FAUE Fuu!L
A FIGHT FOR LIFE
fust at the Critical Moment He May Feel
Dizzy A "Stitch" in the Side Or Back.
It has been light or die for
many of us in the past and the
lucky people are those who have
suffered, but who are now well
because they heeded nature's
warning signal in time to correct
.heir trouble with that wondcr
- ul'new discovery of Dr. Pierce's
ailed Amine (anti-uric). You
hould promptly heed these
varnings, some of whic
dizzy spells, backache, irregtil
ity ol the urine or the pain
ful twinges of rheumatism,
sciatica or lumbago. To de
lay may make possible the
dangerous forms of kidney
disease, such as Bright's
disease, diabetes or stone in
the bladder.
To overcome these dis
tressing conditions take
plenty of exercise in the
open air, avoid a heavy
meat diet, drink freely of
water, and at each meal
take Doctor Pierce's Amine
Tablets (double strength).
You will, in a short time,
find that you are one of the
firm indorsers of Anuric, as are thousands of neighbors.
Step into the drug store and ask for Anuric, or send to
Pierce's Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y ten cents for trial n
age.
Anuric (anti-uric) many times more potent than lithia, "
solves uric acid as hot coffee melts sugar," and thus elimin
the irritating poisons from the body and you get well
strong.
