END OF BAKERS
STRIKE IS NEAR

CHICAGO, May 2.-Only one appar-
emit vital difference today stood in the
way Of the settlement of the Chicago
bakers strike and hope was expressed
that the strikers and the bread manu-
facturers would reach an agreement
shortly.
strikers, whose walkout last Saturday
night has closed nearly one hundred
bakeries, among them the largest in
the city, specified that the bakers be
permitted to approve or dismiss the
shop foremen.
Thee mployers have refused to grant
this demand but have conceded to 50
weekly increase in wages and are rep
resented as being willing to agree
on other questions.

Why Rheumatism Comes
With Cold Weather
fBy DR.. VALENTINE Mo.

by DR.. Valentine Mott Pierce, NJ. d.
4 close connection exists between
these two sold weather and rheumatism.
Prof. Alex Haig. of London, has the
most followers in the medical profession
in the belief that the presence in the
system OF uric acid, or its salts in excess
is the real cause of rheumatism. Every
one has recognized the difference in the
appearance OF their water as soon as it
gets cold; there is often copious sedi-
ment OF "brickdust."
Several causes may lead up to an ac-
cumulation of uric acid III the system,
which, in turn. cause rheumatism or
govt, or creaky joins, swollen fingers, or
painful Joints. For one reason the skin
does not throw off the uric acid, by pro-
fuse sweating as in the hot weather, and
the kidneys are unable to take care of
the double burden. Another reason is
that people do not drink as much water
in cold weather as in summer, which
helps to flush the kidneys. Again, they
eat more meat in cold weather, and
some people are so susceptible that they
soon develop rheumatism after eating
meat.
At all such times people should drink
copiously of hot water, say, pint morn
ing and night, and take Anurie, double
strength three or four times a day. This
Anuric comes in tablet form and can be
had at almost any drug store. 1t dis
solves the uric acid in the system and
carries it outward. l would advise every |
one to take Anuric occasionally, and con- |
tinue for three or four weeks, and in that 1
way avoid rheumatism, govt and many I
