Simnly to realiz the importance of coming kidney trou ble by its first symptoms, backache or throbs through the kidney region, is money, in one's pocket ns well as years of sickness forestalled. No organ of the body is more easiy deranged than the kidneys. Day in and day out their action is con stant, in separating poison- nun mnttAr frnm thn hlnnn. Most cases of kidnoy trouble may easily be overcome by merely taking a little "Anuric" with the meals. Citizens daily voice their praises of the. merits of "Anuric," the recent discovery of Doctor Pierce, of "Favorite" Prescription" and "Golden Medical Discovery" fame. Here is a letter from Mr. WALTER CARLSON, who Bays: "I suffered for four years with pain in my back. I tried everything there was out but they all failed to help me. I even went to a doctor and he could not cure my backache said it was from the kidneys. A friend of mine advised me to try a bo:d of Dr. Pierce's Anuric Tablets, and oo I did; I used two boxes and my pains were cone. I am not telling any lie, the pain in my back was something terrible. As soon as I would bend over to get something from tho floor I thought my wholo back would burst. "I- would advise sufferers to try two or three boxes of 'Anuric' Tablets.-" Advt. NOTE: Experiments at Dr. Pierce's Hospital for several years proved that "Anuric" is 37 times more potent thnn llthia in removing uric acm irom tno system, as not, tSTJUft ask or "itnurlc" at druggitta, iurio" T. n til iilSiili LwiBlflilMP i whsjMytfwSSiyWiKiil' Concert Today Orchestral Concert by the U. 8. 8eH(wr' Heme Bar, a Stanley Hall at e'eleck.
