the year, many stocks falling to the
lowest records in many years.
Steel common broke from 95B. the
high for the session. to sSA; Bethle-

recoveries on short covering made
comparatively small headway against
the big losses of the session.

MANCHESTER, November S.-The
British chancellor Of the exchequer,

that Great Britain could look to the

continued the chancellor. Il can say
with certainty that it is not going to
bring us to our knees.
Referring to the Italian situation.
Mr. Bonar-Law said:
I'VE are watching with the deepest
anxiety what Is happening In Italy
with deep anxiety, but not without
hope"
He believed the Italian army would
be able to- stop the German advance
until aid had come from Great Britain
and France.
Try to Brighten Investors.
"A determined effort is being made
by a small section to frighten deposit
tors. particularly small investors. from
lending money to the state by saying
that it is unsafe" he said. Nothing
could be more absurd. It is also non
sense to say that the debt would be
repudiated. If we lose this war it
might be. No investment in this king
dom would be safe If that happened.
1t would not be the loss of our money
we would think about then"
The meeting itself. said Mr. Bonar-
Law. was proof that, whatever 1t cost.
the nation did not intend that that
should be the end. He asserted that
the war loan launched early this year
was better than the government had
expected. The government had thought
of raising another loan this autumn.
but there were reasons which made it
desirable to try other methods. He
had. therefore. tried the experiment of
getting weekly the money needed. and
the bankers were eager that this plan
should be adopted.

Uric Acid!.

Ever since the discovery of Scheele in
1775 that uric acid was found within the
body-most eminent physicians agree
that rheumatism is caused by it; also
many distressing symptoms as head
ache, pain in back, stomach distress,
swollen feet and ankles, gout, etc.
1t was DR.. Pierce of the Invalids' Hotel,
Buffalo, N.Y., who discovered new agent
called Anuric, a harmless remedy
that if taken before meals will carry off
the uric acid from the system and in
this way the pains and aches, the creaky
joints and all the distressing symptoms
of rheumatism and other maladies dis
appear. You can easily prove this your
self, by obtaining Anuric at almost any
drug store, or send DR.. Pierce 1Oc. for
trial package. Try it and be convinced
that Anuric is many times more active
than lithia and eliminates uric acid as hot
water melts sugar.
