SEVERE RHEUMATIC
PAINS DISAPPEAR

Rheumatism depends on an acid whicl
flows in the blood, affecting the muscles
and joints, producing Inflammation, still
ness and pain, This acid gets into the
blood through some defect in the digest
i've processes, and remains there because
the liver, kidneys and skin are too tor
pid to carry ii of,
Hoods Sarsaparlla, the old-timt
blood tonic, is very successful in the
treatment of rheumatism. 1t acts di'
rectly, with purifying effect, on the

liver, kidneys and skin, which it slim
ulates, and at the same time it inn
proves the digestion.

Glass of Salts if
Your Kidneys Hurt.
Eat less meat If you feel Backachy or
have Bladder trouble.

Meat forms uric acid which excites
and overworks the kidneys in their ef-
forts to filter it from the system.
Regular eaters of meat must flush the
kidneys occasionally. You must re-
lieve them like you relieve your
bowels; removing all the acids, waste
and poison, else you feel dull misery
in the kidney region, sharp pains in
the back or sick headache, dizziness,
your stomach sours, tongue is coated
and when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment; the channels
often get irritated, otliging you to get
up two or three times during the
night.
To neutralize these irritating acids
and flush off the body's urinous waste
get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take table,
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast for few days and your
kidneys will then act fine and bladder
disorders disappear. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys
and stop bladder irritation. Jad
Salts is inexpensive; harmless and
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then, thus avoid
| ing serious kidney and bladder dis
| eases.
