F KIDNEYS AND
BLADDER BOTHER
Take glass of Salts to flush out your
Kidneys and neutralize uri-.
r. tating acids. -

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder, where
it often remains to irritate and infame,
causing burning, scalding sensation, or
setting up an irritation 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
water passes sometimes with scalding
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 some
times 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 table
spoonful in glass of water before
breakfast, continue this for two or three
days. This will neutra1ize the acids in
the urine SO it no longer is q source Of
irritation to the bladder and urinary or
cams which then act normally again. s
Jad Salts is Inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon Juice, combined with ithia, and
is used by thousands of folks who are
subject to urinary disorders caused by
uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is SPLEEN
did for kidneys and causes no bad
effects whatever.
Here you have pleasant, etfervescent
6lithia.water drink, which quickly relieves
bladder trouble.
