Uric Acid Poisoning!

The most eminent physicians recog-
nize that uric acid stored up in the system
is the cause Of rheumatism, that this uric
acid poison is present in the joints, mus
Giles, or nerves. By experimenting and
analysis at the Invalids' Hotel and Sur
gical Institute in Buffalo, N. Y, DR..
Pierce discovered combination Of native
remedies that he called Anuric-which
drives out the uric acid from the system,
and in this way the pain, swelling and in
fammation subside. If you are sufferer
from rheumatism, backache, pains here
or there, you can obtain Anuric at any
drug store and get relief from the pain
and ills brought about by uric acid; or
send DR.. Pierce 1Oc. for trial pkg. Anuric
which you will find many times more
potent than Gthia and eliminates uric
acid almost as hot water melts sugar. A
short trial will convince you.
Anuric is regular insurance and life
saver for all big meat eaters and those
who deposit hme-salts in their joints.

COcOanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition be careful what you
wash it itn.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alikali This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Just plain mulsified
cccoanut oil (Which is pure and en-
tirely greaseless), is much better than
the Eost expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing, as
this can't possibly injure the hair.
Simp'. moiSten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two tea
spooniuls will make an abundance of
rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroughly. Tie lath.
er rinses out easily, and removes ev-
cry particle of dust, di :, dandruff and
excessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly, a. it leaves it fine I'd
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man
as.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. 1t is very
cheap, and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family FOR
months.-Adv.

that while the city would like to

ice, having motorized both the police

government to solve.

Ills opinion an increase in the tax
ate will be necessary to make up

AIRY to make up this deficit. A nine

President Bavis said today. however,
rat he would oppose any increase IN
tie tax rate unless such action was
absolutely necessary. He added that
II his opinion reductions could be
ade in the 1918 appropriations to
make up the pending deficit thus
