A FIGHT FOR LIFE
It has been fight 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 their
trouble with that wonderful new discovery
of Dr. Pierce's called "An-u-rlc." You
should promptly heed these warnings,
some of which are dizzy spells, backache,
Irregularity of the urine or the painful
twinges of rheumatism, sciatica or lum
bago. To delay may make possible the
dangerous forms of kidney disease, such
as Eright's disease, diabetes or stone In
the bladder.
To overcome these distressing condi
tions take plenty of exercise In the open
air, avoid a heavy meat diet, drink freely
of water and at each meal take Dr.
Pierce's Anuric Tablets (double strength).
You will, in a short time, find that you
are one of the firm lndorsers of Anuric,
as are thousands of neighbors.
Step Into the drug store and ask for
Anuric, or send Dr. V. M. Pierce, Buffalo,
N. Y., 10c for trial pkg. Anuric, many
times more potent than llthia, eliminates
uric acid as hot water melts sugar. Adv.

proceeded without, any incident until
the evening of June 17, when the sec

whs firing on us. She was about eight
miles off. There was a heavy squall
stnrtlng eastward wind favorable to
this time, and I thought it possible
to get away nnd kept holding on. But
she kept firing on me at intervals of
about five to ten minutes and was
coming up on me fast.
"I concluded that there wasn't any
use and I lowered down spanker, clew'

flag, and hove to. Shortly after the
prize officer came aboard nnd a doctor
and about ten men. These officers
were in uniform. They told me to
leave the ship nnd to go on board
the raider and they would give me
time In the morning to pack my
clothes.
"They took nil our men nboard the
raider except the cook. Next morn

men and packed up. We left the ship
with our belongings on June 18. We
were put on board the raider again.
Shortly after I saw from the raider
that they cut holes In the masts and
placed dynamite bombs In each mast

Is Professor Vincent, an officer of one
of the French medical schools.
The wnr has shown that the most
deadly of fevers is at the mercy of
science. Tyhoid fever was always a
great enemy of armies in the field. It
has been established that in wars pre
vious to the present one more men
died of typhoid than by bullets nnd
shells.
Typhoid Epidemic Started.
At the start of the present struggle
a typhoid epidemic started In October,
1914, and increased through the win
ter of 1914-1915.
Professor Vincent set out to stop the
epidemic by using a vaccine which
he had discovered four or five years
previously.
Already, from 1911 to 1914, most of
the French soldiers under arms had
been vaccinated. But the mobilization
men arrived In different depots In hun
dreds of thousands.
Doctor Landouzy, head of the medi
cal service In the Belfort district, had
100,000 men vaccinated. Three
months later typhoid fever had en
tirely disappeared from his district,
and it was proved that only In dis
tricts where men had not been vac
cinated was typhoid to be feared.
Number of Deaths Smaller.
At present vaccination is obliga
tory everywhere, and. thanks to this,
the number of typhoid cases dropped

and on August 2 the ship was driven
hard and fast ashore. After working
all afternoon they gnve her up as lost
nnd took ashore everything they, could
move, including the boats, ;;enr nnd
wireless. The wireless plant, a very
powerful one, was set up between two
coconut 4rees.
On August 23, Captain Smith re
lated, the German officers fitted up
and armed a small boat and started
for the Cook Islands or the Fiji Is
lnnfls, where they hoped to capture nn

had a largo cargo of flour, salmon and
beef and a supply of water. Kling and
his crew dismantled the wireless plant
and left the island In the Lutece that
night, leaving 48 souls, Including the
Americans.
A small boat had been left behind,

The number of deaths through ty
phoid had also dropped to such an
extent that now they have to be rock

far, for the present year, only 0.04
deaths In 100,000 have been record

Professor Vincent, "that preventive
vacclnution, for which the ontltyphus
laboratory of the Val de Grace fur

doses of vaccine, has saved a consider
able number of men for the country.
"If the morbidity and mortality ex

January, 1915, had been maintained
nnd on the hypothesis that between
4,000,000 nnd 5,000,000 men had been
sent to the front during that period,
the number of cases would have been
more than a million and the number
of deaths 145,000."

Eat less meat if you feel Back-
achy or have Bladder
trouble.
No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by
flushing the kidneys occasionally, says
a well-known authority. Meat forms
uric ucld which excites the kidneys,
they become overworked from the
strain, get Bluggish and fail to filter
the wnnte and poisons from the blood,
thea we got sick. Nearly all rheuma
tism, headaches, liver trouble, nervous
ness, dizziness, sleeplessness and ur
inary disorders como from sluggish
kidneys.
The moment you feol a dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts or If
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of
sediment, Irregular of passage or at
tended by a sensation of scalding,
stop eating meat and get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar
macy; take a tablcspoonful in a glass
of water before breakfast and In a
few days your kidneys will act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, com
bined with llthia, and has been used
for generations to flush and stimulate
the kidneys, also to neutralize the
acids in urine so It no longer causes
Irritation, thus ending bladder weak
ness. Jad Salts is Inexpensive and can
not injure; makes a delightful effer
vescent llthla-water drink which
everyone should take now and then
to keep the kidneys clean and active
and the blood pure, thereby avoiding
serious kidney complications. Adv.

Sage Tea and Sulphur Darkens
So Naturally that No

Hair that loses its color and lustre,
or when It fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
no a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her lockB dark and beautiful,
and thousands of women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade of hair which Is so at
tractive, use only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition of other
Ingredients by asking at any drug
store for a 60-cent bottle of "Wyeth'i
Sage and Sulphur Compound," which
darkens the hair so naturally, bo even
ly, that nobody can possibly tell It
has been applied. You Just dampen
a Bponge or Boft brush with It and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time. By morn
ing the gray hair disappears; but
what delights the ladles with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound, Is that,
besides beautifully darkening the kalr
after a few applications, It also bring
back the gloss and lustre and gives It
an appearance of abundance.
