WHEN KIDNEYS ACT BAD
TAKE GLASS OF SALTS
Eat Less Meat IF Kidneys Hurt or You
Have Backache or Bladder Misery
Meat Forms Uric Acid.

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by flush
ing the kidneys occasionally, says a
well-known authority. Meat forms
uric acid which clogs the kidney pores
so they sluggishly filter or strain only
part of the waste and poisons from
the blood, then you get sick. Nearly
all rheumatism, headaches, liver trou-
BILE, nervousness, constipation, dizzi-
ness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders
come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts, or If
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of
sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by sensation of scalding, get
about four ounces of Jad Salts from
any reliable pharmacy and take a
tablespoonful in a glass of water be-
fore breakfast for few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This IA
nous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
Ethia and has been used for genera
lions to flush clogged kidneys and
stimulate them to activity, also to neu-
tralize the acids in urine so it no
longer causes irritation, thus ending
bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes delightful efferves-
cent Whitewater drink which all reg
uIar meat eaters should take now and
then to keep the kidneys clean and
the blood pure, thereby avoiding Sc
rious kidney complications.-Adv.
