A WORD AIJOIT TUB KIDXKYS
BY DOCTOR WATSON.
Poopls aro easily frightened when
they think something Is tho mattor
with tholr lungs or hourt, and well
they, may bo; but fow pooplo undor
stand tho dangers of diseased kid
neys. These organs have a duty of
vltul importance to perform, and it
they aro diseased, there Is no telling
how or where thay symptoms may
uppenr. Tho kldnoys aro filters, and
and whon llioy ure healthy they re
nioro tho polsonn from the blood and
purify It. Whon the kldnoys are dis
eased, tho poisons are spread ovory
whero, and one of thono poisons Is
uric. acid. Tho .uric acid Is carried
nil through the system nnd deposited
In various plucos, In the form of ur
ate, suits In tho feet, miklos, wrists
and back often forming bags under
tho cyos. Somotlmos tbo resulting
trouble is called rheumatism, lum
bago, sciatica and backache. Finally,
come, stono In the bladder, diabetes
and Drlgbt's disease.
Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y in re
cent years, dUcovored that a certain
combination of remedies would dis
solve urlo acid (urate salts) In the
system. He found this combination
to be harmless, so that ho made It us
tn tablets, of doublo strength, and
cullod them. Anurlc Tablets. They
dissolve urlo acid in tho human sys
tom as hot coffeo dissolves sugar. If
you have urlo acid troubles, don't de
lay In Inking Anurlc Tablets, which
can bo secured in the drug stores.
you can write Dr. Fierce, too, and he
will toll you what to oat and how to
live so that more uric acid will not
form in your system. Dr. Piorce will
not charge for this advlco. Adv.
