“If Your Pain Is There,
What You Need Is a Good
Tonic For the Kidneys”
The kidneys are the scavengers and
they work day and night in separat
ing and the poisons from the blood.
Their signals of distress are easily
recognized and include such symp
toms as lumbago, backache, depres
sions, drowsiness, irritability, head
aches, dizziness, rheumatic twinges,
dropsy.
People are realizing more and more
every day that the kidneys, just as
do the bowels, need to be Hushed
occasionally. The kidneys are an
eliminative organ and are constantly
working, separating the poisons
from the blood. Under this con
tinual and perpetual action they are
apt to congest, and then trouble
starts. Uric acid backs up into the
system, causing rheumatism, neural
gia, dropsy and many other serious
disturbances. It means that you are
a victim of uric acid poisoning. Then
ask your druggist for Anuric (anti
uric acid) and you will very soon be
come one of hundreds who have been
helped by’ this powerful enemy to
uric acid.
Dr. Pierce manufactures Anuric
(kidney-backache) tablets and you
can obtain a trial pkg. by enclosing
10c and addressing Dr. Pierce, In
valids’ Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y.
