URIC ACID IN THE SYSTEM
DY WHS II. SMITII, M. D.
Uric add Is now generally recog
nized as the cnusc of more diseases
than was heretofore believed. When
the kidneys arc out of order uric ncid
nccumulatefl within the body In super
nbuntsawoe. Tho disordered kidneys
do not filler tho poisons out of tho
blood, as tiey ought to do, and t-o tho
poisons remain In the blood and float
around until they find a place to
lodge, in form of urate salts. Tho
thing to remember Is that you may
have rheumatism In any part of tho
body you mny have pnins nnywhere
your bade may ncho and your head
may be Uswur -but tho trouble is not
where ihe pain appears.
The trouble is in the kidneys, and
what is the firet thing to do? You must
get thai -cmces uric acid out of your sys
tem, -whioh can bo done by taking Anuric
Tablets, the .splendid remedy which Dr.
Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., has put on salo
in the drag stores at a low price. Anuric
Tabids jjnvulo double strength), when
taken into the system as medicine, hava
the peculiar power of disaolving the urio
acid deposited there. Drop a bit of sugar
or Kilt irato hot water, and it will disap
pear. Jn precisely the same way do these
Anuric Tablets dtesolve uric acid. Of
course, after ridding the system of uric
acid, it any return again unless you cat
the right foods and live the right kind of
life, but Dr. Pierce will advise you fully
on popcr food and correct living if you
write anl iwk him. He makes no charge
for such advice. Tako Anuric Tablets to
day, by all means, and get that uric acid
out of your system. Don't, don't, don't,
put the nvUter off.

By M. L'ABBE A. POULIN.
(In tho New York Herald.)
Mezleres, Ardennes, France. It Is n
fact known to everyone that the Ger
mans, after having desperately begged
for the armistice, (.helled the town of
Mezleres, even up to tho exact mo
ment of tho beginning of the armistice,
cowardly and without any military
reason whatever. They aimed espe
cially at the monuments, which were
vrell known to them, as they hud oc
cupied tho city for four years.
Among tho latter the church Is es
pecially to bo mentioned. It is a fine
Gothic flnuiboynnt structure with five
uaves, the largest and perhaps tho
most beautiful of the country. This
church tins had, among other princely
visitors, the honor of celebrating the
mnrrlnge ceremony of Charles IX nnd
Elisabeth of Austria (1G70). Wo mako
bold to assert that It was "the last
of tho churches shelled." A fact less
known, although not less Interesting,
is Hint It wns also "the tlrst of tho
churches to be shelled."
Begun In 1490, It was 22 years old
when In 1C21 tho Imperials besieged
Mezleres, defended by Bayard, the
knight without fear or reproach. His
torians relnte that shells were em
ployed for the first time during this
siege. The enemy shelled tho town
for exactly n month, from August HI
until September 27, and one part wus
entirely destroyed. The monuments
ns well ns the church were struck by
the projectiles, as Is proved by the
archives of the epoch, kept in the de
pository of the department of Me
zleres. Several large holes had to be
mended In tho roof of tho church
steeple ns "the glass frame of tho
round of the steeple which had been
broken during the siege."
Many Times Bombarded.
One can notice that the bombard
ments of this epoch, even compared to
those that the history of after times
was to note, wcro not as certain
people might belleve-"gnines of chil
dren." Tho church of Mezleres wns,
however, to undergo more terrible
ones on three different occasions.
Completed with dllllculty In 1020,
that Is to say, a hundred and twenty
seven years after the laying of the
foundation stone, It was soon to have
lived tho golden age of Its life. To
say nothing' of tho fire which broke
out In Its steeple (1082), neither of tho
acts of vandalism of the revolutionists,
let us spenk only of tho bombardments
which It suffered. t
Tho Prussians shelled It In 1815. An
Inscription on the wall reminds the
render that it was nearly ruined. It
lost Its beautiful stained-glnss win
dows of tho sixteenth century nnd the
exterior pinnncles were seriously dam

aimed at and was once more the vic

During nearly forty-seven years
these ruins had been repaired. Tho
church of Mezleres had passed the
greater part of this great war without
damage, but In 1017 and 1018 the Ger

BRITISH TARS TO

London. When W. W. Jacobs wrote
".Many Cargoes" he had no notion his
Idea was 10 bu plagiarized, and pla
giarized by a great naval war at that.
But wars like women have strange
ways. And not tho least strange of
them Is the working of tho deportment
of the British marshal of the ad
miralty and prize court.
In time of history It was the duty
of this hlghfalutlng dignitary to ar
range for and attend the execution of
prisoners sentenced to death for mur
der on the high seas. And It is on
record that the marshal of tho olden
time attended the execution of Ad
miral Byng a British commander,
who wns shot on his own quarterdeck,
as a penalty for loslug a battle. Times
have changed. The modem marshal Is
only n milk and water edition of his
sterner prototype. Ho Is the watch
man, stevedore, caretaker and guar
dian angel In chief of all German
shipping that lias fallen Into allied
hands during tho war, and Incidentally,
of the British naval prize fund, of
which thousands of British Jack tnrs
and their olllcers are now nwaltlng
their share.

HUNS SAFER AT HOME
Coblenz When a Chicago Tribune
correspondent entered ono of tho head

an Interesting lecture to a German
civilian.
"Just tnko my tip," he said, "and
stay right here In Germany where you

whole lot safer right here."
"What's tho matter with the bird?"
asked the correspondent, and the cap

"He's another of those damned

Just in time to prevent tho enemy
from destroying Mezlercs totally, the
damage, though considerable, Is not
beyond repair. But It Is certain, too,
that this boinbnrdmeut Is another
proof of the Insincerity and the sav

worth noticing that our church, the
first church to be shelled In history,
was also the last.

New York Sun reporter, amounted to
-570,000,000, but this Included goods
seized under tho blockade, which must
bo held ponding tho conclusion of
pence. It was not possible to say what
the amouut of the prize fund would be.
There, was plenty of work for the prize
court.
250 Ships Seized During War.
,"Tho president (Lord l'hllllmore)
has sat every day since he was ap
pointed, nnd there would nppcnr to be
quite another year's work before tho
court," said tho ninrshal. "Including
vessels seized In port upon tho out
break of war, which numbered over
100, about 250 ships havo gono Into
my custody In tho United Kingdom.
"Hundreds of thousands of tons of
goods of all descriptions copper,
aluminum, metals, wool, cotton, lnrd,
oils and fats, coffee, cocoa, dried fruits,
wheat, barley, hides, leather, tobacco,
nitrates, zinc concentrates, diamonds,
pearls, human hair, false teeth and
many other things all are among the
prize captures."
Alluding to tho quantities of bonds
nnd securities captured, ho said the
interception of these securities proved
n powerful lever in British hnndR,
causing serious interruption of German
trade and dnmngo to German credit.
Amuslny Incident.
"An amusing Incident," said tho
marshal, "happened in tho earliest
days of tho war, when upon n largo
enemy vessel, brought In by tho navy,
onio alligators wero found. The ofil-
cr of customs at tho outport In nd-
islng mo of the seizure appeared to

"Eighteen months later the owner

Ind that they had been sold. I don't

that ho expressed himself very forcibly
to the Innocent purchaser."

"Now they know that hard times
are ahead of Germany nnd want to go

even send American money over, to

"There aro others who merely tiwik
