Weekly Health Talks
/ A Word About the
Kidneys
Kidneys
BY DOCTOR WATSON.

People are easily frightened when they
think something is the matter with their
lungs or heart, and we'll they may be; but
few people understand the dangers of dis
eased kidneys. These organs have duty
of vital Importance to perform, and if they
are diseased, there is no telling how or
where the symptoms may appear. The
kidneys are filters, and when they are
healthy they remove the poisons from the
blood and purify it. When the kidneys
are diseased, the poisons are spread every
where, and one of these poisons is uric
acid. The uric acid is carried all through
the system and deposited in various places,
in the form cf urate salts-in the feet,
ankles, wrists and back-often forming
bags under the eyes. Sometimes the result.
ing trouble is called rheumatism, lumbago,
sciatica and backache Finally, come stone
in the bladder, diabetes and Bright's dis
ease.
DIR. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, in recent
years, discovered that certain combina
tion Of remedies would dissolve uric acid
(urate salts) in the system. He found this
combination to be harmless, so that he
made it up in tablets, of double strength,
and called them Anuric Tablets. They
dissolve uric acid in the human system as
hot coffee dissolves sugar. If you have
uric acid troubles. don't delay in taking
Anuric Tablets, which can be secured in
the drug stores. You can write DR.. Pierce,
too, and he will tell you what to eat and
how to live so that more uric acid will not
form in your system. DR.. Pierce will not
charge for thie advice.

The thrilling war pictures that will
be put upon the screen in the Opera
House tomorrow Thursday night
will attract large number Of people.
In addition to the interest that is felt
in the scenes of wreck and ruin
wrought in northern France by the
heartless Huns, the object for which
the money is to be used will appeal
to our people. 1t will be used by the
D. A. R. to purchase bronze tablet
on which will be inscribed the names
of the soldiers who died and were
killed in the service Of their country.
Is not this cause that will appeal

Hog Cholera in County.

Farmers of the county are asked
by the officials of the Departn: n:ent of
Agriculture to cooperate in the pro-
ject to keep down hog cholera. This
can be done by first calling veteri-
marian or the county agent if there is
sickness in the herd. Next, if there
are any deaths, by all means burn or
bury the carcass, and get your neigh
Dor to do likewise. Then, too, use all
sanitary precaution towards keeping
the hogs in a clean lot or run. Be
careful about dogs eating with the
hogs, for dogs are very bad to carry
disease, also make sport of shooting
the dirty buzzard, which also, is a
dangerous carrier.

In order to bring about a speedy
termination of the World War, thus
saving the lives of hundreds of thou
sands of the flower of American man
hood, our country did not spare mon
ey. Ships were constructed on the
largest possible scale, guns were
made in almost countless numbers,
airships were being made ready to
ship across by the tens of thousands,
tanks were being constructed for
every mile of battle front, munitions
were being provided in unprecedent-

were purchased to meet every posi-
BILE need. Did not our government
act wisely by adopting such a policy?
Were it not better to spend American
dollars than to needlessly spill Amer

An Unsettled Question.

Two eminent authorities differ on a
question that is old as the hills: Prof.
Massey, of the Progressive Farmer,
saws it makes no difference whether
you plant Irish potatoes in the light
or the dark of the moon, and Editor
Wallace, the Nestor of the South
Carolina press, says: eff the moon
can make the tides of the great
oceans that cover three-fourths OF
the earth's surface, why may it not
affect a potato patch?" Our practice
has somewhat ignored the scientific
views of both cf these high authorl-
ties, in that W plant potatoes as
early in March as we can secure a
darkey to do the work, the condition
of soil permitting. We are admonish-
ed by Mr.. Emerson to "hitch our wag-
on to a STAR" but we haven't taken
up much time with the moon.
