Harmless to flush Kidneys and neu-
traiize irritating acids-SpIendid
for system.

Kidney and Bladder weakness re-
suit from uric acid, says a noted au-
thority. The kidneys filter this acid
from the blood and pass it on to the
bladder. where it often remains to ir-
ritate and inflame, causing a burning,
scalding sensation, or setting up an ir-
ritatiOn at the neck Of the bladder,
obliging you to seek relief two or
three times during the night. The
sufferer is in constant dread, the wa
sensation and is very profuse; again,
there is difficulty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call it.
because they can't control urination.
While it is extremely annoying and
sometimes very painful, this is really
one OF the most simple ailments to
overcome. Get about four ounces Of
Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of wa
ter before breakfast, continue this for
ize the acids in the urine so 1t no
longer is a source of irritation to the
bladder and urinary organs which then
act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice combined with
lithia, and is used by thousands of
folks who are subject to urinary dis
orders caused by uric acid irritation
Jad Salts is splendid for kidneys and
causes no bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, efferve-
scent lithia-water drink, which quick
ly relieves bladder trouble.
