Dear Mr. Editor Sometime ago I hnd backache very bad ; it would ache just like a toothache. 1 tried a new discovery of Doctor Pierce's, called "Anuric." This is for kidneva and backache. I soon felt relieved of all backache and had no more pain, and I hope others troubled in the same way will try this wonderful new remedy. Yours sincerely, Mrs. Lincoln Stearns. Note: It is now asserted with con fidence that those painful effects due to Uric acid In tho system aro entirely eradi cated. A now remedy, called "Anuric," has bean dlxvered by Dr. Pierre, and is the causa of a drntnaijo outward of the uric acid with which it comes In contact within tho body. It will ward oil back Echo, headache, nd tho darting pains and achos of articular or muscular rheuma tismof thoso diseases which are caused by too much uric acid, such as gout, asthma, sciatica, ronal calculus. "An uric" prolongs life because old peoplo usu ally suller from hardening and thickening of tho walls of tho arteries, due to tho ex cess of uric acid in the blood and tissues. l'r. Pierce, who is director and chief ghysician at the Invalids' Hotel and urgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., has boon testing this wonderful medicine for the rolief. f over-worked and weakened kidneys. Tho relief obtained by sufferers has been so satisfactory that he deter mined to place "Anuric" with theprin clpal druggists In town whoro people could r;ot this roady-to-uso medicine. "Anuric" Is not harmful or poisonous, but aids nature In throwing off those poisons within the body which cause so much suffering, pain and misery. Scien tists assert tliis remedy Is 37 times more potent than lithla. t or uiauoies ana isrignt's Disease this ; remedy Is building up a reputation as good as Dr. Pierce's other well-known medicines which have boen proven rell- able during nearly lifty years, such as Doctor Pierce's Favorite Prescription ! for the Ills of women, Doctor Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, tho liver regulator, and Doctor Ilerco's Uoldcu Modlwil Discovery lot red blood, 3 ) Pa ebra tio Eleventh Annual iose r esnva and triotk Ce at Portland, Oregon June 15, 14, 15, '17 This annual event will be one of the greatest patriotic celebrations ever held iu the Pacific Northwest.
