ARE YOU SUFFERING
WITH RHEUMATISM !?
What a Well known Man
SAYS About Tt

Rome, N. w am. glad indeed
to relate the wonderful experience
l have had with Doctor Pierce s
Anuric kidney and backache) Tablets.
Some time ago l began to suffer with
rheumatism. 1t first started in my
shoulders and shifted down my arms
into my hands, and they swelled and
became so stiff that | could scarcely
grip or lift anything. The pains also
went down into my hips and lower
limbs and the joints became stiff so
that 1 could not get around to do my
work. l was so bad that l was con-
templating the selling out OF my bust
ness, thinking l was not going to get
better, when l saw the AnuTic Tablets
advertised and decided to give them
a trial. The swelling soon left my
hands and | could use them as before;
the stiffness left my joints, also the
pain, and l was again attending to my
work as l did before had the attack.
l consider 'Anuric a most excellent
medicine for rheumatic conditlOns."-
John Z. Drake, 307 n. James Street.
You better buy 0An-uric" now at
your neighborhood drug store, or
send l0c. for trial pkg. to DR.. Pierce,

write for free medical advice.
