URIC ACID ono THE sYSTEm
By LEE n. SMITH, MD.

Uric acid isrnow generally recognized
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 disorlered 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 ind place to lodge, i'm form OF
urate salts. The thing TO remember ia
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 il the first thing to do? You must
get that excess uric acid out of your
system, which can be done by taking
Anuric Tablets, the splendid remedy
which DIR. Pierce, of Buffalo, NJ. Y,
has put on sale in the drug stores al
q low price. Anuric Tablets (made
double strength), when taken into the
system as medicine, have the peculiar
power of dissolving the uric acid de-
posted there. Drop bit of sugar or
salt into hot water, and it win dis
appear. 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
y eat the right foods and live the
right kind of life, but DIR. Pierce viii
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.

The legislature Of 1915, evidently
dominated by West Florida, selected
Pensacola as the place to hold the
Florida centennial. The Star and a
few other papers objected, for the
good reason that Pensacola is at the
far end of the state, and compare
lively few people in the state could
attend it. No attention was paid to
the objection. and no attention was
paid to the centennial, either, for
when the date arrived-one day last
month-there was no celebration, in
Pensacola Or elsewhere. Tt would have
been an excellent idea to have had a
centennial celebration at the South
Florida Fair in Tampa in February
the Star made a suggestion to that
effect hut as the Tampa people did
not decide to have the fair until a
few months ago they probably
thought they had no time to make the
arrangements. However, there will
