HEALTHY SKIN DEPENDS ON KIDNEYS. The skin and the intestines, which work together with the kidneys to throw out the poisons of the body, do a part of the work, but o clean bady and a healthy one depends on the kidneys. If the kidneys are clogged with toxic poisons you suffer from stiffness in the knees in the morning on arising, your joints seem “rusty,” you may have rheumatic pains, pain in the buck, stiffi neck, headaches, sometimes swollen fcet, or neuralgic pains<—all duc to the uric_acid or toxic poisons in the blood. This is the time to go to the nearest drug store and simply obtain a 50c. package of Anuric, the discovery of Dr. Picrce of Buffalo, N. Y. Then drink a cup of hot water before meals, with an Anuric Tablet, and notice the gratifying results. You will find that Anuric dissolves uric acid as water does sugar. Minneapolis, Minn.—“Some time ago ¥ caught a cold which settled in my bladder. I could find nothing to relieve me until I read in the papers of Dr. Pierce’s Anuric Tablets and decided to try them as a last resort. Have used but one box of the Anuric as yet, but have been greatly benefited by it. My back- ache, from which I suffered untold agonies all summer, has now almost dis- appeared. I can recommend Anuric to lfl sufferers from kidney and bladder dis- orders.”—Mgr. N. W. Borscu, 1032 4th Street N. Minneapolis, Minn.—*Since baby came I have been greatly troubled with my kidneys. My back ached incessantly. 1 had rheumatic pains through the right shoulder. The kidneys were in a weak- ened condition and did not act as they should. 1 was easily tired and it seemed a burden to drag around. For my trouble I used Dr. Pierce’s Anuric Tab- lets and have been Ereazly relieved. My kidneys are in far better condition than ‘before.”—Mprs. LesLie Tromas, 810 E, 15th Strect.

Method by Which a Motorist Can Get the Best Tire Service. “Perhaps the greatest and most im- portant thing a motorist should know about a car is its weight with the aver- age load carried ¥s an expert. “By knowing the weight of his car when loaded ready to run the motorist is in a position to regulate his tires so that they not only act as the best shock absorber obtainable, but are fit to off- set any injuries which may come from over or under intlation. “With the weight of the car known when preparing for a trip which In- cludes passengers it is very easy for the motorist to regulate his alr pres- sure in the tires so that they will run with the least injury to themsel This foresight will also prevent a break in the side walls caused by an overload. “With the weight of your car, plus the weight of gusoline, water and extra tires, with the weight of the passengers added. you have the total running weight of your car. “For a quick way of determining what air pressure you will carry in your tires if you have no regular table of inflation the following table is sug- gested: “For three-inch tires divide the weight of the load by thirty-two. “For three and one-half-inch tires gi- vide the weight by forty. “For four-inch tires divide the weight of the load by forty-eight. “For four and one-half-inch tires di- vide the welght of the load by fifty-six. “For five-inch tires’ tires divide the welght of the load by sixty-four. “For five and one-balf-inch tires di- vide the weight of the load by seventy- two. “To further iliustrate the working out of the above table suppose your car weigbed 2.880 pounds and you are using four-inch tires. From the above we find that for four-inch tires the weight of the load should be divided by forty-eight. This will give you sixty pounds air pressure, ,which should be carried in your tires. The tire mileage will be greatly increased if the motorist will regulate his air pressure by the load he carries.””—New York Sun.

THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER g THEATERS AT THE Undoubtedly one of the most im- portant dramatic offerings ever pre- sented to the photoplay public is the Jesse L. Lasky Feature Play com- pany’s elaborate and faithful adap- tation of Charles Dickens’ immortal work, “Oliver Twist,” with Marie Doro in the stellar role, at the Elko theater tonight. Elko Sunday. The feature of the Elko theater Sunday is the motion picture ver- sion of Fedor Dostoessky's celebrated book, ‘“Crime and Punishment.” It is a Pathe Gold Rooster play. The star is Derwent Hall Caine, son of Hall Caine, the English author. REX THEATER TONIGHT The story of a man saved from himself is the story of ‘“Melting Mil- lions.” George Walsh, who plays - |the star role, outdoes the high stand- ard of good work he has been doing for William Fox pictures; and Anna Luther, the winsome and charming heroine, is more winsome and charm- ing than ever. Just because Jack Balentine had money, he thought that he had to spend it. The mere fact that his father (Sidney Deane) had left him about a million dollars was incentive enough to his spendthrift powers. He did his utmost to show himself unworthy of his legacy. X . Bluebird %?ll g‘}}fllfllfi‘t’ a ‘“‘mystery play” at the Rex Sunday, with Ho- bart Henley playing a dual role. 1t will be entitled “The Sign of the Poppy,” and will tell an interesting story of adventure, filled with execit- ing episodes and screened in Blue- bird’s usual superior detail and ex- cellence. Mr. Henley will imperson- ate twin brothers, one of whom was stolen when an infant and was raised to all intents and purposes as a Chinaman. The kidnapping was etaliating vengeance for a wrong committed against Hop Li, the ruler of Chinatown, by Jerry Marston, father of the twins. The boy who grew up as Chang was taught by his captor to hate everybody who bore the name of Marston, and the opera- tions of Chang’s hatred ccnstitute the plot of “The Sign of the Poppy.” AT GRAND The vicious selfishness of the very fashionable is revealed in all its heartlessness in the new Morosco- Paramount photoplay “The House of Lies,” coming to the Grand theater Sunday. As the name impliés, it is the abode of artificiality, of pro- tense, of vain strivings but in all these things it only portrays what is so often a true condition of the so- ciety devotee. Amid these surround- ings developes an amazing character —a beautiful woman whose experi- ences are so startling, so interest compelling, that her strange course of conduct is intensely baffling un- til the dramatic denouement. ety BEAUTIFUL EYE CONTEST Ladies!

It means inflammation of a mucous membrane some- where in the head, throat, bronchial tubes, stomach, bil- iary ducts or bowels. It always means stagnant blood — the blood that is full of impur- ities. Left alone, it extends until it is followed by indigestion, colds, congestion or fever. It weakens the system generally and spreads its operations until systemic catarrh or an acute illness is the result. Peruna Is the nation’s reliable remedy for this condition. It restores appetite, aids digestion, checks and removes inflammation, and thus enables the membranes, through which we breathe and through which our food is ab- sorbed, to do their work properly.
