Daily Health Talks A M'ORD ABOUT THE KIDNEYS : BY DOCTOR WATSON. People are easily frightened when they think something Is the matter with tbelr lungs or heart, and well they may be; but few people under stand the dangers of diseased kid neys. These organs have a duty of vital importance to perform, and If they are diseased, there is no telling how or where tho symptoms may ap Bcar., The kidneys are filters, and Ahcr.c they are healthy they remove the poisons from the blood and puri fy it. When the kidneys are diseased the poisons are spread everywhere, and one of these poisons Is uric acid. The uric acid is carried all through the system and deposited in various places, lo the form of urate salts in tho feet, ankles, wrists and back often forming bags undor the eyes. Sometimes the resulting trouble Is called rheumatism, lumbago," sciatica and backache. Finally, come stone In the bladder, diabetes and Bright s disease. I Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., In re cent years, discovered that a certain combination of remedies would dis solve uric acid (urate salts) In the system. .He found thlB combination to be harmless, so that be made it up In tablets, ot double strength, . and called them Anurlc Tablets. They dissolve uric acid in the human sys tem as hot coffee dissolves sugar. It you have uric acide troubles, don't delay in taking Anuric Tablets, which can be secured In the drug stores. You ean write Dr. Pierce, too. and he will tell you what to eat and how to live so that more uric acid will not form in your system. Dr. Pierce will not charge for this advice. Adv.
