WHY Chilly Weather
BRINGS RHEUMATISM
Says skin pores are closed and uric
acid remains i'm blood.

Rheumatism is no respecter OF age,
sex, color or rank. If not the most
dangerous of human Affections il is
one of the most painful. Those sub
ject to rheumatism should eat less
meat dress as warmly as possible,
avoid any undue exposure and,
above all. drink lots of pure water.
Rheumatism is caused by uric acid
which is generated in the bowels and
absorbed into the blood. II is the
function Of the kidneys to filter this
acid from the blood and cast it 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
double work, they become weak and
sluggish and fail to eliminate this
uric acid which keeps accumulating
and circulating through the system.
eventually settling in the joints and
muscles. causing stiffness. soreness
and pain called rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces Of Jad Salts; put a table
spoonful in a glass of water and
drink before breakfast each morning
for a week. This is said to eliminate
uric acid by stimulating the kidneys
to normal action, thus ridding 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 re-
suits by thousands of folks who are
subject to rheumatism. Here you have
a pleasant. effervescent lithia-water
drink WHICH overcomes uric acid ana
is beneficial to yoHr kidneys as well.
