Women's complaints often prove to be

A GLASS OF SALTS WILL

II Bladder Bothers You.

When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore. don't get scared and
proceed to load your stomach with, .
lot of drugs that excite the kidneys
and irritate the entire urinary tract.
Keep your kidneys clean like you keep
your bowels clean, by flushing them
with mild, harmless salts which re.
moves the body's urinous waste and
stimulates them to their normal activ.
ity. The function Of the kidneys is to
filter the blood. In "a hours they
strain from it 500 grains Of acid and
waste, SO we can readily understand
the vital Importance of keeping the
kidneys active.
Drink lots of water-you can't drink
too much; also get from any pharma-
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take tablespoonful in q glass of
water before breakfast each morning
for few days and your kidneys will
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 clean and
stimulate clogged kidneys; also to
neutralize the acids in urine SO it no
longer is q source of irritation, thus
ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure; makes a delightful efrervescent
Whitewater drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep
their kidneys clean and active. Try
this. also keep up the water drinking.
and no doubt you will wonder what
became of your kidney trouble and
backache.-Adv.
