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

Foods taken into the stomach 60 through
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 fire.
quent desire to pass it, short breath, numb
ness, cramps, coated tongue bad breath,
puffs under the eyes, thin blood, dry skin,
ringing in tho ears, spots before the eyes
and many other symptoms. All 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 medi-
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 Anuric
Tablets glass Of water with each tablet.
This washes and ffushes the kidneys while
the medicine itself is 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
oack into normal activity, take DR..
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They are Just

cts are good for kidney disorders. and th&

That the whitest hot points of the
entire war, as far as trench warfare
is concerned, was the action of April
2O-21 at Seicheprey, in the Toul Sec
tor, and repetition of this engage
ment at Xivray, in the same sector,
on July 1918, Is the statement Of
Captain Ernest C. Porter of Norfolk,
Va, who went over with the first
batch of American soldiers and was
attached to the 26th division during
the entire progress of the war
Captain Porter is spending several
days in the city.
When seen at a local hotel this
morning he told the, following story:
There were big things going on
in different parts of the western
front at that time and the two little
engagements got by without more
than passing notice. However, they
were the most concentrated actions
l have ever seen, and have been in
the scrap in every sector occupied
by the Americans.
These two villages, Seicheprey
and Xivray, faced famous Hill No.
$3.50, where the French in attack lost
10000 men in 20 minutes. That is
what they put us up against and as
soon as the Germans found that the.
Americans were in line in front of
them, they put in the Prussian
guards. They wanted to put over
some rough stuff and throw scare
into the Yankees. But there was
nothing going on.
"In line when the attack was
launched by the Prussians was one

hand it to those Yankees; they were
wonders. After the thing got going,

my glasses. l saw him fire with re-
volver time after time and every
time he pulled the trigger, some
Prussian dropped. In talking with
some Of the men of his platoon later,
learned that he accounted for at
least 15 Germans and his buddies
said that every Prussian was shot
right through the head
Now that hill 30S is a high one
and steep. The enemy is on top of
the hill and the Americans in the
valley below. They are shooMng
right down our throats, but we beat
them. Here is the official report of
Major General Edwards, commanding
the 26th division in this fight:
"At o'clock on the morning of !
April 20, 1918, the enemy opened on
our sector in the neighborhood of
