URIC ACID IN THE SYSTEM
BY LEE 81. SMITH, NJ. D.

Uric acid is now generally recog-
nized as the cause of more diseases
than was heretofore believed. When
the kidneys are out of order uric acid
accumulates within the body in super
abundance. The disordered kidneys
do not filter the poisons out of the
blood, as they ought to do, and so the
poisons remain in the blood and float
around until they find a place to
lodge, In form of urate salts. The
thing to remember is that you may
have rheumatism in any part of the
body-you may have pains anywhere
your back may ache and your head
may be dizzy-but the trouble is not
where the pain appears.
The trouble is in the kidneys, and
what is the first thing to do? You must
get that excess uric acid out of your sys-
TEN, which can be done by taking Anuric
Tablets, the splendid remedy which DR..
Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, has put on sale
in the drug stores at low price. Anuric
Tablets (made double strength), when
taken into the system as medicine, have
the peculiar power of dissolving the uric
acid deposited there. Drop bit Of sugar
or salt into hot water, and it will disap-
pear. In precisely the same way do these
Anuric Tablets dissolve uric acid OF
course, after Kidding the system of uric
acid, it may return again unless you eat
the right foods and live the right kind of
life, but DR.. Pierce will advise you fully
on proper food and correct living if you
write and ask him. He makes no charge
for such advice. Take Anuric Tablets to-
day, by all means, and get that uric acid
out of your system. Don't, don't, don't,
put the matter off.

ants, Engdahl, Germer, Tucker and
Kruse, convicted of violating the es-
pionage act and conspiring to OBJ
struct the United States war program,
were sentenced by Judge lands to
twenty years imprisonment each at

cording to report, were striving 70 re-
tain their old military jobs by organ
izing a strong movement agairst Po-
land.
General Denilxine and his ant'soviet
army, 1t was announced, had reached
the Caspian, having scattered a great
body of anarchist troops ard captured
1000 prisoners and large quantities
of material. In Esthonia, however, the
soviet armies, which had resumed
their activities with general attack,
were said to be making considerable
progress, especially in the region
Pskov. This continuation Of hostlli-
ties by the Lenine-Trotzky forces again
makes doubtful the holding Of the pro-
posed conference at Princes Island.
Moreover, three of the Russian govern
ments, those of Siberia, Archangcl and
southern Russia, have formally de-
clined to take part In the conference,
stating that there can be 10 concilia-
ton between them and the bolshcviki,
who are denounced as traitors and To-
mentors of anarchy
Information from Petrograd shows
that opposition to the rule of the Lee
nine anarchists is increasing among
the more intelligent workers. Sixty
thousand workmen In that city are on
strike, demanding the end of civil war
and the establishment of free trade.
The United States and G. eat Britain
have announced that their forces in
northern Russia are to be withdrawn
when weather conditions permit, and
will be REINFORCED to facilitate this
movement. Meanwhile those who have
been worried by alarmist stores of
the distressing conditions under which
our boys there are existing may be re

The constitution of the league of ma
lions, as drafted, has been received
with general approval in England and
Italy, while in France the prevalent
feeling is that 1t is a good beginning
for a project by which there is hope of
establishing world peace. In America
opinion is widely divergent, and ad-
verse criticism is based on the fear
that the United States is about TO sur
render the Monroe Doctrine. Presi-
dent Wilson, by wireless, asked that
there he no discussion of the league,

The arrogance Of the Huns has
reached high point in loud objections
to the league Of nations. IN the Ger
man press. Some newspapers even
urge that Germany should have moth
ing to do with the league, but others,
while severely crticizlng some of the
proposed statutes, demand that &c
many be permitted to join the league
simultaneously with the other powers
1t is taken for granted by the allied
nations that Germany will be admit
ted to the league at some future date,
but only after she has given sufficient
guaranty Of her sincerity. AS Fl ofes-
sor Larnaude, dean of the PARIS law
faculty, says "Surely when Germany
enters a league of nations she will
agree to sign every undertaking we de-
sire; but we know what undertakings
mean to the Germans. Did they not
sign n treaty guaranteeing the neu-
trallty of BelgiumT
This attitude of distrust, which is
shared by all the allied nations, is rec
ognized as justifable by one Teuton,
at least, Kurt Eisner, premier Of
varia. The Germans, he says, Cid not
realize to what extent the allies CON
sdered the German revolution pure
comedy and he said that it will be
thus while the German leaders remain
the same as those who conducted Ger
many's odlous war policy.

 Edward Morris. president of Morris & Co.,. said:
 The present agitation against the packing industry is 99 per cent. pre- meditated, cold blooded cunning pro paganda engineered by men of social istic tendencies, who are, seeking to bolster up unjust and iniquitous con- clustons."
 In his statement J. Ogden Armour declared that this latest report of the commission is both a re-hash of infer ences and unfounded deductions con- tained in similar reports.' The com mission. he said. is avowedly behind the legislation now pending in Wash ington which. in effect. will cripple the packing industry"
