DAILY HEALTH TALKS
Better be Careful About Your
Kidneys
BY N. B. COOK, NJ. D.

Foods taken into the stomach 60 through
various chemical changes, and some of
these changes are poisons that must be
sifted out and disposed of. 1t is the duty
Of the kidneys to do this. When the kid
neys do not fully perform their vital work,
death may be only few hours away.
Happily, Nature has provided warning
alarms telling people when their kidneys
are not well. These warnings come IN the
form Of dragging pains in the small OF the
back, weak stomach, low spirits, chills,
nausea, headache, scanty urine and FREE
quent desire to pass it, short breath, numb
ness, cramps, coated tongue, bad breath,
puffs under the eyes, thin blood, dry skin,
ringing in the ears, spots before the eyes
and many other symptoms. Ali come
from the one cause of kidneys that are not
filtering the poisons out of the system. To
overcome these troubles, DR.. Pierce, OF
Buffalo, N. Y, compounded what he calls
Anuric Tablets. No other kidney mediy
cine is its equal in giving relief and re-
establishing healthful work in the kidneys,
The treatment is very simple as you need
nothing except water when taking Anulic
Tablets-a glass of water with each tablet.
This washes and fushes the kidneys while
the medicine itself rs dissolving the uric
acid poisons and driving them out.
Anuric Tablets are made double strength,
SO that they dissolve uric acid the same as
hot water dissolves salt or sugar. Most
people need Anuric Tablets because most
people have uric acid. Better get that
poison out of your body for safety's sake,
and better begin today
To gently and agreeably coax the bowels
back into normal activity, take DR..
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They are Just
as good for costiveness as his Anuric Tab
lets are good for kidney disorders. and that
sc saving great deal.
