SALTS IF BACKACHY
AND KIDNEYS HURT
Stop eating meat for a while
if your Bladder is
troubling you.

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region 1t
generally means you have been eating
too much meat, says a well-known au-
thority. Meat forms uric acid which
overworks the kidneys in their effort
to filter it from the blood, and they
become sort of paralyzed and logey.
When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog you must relieve them, like you re-
lieve your bowels; removing all the
bodys urinous waste, else you have
backache, sick headache, dizzy spells;
your stomach sours. tongue is coated.
and when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy.
fun OF sediment, channels often get
sore, water scalds, and you are obliged
to seek relief two or three times during
the night.
Either consult a good reliable physi-
Cist about tour ounces of Jad Salts;
take a tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast for a few days and
your kidneys will then act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid OF
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been used for genera
tions to clean and stimulate sluggish
kidneys, also to neutralZe acids in the
urine so 1t no longer irritates, thus end
ing bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is a life-saver for regular
meat eaters. 1t is inexpensive, cannot
| injure and makes delightful, efter-
vescent lithia- water drink.-Advt
