While you ought ti r&ise chickens if located so you can, this does not mean that you ought to let them run all over the neighborhood, destroy your neighbors garden,* cause ill feel ing and do more injury than it would I not to raise the chickens.

BABCOCK) “The most simple methods are usually the most effective ones when treating any disorder of the human system.' The mere drinking a cup of hot water each morning, plenty of pure water all day, and a little Anuric before every meal has been found the most effective means of overcoming kidney trouble. Death would occur if the kidneys did not work day and night in separating poisons and uric acid from the blood. The danger signals are backache, depressions, pains, heaviness, drowsinc 1, irritability, headaches, chilliness, rheumatic twinges, swollen joints or gout. Since it is such a simple matter to step intoadrug store and obtain Anuric (double strength), anyone who earnestly desires to regain health and new life will waste no time in beginning this treatment.
