IF KIDNEYS AND
BLADDER BOTHER
Take Salts to flush Kidneys and
neutralize irritating
acids.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder,
where 1t often remains TO irritate and
inflame, causing a burning, scalding
sensation, or setting up an irritation
at tie neck of the bladder, obliging
YOU to seek relief two or three times
during the night. The sufferer is in
constant dread, the water passes some
times with a scaldinS sensation and is
very profuse; again, there is diff
Guilty in avoiding il.
Bladder weakness, most folks call il,
because they can't control urination.
While il is extremely annoying and
sometimes very painful, this is really
one of the most simple ailments TO
overcome. Get about four ounces OF
Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of wa
ter before breakfast, continue this for
two or three days. This will neutral
ize the acids in the urine so it nc
longer is a source of irritation to tie
bladder and urinary organs which
then act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid OF grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caus-
ed by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts
is splendid for kidneys and causes nc
bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, efferves-
cent lithia water drink, which quick
ly relieves bladder trouble.
