Old Looks?
(BY DIR. I. n. sAuTH)

Persons suffering from too much uric
acid in the system frequently look older
than they should. They age faster and
the appearance Of gray hair OF baldhead
in early years is, indeed, often a sign Of
uric acid. The face appears lean and
haggard, lines and wrinkles appearing in
young men or women.
The best way to combat this prema-
ture age and the obstruction TO the
arteries and faulty circulation is of the
simplest: Drink copiously Of pure water
between meals. This will not make YOU
fAt, as it is only the water taken with
the meals hat %fattens. Obtain at any
drug store a small package OF Anuric,
which is to be taken before meals, in
order to expel the uric acid from the
system. The painful effects Of backache,
lumbago, rheumatism, govt, due to uric
acid in the blood should quickly disappear
after treatment with Anuric.
