DJHLY HEALTH TALKS
A WORD A30TJT THE KIDNEYS
BY" DOCTOR WATSON1.
People are easily frightened when
ihcythink soniethir.p is the matter with
their lungs or heart, and well they may
be; but few people understand the
dappers or diseased kidneys. These or
gans have a duty of vital importance to
perform, and if they are diseased, there
is no telling how or when the symp
toms may appear. The kidneys are
Illters. ami when they are healthy they
remove the poisons from the blood and
purify it. When the kidneys arc (Ms
eased, tho poisons are spread every
where, and 011 of these poisons is uric
acid. The uric acid is carried all
through the system and deposited in
various places, in the form of urate
salts in the feet, ankles, wrists and
back often formins bap:: under the
eyes. Sometimes the resulting: trouble
is called rheumatism, lurnbapo. sciatica
and backache. Finally, conic stone in
the bladder, diabetes and Prlfrht's dis
ease. Dr. Pierce, of P.uffalo. N. Y.. in recent
years, discovered that a certain com
bination of remedies would dissolve uric
acid (unite salts) in the system. He
found this combination to be harmless,
so that he made it up in tablets, of
double strength, and called them Anuric
Tablets. They dissolve uric acid in
the human system as hot coffee dis
solves susar. If you have uric acid
troubles, don't delay in taking Anuric
Tablets, which can be secured in the
druyr ston-r. You can write Dr. Pierce,
too, and he will tell you what to eat and
how to live so that more uric acid will
not form in your system. Dr. Pierce
will not charjre for this adce. Adv.

A BRIGHT SPOT IN
THE DAY'S NEWS
Dr. George S. Beresford, o
Owensville, Ind., was elected
township trustee at the Novem
ber election. The days rolled
past until it was time for the
doctor to take office.
But when the day came for
him to be sworn into office, he
was too busy for the function.
Most everyone had the "flu"
and he was so busy giving them
quinine and aspirin and he
didn't have time to qualify for
office.
So Warwick Mack, whose
term as trustee had expired,
stuck on the job and will hold it
down until the doctor finds time
to get away from his patients to
take the oath of office.

When the doctor came he diagnosed
the case of embolism, or the pat'lng of
a blood-clot In the heart from a broken

Col. Roosevelt felt so well on Satur
day that he did considerable work. The
colonel seemed to be feeling better than
at any time for a week and planned to
do more work today.
Was TTj Ob Sunday.
On Sunday Col. Roosevelt was up and
about as usual.
Among the first members of the fami
ly to arrive at Sagamore Hill during
the morning were Mrs. Douglas Robin
son, a sister of the late Col. Roosevelt.
Theodore Iouglas Roblnron. a nephew,
and W". F.mlen Roosevelt, a brother.
They were followed by Miss Strieker.
Joseph Bishop and Klon Maker, treas
urer of the old progressive party.
Shortly after his arrival Kmlen Roose

private and that the first services
would be held at Sagamore Hill, after
which the body would be taken to Christ

Where Sons Are.

American army of occupation in Ger

is with the American forces in France.
Mrs. Roosevelt bore up wonderfully
under the shock. Although her grief
was deep and profound she did not col
lapse nor become hysterical.
Dr. G. W. I'aller, of Oyster Hay, who
had been attending Col. Roosevelt, gave
this version of his death.
Up to about four o'clock Col. Roose
velt had been sleeping soundly and
breathing regularly. Just after 4 o'clock
the servant, who. was sitting at the foot
of the bed, noticed that the breathing
was apparently stopped. He touched
the colonel on the shoulder but there
was no response. Instantly the nurse
was called, and it was found that death
had already set in.
