Those OF Us who are past middle ago
are prone to eat too much meat and in
consequence deposit lime-salts in the
arteries, veins and joints. We often
suffer from twinges of rheumatism or
lumbago, sometimes from govt, swollen
hands or feet. There is no longer the
slightest need of this, however, as the
new prescription, rAnuric," is bound
to give immediate results as it is many
times more potent than lithia, in Kidding

tanned at almost any drug store, by

BEER AND BILE.
Prof. w. A. Osborne, distinguished
chemist, explains, In a very illuminat-
ing way, that the liver is especially
susceptible to alcohol poisoning, be-
cause the alcohol, before 1t is elimiRat-
ell from the body, repeatedly assaults
that organ. every one knows" said
Doctor Osborne, that the liver forms
bile, and that bile is poured into the
bowel. Now, when alcohol is taken 1t
passes into the stomach and from
there to the bowel, or small intestine,
and is absorbed there. Everything
that is absorbed from the stomach or
the bowel has to go to the liver, and
nothing is allowed to enter the gen.
eral circulation until it has been prop
erly sifted and treated in the biggest
organ we possess-the liver. 1t has
been found, In the case of alcohol, that
when alcohol has been absorbed In the
bowel it reaches the liver, and the
liver really does not know what to do
with it. There is practically no pro.
vision in nature for the utilization OF
alcohol Ia very significant fact, may
here parenthetically remark).
when alcohol reaches the liver the
liver manages to destroy some, but
great portion Of it is turned out in
the bile, and once more reaches the
bowel, and then the liver, and this
cycle of operations goes on for hours
and possibly days, until the alcohol
is gotten rid of. All this time 1t is
constantly irritating and injuring the
liver, and this explains the fact which
medical science has known for long
time, namely, that the liver is one of
the organs of the body which is singu.
larly susceptible to alcoholic degen.
eracy, and this is the reason why"

SAFE, GENTLE REMEDY
CLEANSES YOUR KIDNEYS

For centuries GOLD MEDAL HARLEM
Oil has been standard household remedy
for kidney, liver, bladder and stomach
trouble, and all diseases connected with
the urinary organs. The kidneys and blad-
der are the most important organs Of the
body. They are the filters, the purifiers of
your blood. If the poisonS which enter
your system through the blood and stom-
ach are not entirely thrown out by the
kidneys and bladder, you are doomed.
WEAKNESS, sleeplessness, nervousness,
despondency, backache, stomach trouble,
headache, pain in loins and lower abdo-
men, gall stones, gravel, difficulty when
urinating, cloudy and bloody urine, rheu-
matism, sciatica and mmbago, all warn you
to look after your kidneys and bladder.
All these indicate some weakness of the
kidneys or other organs or that the enemy
microbes which are always present in your
system have attacked your weak spots.

what you need.
