Kidney & Co.
(BY DIR. J. h. wATsoN)

(BY DIR. ]. n. WATeON)
The kidneys and the skin work in har-
mony. They're companions, the skin
being the second partner. If we are
anxious to keep well and preserve the
vitality Of the Kidneys and, also, free the
blood from no1ous elements, we must
pay special attention to good action of
the skin and to see that the kidneys are
flushed 90 as to eliminate the poisons
from the blood.
Sweating, by hard work or in bath,
st least once week, helps to keep the
lin and kidneys in good condition. Flash
tho kidneys by drinking plenty Of pure
water with meals and between meals.
Occasionally obtain at the nearest drug
store Anuric, which win help flush the
Kidneys and the intestinss. You win find
that Anuric il many times more active
than ithia and that it dissolves uric
acid - bot water does sugar.

view he is joined by practically all
