MEAT INJURIOUS

If BACK HURTS OR BLAD-

We are a nation of meat eaters and
our blood is filled with uric acid, says
a well-known authority, who wants us
to be constantly on guard against kid
ney trouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood of this irritating acid, but
become weak from the overwork; they
get sluggish; the eliminative tissues
clog and thus the waste is retained in
the blood to poison the entire system.
When your kidneys ache and feel
like Jumps of lead, and you have sting
ing pains in the back or the urine is
cloudy, full of sediment or the bladder
is irritable, obliging you to seek relief
during the night; when you have Sc
we're headaches, nervous and dizzy
spells. sleeplessness, acid stomach or
rheumatism in bad weather, get from
your pharmacist about four ounces of
Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast each
morning and in few days your kid
neys will act fine. This famous salts
is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia, and
has been used for generations to flush
and stimulate clogged kidneys, to neu'
tralize the acids in urine so it is no
longer a source of irritation, thus end.
