death may be only q 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,
pufis under the eyes, thin blood, dry skin,
ringing in the ears, spots before the eyes
and many other symptoms. All come
from the one cause of kidneys that are not

overcome these troubles, DR.. Pierce, Of

Anuric Tablets. No other kidney medi-

The treatment IS very simple. as you need

fuel consumption was less for the we'll
known reason that any pneumatic-tired
vehicle requires less power.
Another factor that was much In
favor of the pneumatics was the alb
sence Of injury to loads of fragile ma
terials. Perlshable goods suffer less
In pneumatic-tired truck than they
do In a solid-tlred vehicle, even though
the latter go at half the speed.
Lighting was another problem.
First we had kerosene lamps and
then came the carbide tank.
with some reason there was OBJ
lection TO this on the ground that II
was dangerous.
"A lot Of people had to be convinced
that If the car got into smashup the
gas tank would not explode.
ut sounds ridiculous at this late
date, but 1t is fact, that although
every motorist wanted to get away
from the drudgery and the danger of
cranking his car there was a tremen-
dous opposition to every form of self
starter.
"We expected and were prepared for
battle when we decided that the
right thing for a light, high-speed
truck was pneumatic tires, but we have
always believed 1t was our duty to give
the buyer the best our experience die
tated and so we went through with 1t.
Everyone now admits the pneu-
matic-tired truck is Inevitable, because
1t is the solution of most Of the truck
ing problems, so we feel well repaid
for our missionary work."
