AN INSURANCE AGAINST SUDDEN DEATH!
Tor Sufferers From Backache, Rheumatism and Kidney Trouble.
Before an Insurance Company will
take a risk on your life the examining
physician will test the urine and re
port whether you are a good risk.
When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog, you suffer from backache, slck-
headache, dizzy spells, or the twinges
and pains of lumbago, rheumatism and
gout. The urine is often cloudy, full
of sediment; channels often get sore
and sleep is disturbed two or three;
times a n igh t This is the time you
should consult some physician of wide
experience— auch as Dr. Pierce of the
Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Institute,
Buffalo, N. Y. Send 10c. for lerge
trial package of “ Anuric.” W rite your
symptoms and send a sample o f urine
for test. Experience has taught Dr.
Pierce that "Anuric" is a most power
ful agent in dissolving urio acid, and
is endowed with other properties, for
it preserves the kidneys in a healthy
condition by thoroughly cleansing
them. Being so many times more ac
tive than ltthia, "Anuric” clears the
blood and filters out those deposits of
lime-salts which cause so much pain,
and prevents dropsical conditions tueh
as swollen hands or feet and the bag
like appearance under the eyes. “ An
uric” is a regular insurance and life-
saver fo r all big meat eaters and those
who deposit lime-salts in their Joints.
Ask the druggist for “ Anuric” put up
by Dr. Pierce, in 60-cent packages, or
send $1.00 to Dr. Pierce for full treat
ment by mail.
Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets for the
liver and bowels have been favorably
known for nearly 50 years.
