"Toxic poisons in the blood are thrown
out by the kidneys. The kidneys act as

drink plenty of pure water and take a
little Anuric," says the world-famed DR..

worn-out feeling, the simple way to over
come these disorders is merely to obtain
little Anuric from your nearest drug
gist and you will quickly notice the grand
results. You will find it many times
more potent than lithia, and that it
dissolves uric acid as hot water does

Denver, April 3.-The challenge OF
war was answered by 10000 men and
women of Denver and Colorado in the
Auditorium Saturday night. They
rose, 10000 of them, representing
every class and condition of Colorado's
million people. to urge upon the ma
ton universal military training and
upon Congress "the full support to
every step that may be taken by the
administration to vindicate the ma
tional honor and the national right"
They declared that Germany had

bodied in a resolution forwarded to
Washington, carried with them q
pledge of loyalty and service from the
West. Church joined with state, law
with education in urging war, II war
becomes necessary to carry out the
principles to which the United States
has committed herself. An Episcopal
bishop. black-robed priest, Prot
estant pastor. a Jewish rabbi, the
pi esident of great university, an edu-
Gator of international prominence, a
governor, a mayor, and two lawyers
combined to draw in clean-cut lines
the picture of the world crisis and
the duty of this country.
From the moment Ralph w. Smith,
executive chairman, called the meet
Ing to order until Rabbi William 8.
Friedman closed with his prayer for
benediction, the enthusiasm grew un-
til the people stood and cheered wild
ly, waved thousands of flags and
shouted themselves hoarse.
They cheered T. j. O'Donnell, prin-
cipal speaker OF the evening, who
urged that the American flag be car
ried to the battle lines in France and
wave ahead of legion in pursuit of
the helmeted invader as he recrosses
his own frontier. his back turned to-
ward the banners of democracy"
They cheered as each speaker de-
nounced the suggestion that the
United States back down from her
avowed position in this crisis.
They cheered loudly when Russia
was welcomed into the fold of democ-
racies. They rose and cheered again
when the Fort Logan military band
broke into the strains of the "MarseiI-
laise" at the close of plea for France.
Every move that looked toward pre-
paredness. every utterance that con-
tanned the spirit of fighting against
violations of the nations rights, met
with united. unanimous, complete sup

not a protest was heard.

tion Tuesday was made in impas-
stoned speeches before more than
5000 persons at mass meeting in

iasm, punctuated by cheers and ap-
plause. While there were hundreds
of middle-aged men and women and
girls in the crowd, .he major portion
of it was composed of young men of
conscription age.
How strong is the sentiment of
the people of New Orleans was il
]ustrated in the great applause for
Premier T. C. Norris, of the Pro-
vince Of Manitoba, Canada, who is
in New Orleans with the jefferson
Highway party from Winnipeg, and
was the last speaker. The applause
lasted several minutes, and broke
out afresh with his assertion that the

that right is might against the
kaiser's of might is right, and that
the war must be ended soon upon
the battlefields of Flanders or else it
would be transferred to North
America.
