A Bad Back
Made Good
(Rv L. W. Bower. N. d.

(By Il. w. bower, W. ~
Backache of any kind is often
caused by kidney disorder, which
means that the kidneys are not work
ing properly. Poisonous matter and
uric acid accumulate within the body
in great abundance, over-working the
sick kidneys, hence the congestion of
blood causes backache in the same
manner as a similar congestion in the
head causes headache. You become
nervous, respondent, sick, feverish,
irritable, have spots appearing before
the eyes, bags under the lids and
lack of ambition to do things.
The latest and most effective
means of overcoming this trouble is
to eat sparingly of meat, drink plenty
of water between meals and take a
single Anuric tablet before each
meal for a while.
Simply ask your favorite druggist
for Anuric double strength) if you
aren't feeling up to the standard. If
you have lumbago, rheumatism,
dropsy, begin Immediately this treat
ment with Anuric. Most scientists
and medical men believe that because
of an ver-abundance of uric acid in
the system, uratic salts are deposited
in the tissues and cause rheumatism
and govt.
The physicians and specialists at
DR.. Pierce's Institution in Buffalo,
N. Y, have thoroughly tested Anuric
and have been with one accord sue
cessful in Graduating and throwing
off from the system the uric acid
which accumulates and poisons. Pa
tients having once used Anuric at
this institution have repeatedly sent
back for more.
Such a demand has been created
that Doctor Pierce decided to put
Anuric in the drug stores of this
country in ready-to-use form. 1t
will be their own fault if those suf-
fering from uric acid troubles do not
take advantage of this wonderful
remedy.-Advertisement

THE MESSAGE.

A little group of laughing young
women came scurrying up the
ladder from the promenade, and
the admiral and his companion
sat stonily silent until they had
passed. Then the admiral spoke
again, still in a whisper, but his
voice was under control.

face again. Then he thrust his
handkerchief back into his pocket
and sprang to his feet. "However
it occurred, we must stop it," he
said. "Come,"
"Stop it-but how7'
"There is only one way. Come ~
The admiral hurried down the
ladder, his companion at his heels.
From the upper promenade he de-
scended to the deck below; and
then, without hesitating, climbed
another ladder and stepped over a
low gate which gave entrance to
the first class promenade. The
gate, it is true, bore a sign stating
that second class passengers must
not pass it; but Pachmann did not
even glance at it. He seemed to
know the ship, for he pressed on.
