A N ASSISTANT director Of a

company arranged with the
butler OF Hollywood mansion to
use the entrance Of the house for a
scene. The mere fact that the as
sistant director arranged it should
have placed the transaction in a sus-
picious light, according to tradition,
but Tod Browning, Universal direc-
tor, went ahead with the prepare
tons for the scene.
Just as the action was about to
take place the bejeweled dowager
who owned the menage came dash
ing around the corner of the house.
She was purple with rage:
"The idea of a vulgar motion pic
ture company using the front door
of my home for a scene" she
stormed.
"Ye Godsl Hoighty Toightyi
Fooey! Phiff-phnaffl G-r-r-rr!" she
snorted.
When the lady had worked her
self into speechlessness, Browning
summoned his assistant director and
berated him as all assistant direc-
tors should be berated:
Il thought I told YOU" he said,
to select beautiful home. This is
not tenement scene. Do you inn
agine that l could use a grotesque
little shantv like this for a Univer-
sal picture?"
Then the good lady, who was real
ly mistress of an imposing mansion,
shook pudgy fists at high heaven
and sputtered until it appeared that
her teeth would abdicate
AS Browning motored grandly
away in search of something little
less like hove" for his scene, the
grandame chased up the boulevard
after his car, shouting out epithets
which, had they been Irish confetti,
would have fractured his skull.

the stage without his knowledge or

to my father and asked for a lead

And when I got part l had to

Weekly Health Talks
URIC ACID IN THE SYSTEM
By LEE 81. sMITH NJ. D.

Uric acid is now generally recos-
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 Anuris
Tablets, the splendid remedy which DR..
Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, has put on SaiS
in the drug stores at low price. Annrie
Tablets (made double strength), when
taken into the system as medicine, havs
the peculiar power of 'dissolving the uric
acid deposited there. Drop bit of sugar
or salt into hot water, and it viii 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 of.
