Retreating Russian armies bid far
not to stop until they reach the line
EelG before the big offensive of last
year. The Germans announce they
took TarnOpol. Despite the retro
grade movement official and unoffi-
cial Russian dispatches are not pes

factors: The Germans admittedly
have not enough men to make q gen.
eral offensive in the east and are
afraid to take them from the west.
Russia has dependable reserves with
which she can replace disloyal SOL
diers at the front as soon as they are
weeded out.
Entente superiority in the West
was again illustrated by the French
winning in the long draw-Out strug.

Everyone has uric acid in the system,
but naturally in small quantities. Elk
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-
initiates and the urate salts are carried
by the blood to the solid tissue structure,
causing backache, lumbago, rheuma-
tiam, dropsy, ~drowsiness, and tired
feeling.
To overcome the trouble Is only o
matter Of toning up the kidneys, and this
Is best done by a treatment with Anuric,
three times a day. Anuric is o recent

On certain days he took alcoholic drink
