URIC ACID IN MEAT
BRINGS RHEUMATISM
Says a little Salts in water
may save you from
dread attack.

Rheumatism Is easier to avoid than to
cure, stateg 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 eat
ing too much meat and other rich foodc
that produce uric acid. which is alb
sorbed into the blood. It Is the func-
tion OF the kidneys to filter this acid
from the blood and cast Il out in the
Urine: the pores Of the skin are also a
means OF freeing the blood of thia i'm
purity. In damp and chilly cold w,.Ath-
-er the skin pores are closed, thus fore
ing the kidneys to do double work; they
eliminate the uric acid. which keeps ac-
cumulating and circulating through the
system. eventually settling in the joints
and muscles. causing stiffness, sore
ness and pain called rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism get
from any pharmacy about four OUNCES
OF Jad Salts: put a tablespoonful in a
glass of water unds drink before break
fast each morning for a week This Is
said to eliminate uric acid by stimC-
lating the kidneys to normal action
thus Kidding the blood OF these impuri-
ties.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and
Is made from the acid of grapes ard
lemon Juice. combined with lithla and is
used with excellent results by thou
sands of folks who are subject to rher-
matism. Here you have a pleasant. ef-
fervesccnt lthia-water drink which
helps overcome uric acid and IL bene-
fctal to your kidneys as well.-Advt.
