heartily, full of cold or has sore throat
or any other children's ailment, give a
teaspoonful of california Syrup of

perfectly harmless, and in few hours
all this constipation poison, sour bile
and fermenting waste will gently
move out of the bowels, and you have
a well, playful child again. A thor
Ough inside cleansing" is ofttimes all
that is necessary. It should be the
first treatment given in any sickness.

all ages and for grown-ups plainly

Kidney, Bladder and Uric Acid trou-
bles bring misery to many. When
the kidneys are weak or diseased,
these natural filters do not cleanse
the blood sufficiently, and the poisons
are carried to all parts of the body.
There follow depression, aches and
pains, heaviness, drowsiness irrita-
bility, headaches, chilliness and rheu-
matism. in some people there are sharp
pains in the back and loins, distressing
bladder disorders and sometimes obsti-
nate droRsy. The uric acid sometimes
forms into gravel or kidney stones.
When the uric acid affects the muscles
and joints it causes lumbago, rheuma-
tism, govt or sciatica. This is the time

kidney trouble, bladder weakness and
a general decline in health.

is cloudy, full of sediment or you are
obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night; if you suffer

matism when the weather is bad, get
from your pharmacist about four
ounces of Jad Salts; take a table
spoonful in glass Of water before
breakfast for a few days and your kid
neys will then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid Of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia

flush and stimulate clogged kidneys;
to neutralize the acids in the urine SO
1t no longer is source Of irritation,
