LADIES! SECRET TO

Just few applications will prove a
revelation if your haid is fading. gray
or dry. scraggly or thin. Mixing the
Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at
home, though. is troublesome. An
easier way is to get the ready to use
tonic. costing about so cents a large
bottle at drug stores, known as

While WHISKY, gray, faded hair is
not sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractive
ness. BY darkenng your hair with
Weyth's Sage and sulphur, no one
can tell, because it does it so natur-
ally. so evenly. You just dampen a
sponge or soft brush with 1t and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at time; by morning
all gray hairs have disappeared. and
after another application or two
youh hair becomes beautifully dark

QUIT MEAT IF YOUR
KIDNEYS ACT BADLY
TAKE TABLESPOONFUL OF SALTS
If BACK HURTS OR BLAD-
DER BOTHERS.

We are a nation of meat eaters and
our blood is filled with uric acid, says
q. well-known authority, who warns
us to be constantly on guard against
kidney 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 sys-
tenn.
When your kidneys ache and feel
like Jumps OF lead, and you have
stinging 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 severe headaches, nervous
and dizzy spells, sleeplessness, acid
stomach or rheumatism in bad wealth
er. get from your pharmacist about
four ounces of Jad Salts; take ta-
blespoonful in glass of water before
breakfast each morning and in few
days your kidneys will act fine. This
| famous salts is made from the acid
of grapes and lemon juice. combined
with lithia, and has been used fol
| generations to flush and stimulate
clogged kidneys, to neutralize thu
acids in urine so 1t is no longer
source of irritation, thus ending uri
nary and bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and canno
injure; makes delightful efferves
cent llthia- water drink, and nobod
can make a mistake by taking a littl
occasionally to keep the kidneys cleal
and active.
