Killed BY Poisons

All scientists agree that poisonous
products in the blood are eliminated by
the kidneys and liver. The kidneys act
as q kind of filter for these products.
When the kidneys are changed or de-
generated, by disease or old age, then
these poisons are retained in the body.
II we wish TO prevent old age coming
on too soon, or IL we want to increase
our chances for a long life, DR.. Pierce Of
the InvaIids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y, says
that you should drink plenty Of water
daily between meals to flush the kidneys.
Then procure at your nearest drug store
Anuric. Ut costs but 60c.) This Anuric
drives the uric acid out. Scientific men
have learned that in govt, also rheuma-
tism, poisonous uric acid crystals are de-
posted in or about the joints, in the
muscles-where inflammation Is set up.
If VI wish to keep our kidneys in the
best condition q diet Of milk and vege-
tables, with only little meat once a day,
Is the most suitable. Drink plenty Of puro
water, take Anurie three times a day for
a month. An-u-ric is many times more
potent than lithia and dissolyes uric
acid almost as hot water does sugar.
You can obtain a trial package Of
Anuric BY writing Doctor v. NJ. Pierce,
Buffalo, N. Y, enclosing ten cents.
