EAT LESS AND TAKE
SALTS FOR KIDNEYS
Take = glass Of Salts before breakfast
if your Back hurts or Bladder
bothers you.

The American men and women must
guard constantly against Kidney trouble,
because we eat too much and all our food
is rich. Our blood is filled with uric
acid which the kidneys strive to filter
out, they weaken from overwork, become
sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and
the result is kidney trouble, bladder
weakness and a general decline in health:
When your kidneys feel like Jumps OF
lead; your back hurts or the urine is
cloudy, full Of sediment or you are
obliged to seek relief two or three times
during the night; if you suffer with sick
headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acld
stomach. or you have rheumatism when
the weather is bad, get from your phar-
macist about four 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 generations
to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys;
to neutralize the acids in the urine 90 it
no longer is a source Of irritation, thu
ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
lure, makes 4 delightful effervescent
Whitewater beverage, and belongs in
every home, because nobody a make
a mistake by having a good kidney flush
ing an, time.

"Pape's Diapepsin'' Digests Food
when stomach cant-Cures
indigestion.

Do some foods you eat hit back
taste good, but work badly; ferment
into stubborn Jumps and u a sick,
sour, gassy stomach? Now, Mr.. or
Mrs. Dyspeptic, jot this down: Pape's
D%iapepsin digests everything, leaving
nothing to sour and upset you. There
never was anything SO safely quick,
so certainly effective. No difference
how badly your stomach is disordered
you will get happy relief in five min
utes, but what pleases you most is
that it strengthens and regulates your
stomach SO you can eat your favorite
foods without fear. ....e $751;. H..
Most remedies give you relief some:
times-they are slow, but not sure.
"Pape's Diapepsin" is quick, positive
and puts your stomach in a healthy
condition so the misery won't come
back.
You feel different as soon as "Pape's
Diapepsin" comes in contact with the
stomach-distress just yanishes-your
stomach gets sweet, no gases, no
besohing, no eructations Of undigest'
ed food, your head clears and you feel
fine.
Go now, make the best investment
you ever made, by getting a large
fifty-cent case of Pape's Diapepsin
from any drug store. You realize in
five minutes how needless it is to sui
fer from indigestion, dyspepsia or any
stomach disorder. (AdV.)
