100 Years Old

"The kidneys play a most important
part in causing premature old age and
death-the more injurious the poisons
passing thru the kidneys the sooner
m decay"-so says a distinguished
physician, who further advises all people
who are past thirty to preserve the vitality
of the kidneys and free the blood from
poisonous elements, such as uric acid
drink plenty of water-sweat some daily
and take Anuric before meals.
This Anuric is put up in tablet
form, and can be obtained at almost
any. drug store. For that backache,
lumbago, rheumatism, rusty" joints,
swollen feet OF hands, due to uric acid
in the blood, Anuric quickly dissolves
the uric acid as hot water does sugar.
Discovered by DIR. Pierce OF Buffalo, N. Y.
Prevent premature old e by simply
slipping q cup of hot water every morning
before breakfast, taking a little Anuric
before meals and live to be a hundred.

EXCELLENT RETURNS
FROM THE CANADIAN
WHEAT CROP
United States Settlers Becoming
Rich on Western Canada
Lands.

The large number of United States
settlers coming to the Western prov
inces Of Canada are easily explained
by the case of Mr.. c. Lacy, late of
Wisconsin and later of Alberta.
Mr.. Lacy came to Canada from Wis
consin in the summer of 1914 with
$ 1900 available cash in his possession.
He rented a half-section of partly i'm
proved land in Alberta and commenced
summer following. He broke 800 acres
with oats, 20 with barley, and 260 with
wheat. Also he had two COWS and 20
head of young live stock. He was for
tunate in buying feed at a bargain and
managed to rent the adjoining quarter
section as pasture.
A few weeks ago he decided to real
i:c his profits-and they amounted to
$4,000 absolutely clear from the crop
and the stock.

file an opinion with the governor.
James Gay Gordon, representing the
Thaw family contended Thaw, having

ly violating the international agree
ment guaranteeing the neutrality of
Belgium, and has continued it by vio-
tating all the dictates of humanity.
Devastation and Deportation.
etThe latest manifestation of this
policy is to be seen in the devastation
and deportations carried out by the
Germans in their forced retreat on the
western front. The chancellor states
that it is because the allies have not
abandoned their blockade and have re-
fused the so-caIed peace offer of Ger
many that unrestricted submarine
warfare was decided on. As to this,
chancellor himself said in the reich
etag when announcing the adoption of
unrestricted submarine war.
Ruthless U-Boat Warfare.
He said that as soon as he him
self, in agreement with the supreme
command. reached the conviction that
ruthless U-boat warfare would bring
Germany nearer to a victorious peace,
then the U-boat warfare would be
started" he continued.
