Dear Mr. Editor -I wish to tell yon of a recent experience I had when suf- fering from backache, weak back, rheu- matism, dropsy, and congestion of the kidneys. I tried a new medicine called " A nuric," which has recently been dis- covered by Dr. Pierce, of whose medi- cines and Surgical Institution in Buffalo, N. Y., you have no doubt heard for. nears. This medicine acted upon me in a wonderful manner. I never have taken any medicine so helpful in such quick time. I do wish anyone in need of such a remedy would give it a trial. (Signed) G. H. HERR. NOTE Folks in town and adjoining counties are delighted with the results they have obtained by using "A N URIC," the newest discovery of Dr. Pierce, who is, head- of the INVALIDS' HOTEL and SURGICAL INSTITUTE, in Buffalo, N. Y. } Those who stared the day with a back- ache, stiff -legs, arms and muscles, and an aching head (worn out before the day began because they were in and out of bed half a dozen times at night) are appreciating the perfect rest, comfort and'new strength they obtained from Dr. Pierce's Anuric Tablets. To prove that this is a certain uric acid solvent and conquers headache, kidney and bladder diseases and 'rheumatism, if you've never used the "Anuric," cut this out and send ten cents to Doctor Pierce for a large sample package. This will prove to you that «Anuric" is thirty-seven times more active than Lithia in eliminating uric acid—and the most perfect kidney and bladder cor- rector. If you are a sufferer, go to your best druggist and ask for a 50 -cent box of "Anuric." You run no risk for Dr. Pierce's good name stands behind this wonderful new discovery as it has for the past half century •for has "Golden Medical Discovery" which makes the blood pure, his "Favorite Prescription" for weak women and "Pleasant Pellets" for liver ills.

That there was no lack of medical humor in the classic days of Rome is' made sure by the ancient epigrams of Martial of -nearly 2,000 years ago. The London -Lancet shows that the poet bore a grudge against the specialists of his day, for it seems they had this variety of practitioners then and_pokes fun at the oculists and at the surgeons who Indulged' in clinical teaching. Of the latter he has a' patient complain in ';ood Latin, and this complaint has been made over into current English:' 1L: 111, but. soon Symmachus sought me with a class of a hundred young men, Whose hundred cold paws have brought me The fever I lacked till then. The journal of the American Medi- cal association calling attention to the medical ways of the ancient city notes that diseases due to luxurious habits had multiplied greatly In Rome. What was -.called gout --that is, pains and aches in joints and muscles and the vague conditions that we now call rheumatism -had also greatly increas- ed. Pliny, who was an older con- temporary of Martial, says, "Gout used to be an extremely rare disease, not in the times of our fathers and grand- fathers only, but even within my own memory." Although the gouty were usually rich and of luxurious habits, some of them evidently were not good pay. An evidence of this is thus given: Dtodorns, while he sues In court, On gouty feet can stand, But when the lawyer's bill Is brought The gout sets fast his hand. , Masked Women. iVpper class Swahili women wear', carious masks, which are made _of leather ,and beads on` a wooden frame.' The mask is derived from the tradi- Bona' usage of V oslem women;r-Wha must keep their faces covered in the presence of men. For several cen- turies Arab traders have -frequented this east African coast, and to their' influence are due most of the civilized customsfound today among the na- tives of the district. The .clothing worn by these prosperous dames is of silk, their shoes are partly of silver, and they wear much silver jewelry. The Moslems in Zanzibar, by the way, are less fanatically strict about religious usages than their brethren in Morocco and Turkey. -Wad. World Magazine. "Bob". and "Cob" in Money. Most people would know, what was meant by the term "bob" when speak- ing of money. But would they be able to say offhand what a "cob" is or was In a similar connection?
