In December, some local acliinp In terests solicited our aid in securinc an extension of the falem eity sewer to tlx" iacKiti(; house district. Promise was made that if the city would liuiV the mower, a $2(1,000 abattoir would lift erected. Anxious to aid local indus try, a committee, from this department, assisted by our manager, tried to secure favorable action from the city council; and success in our effort was iiraetionl ly assured. But the local jiachini; in terests later postponed their intentions to build the abattoir. Althoimh our work was for nauht, we wish hero to record our activity to demonstrate that the Commercial club is trying to aid local industries. i This department in February investi- i cntod the feasibility of state prinlinir, I of elementary text books for the schools of Oregon. Our findings were reported to the club membership meeting on February 10 with the result that a mo tion was carried asking the manager : to draw up a resolution favoring such state publication and instructing him to send a copy thereof to every commercial body in Oregon.

Vote: It is now asserted with con fidenen that these painful effects due to uric acii in the system nre entirely eiadi.ated, A new remedy, called "Anuric,'' has been discovered by llr. Pierce, and is the cause (if n driiimro' outward of the uric ncbl with which it comes in contact within the body. It will ward off backache, headache and the darting pains and uches ( articular or muscular rheumatism of those dis eases which are caused by too much uriii acid, sin h as gout, asthma, sciatica, renal calculus. "Anuric," prolongs lite because old people usually suffer from hardening and thickening of the walls of tho arteries, due to the excess of uric. ik id in the blood and tissues. Ir. Pierce, who is director and chief physician ut tho Invalids' Hotel and Mitgical Institute, Ibiffulo, X. V., hi s been testing this wonderful medicino for the relief of over-worked and vcaK eneil kidneys. The relief obtained hi sufferers has been so satisfactory that he determined to place "Atiuric'' wit it the principal druggists in town where people could get this medicine, for ,10e, "Anuric'' is nut harmful or poisonoui, but aids nature in throwing off thus.; poisons within the body which cause so much suffering, pain and misery.
