Weekly Health Talks
URIC ACID IN THE SYSTEM
BY LEE II. 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. Tho
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 dlzzy--but the trouble Is not
where the pain appears.
The trouble is in the kidneys, and
what is the first thing to doS 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 a 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,
