Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound to all women suffering from female troubles, particularly to Danish women. ’ ’—Mrs. Meta Damg a ard-Mat-zan, 2137 Kimball Ave., Chicago, 111. It is positively true that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has helped thousands of women who have been troubled with displacements, inflammation, ulceration, tumors, irregularities, periodic pains, backache, that bearing down feeling, indigestion, and nervous prostration. A Great Discovery ' Swollen hands, nnklcs, feet are due to •i dropsical condition, often eaused by disordered kidneys. Naturally when the kidneys are deranged the blood is filled with poisonous waste matter, which settles in the feet, ankles and wrists; or under the eyes in bag-like formations. As a remedy for I hose easily recognized symptoms of inflammation caused by uric arid —as scalding urine, backache and frequent urination, as well as sediment in the urine, or if uric acid in the blood has caused rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica, gout, it is simply wonderful how quickly Anuric acts; the pains and stiffness rapidly disappear. The very best possible way to take care of yourself is to take a glass of hot water before meals and Anuricthe discovery of Dr. Pierce of Buffalo, N. Y. Step into any drug store and ask for a 50c. package of Anuric, which is many times more potent, than lithia and eliminates uric acid almost as hot water melts sugar. A short trial will convince you.
