Keep Uric Acid
Out of Joints
Tells Rheumatism Sufferers to
Eat Less Meat and Take
Salts.

Rheumatism is easier to avoid than to
cure states a well-known authority. We
are advised TO dress warmly; keep the
feet dry; avoid exposure; eat less meat
but drink plenty OF good water.
Rheumatism is a direct result of eating
too much meat and other rich foods that
produce uric acid which is absorbed into
the blood. 1t is the function of the kid
neys to filter this acid from the blood
and cast 1t out in the urine; the pores Of
the skin are also a means of freeing the
blood of this impurity. In damp and
chilly cold weather the skin pores are
closed thus forcing the kidneys TO do
loube work, they become weak and slug
gish and fail to eliminate the uric acid
which keeps accommodating and circulating
through the system eventually settling
in the Joints and muscles causing stiff
ness, soreness and pain called rheuma-
tism.
At the first twinge Of rheumatism get
from any pharmacy about four ounces
Of lad Salts; put a tablespoonful in a
glass Of water and drink before break
fast each morning for week This Is
said to eliminate uric acid by stimulat-
ing the kidneys to normal action, thus
Kidding the blood OF these impurities
Jad Salts Is inexpensive. harmless and
is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia and is
used with excellent results by thousands
OF folks who are subject 10 rheumati sm.
Here you have a pleasant effervescent
lithia-water drink which helps overcome
uric acid and is beneficial to your kid
neys as well.-Advertisement
