QUIT MEAT WHEN
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Take Glass of Salts Before Breakfast
If Your Back Hurts or Bladder
Is Troubling You.

No man or woman who eats meat re-
gularly can make mistake by flushing
the kidneys occasionally, says well
known authority. Meat forms uric acid
which excites the kidneys, they become
overworked from the strain, get slug
gish and fail to filter the waste and
poisons from the blood, then we get
sick. Nearly all rheumatism, head
aches, liver trouble, nervousness, dizzi-
ness, sleeplessness and urinary disorders
come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts or if the
urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sedi-
ment, irregular of passage or attended
by a sensation of sealding, stop eating
meat and get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any pharmacy; take table,
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast and in few days your kid
neys viii act fine. This famous salts
is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon Juice, combined with hthia, and
has been used for generations to flush
and stimulate the kidneys, also to neu-
tralize the acids in urine so it no longer
causes irritation, thus ending bladder
weakness.
lad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
| iniure; makes delightful effervesceni
Whitewater drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active and the blood
pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney
complications.

derstand more than little about life and about the men
