Millions of mothers give "California

What Is Uric oAcid?

Everyone has uric acid in the system,
but naturally in small quantities. Ex-
cessive amount is caused by eating too
much meat and foods that ferment in
stomach. The kidneys, being the filters
of the blood, are supposed to separate
and throw the poisons out of the system.
Weak, tired and overworked kidneys
fail to do this, hence the uric acid accu-
mulates and the urate salts are carried
by the blood to the solid tissue structure,
causing backache, lumbago, rheuma-
tism, dropsy, drowsiness, and tired
feeling.
To overcome the trouble is only a
matter of toning up the kidneys, and this
is best done by a treatment with Anuric,
three times day. Anuric is a recent
discovery of DR.. Pierce of Buffalo, N. Y,
and can be obtained at any drug store.
Experience taught Doctor Pierce that
Anuric is a more powerful agent than
ithia in dissolving uric acid, and it is
then carried out of the system.

to men and women a marvellous story.
Heaven has no JOY in the things that
alright the mind or soul of man.
Heaven sends us no message that
leaves a dominant tone of gloom or
sorrow in our lives. BE not alright
ed; He is risen." Yet such a message
brought JOY only to those who believ-
ed it and accepted the angels testt-
mony about their risen Lord.
Is your heart one from which the
glad story of the new life in Christ
brings no answering throb of joy, NO
uplift of faith and courage? The grave
Is one place where Christ is not. He is
not here; He is risen. Those who real
ly look for Jesus are sure to find Him
instead of death; are sure to find Joy
where they look for sorrow; are as
sured of victory where they expected
and feared defeat. BY His signal VIC
tory He has stripped the grave of Its
terrible power over us and our loved
ones.
If we come to a sacred grave today
with fearful vision, with fragrant
flowers and with hungry hearts, let
our fears be quieted, and our very souls
exalted with the peans of victory that
are the dominant tones sof the Easter
time.
