Daily Health Talks
a WORD ABOUT TIE KIDNEYS
BY DOCTOR WATSON.

People are easily frightened when
they think something is the matter with
their lungs or heart, and well they
may be; but few people understand
the dangers of diseased 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 of urate
salts = in the feet, ankles, wrists and
back often forming bags under the
eyes. Sometimes the resulting trouble
is called rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica
and backache. Finally, come stone
in the bladder, diabetes and Bright's
disease.
DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, in recent
years, discovered that certain COM
bination 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
win not charge for this advice.

Suffrage for White Women
Only In South Carolina.
tBy The Negro Associated Press).

(By The Negro Associated Press).
Columbia, s. c., June 12.-W. p,
Pollock of Cheraw, formerly United
States Senator, in commencement
address at one of the colleges here
discussed way to provide suffrage
for the white women of the state
but eliminate the ColUred women.
He would base registration on le-
gitimacy of birth, extending back
three generations. His proposed
amendment would read:
"No person shall be eligible to vote
in this State, unless such person
shall present registration certifi-
cate to the managers Of the election
and no registration certificate shall
be issued to any person. unless such
person shall present sufficient evil
dence to the registration officials that
such person is not an illegitimate
to the third generation"
1t is well known that the white
men of the South are responsible fol
SO per cent of whatever illegitimacy
there may be.
