TAKE SALTS TO
FLUSH KIDNEYS
Eat less meat if you feel Back
achy or have Bladder
trouble.

Meat forms uric acid which eXcites
and overworks the kidneys in their
efforts to filter 1T from the system.
Regular eaters of meat must flush
the kidneys occasionally. You must
relieve them like you relieve your
bowels; removing all the acids, waste
and poison, else you feel dull misery
in the kidney region, sharp pains in
the back or sick headache, dizziness,
your stomach sours, tongue is coated
and when the weather is bad you
have rheumatic twinges. The urine
is cloudy. full of sediment; the chan
nels often get irritated, obliging you
to get up two or three times during
the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids
and flush off the body's urinous waste
get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take a table
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine and bladder
disorders disappear. 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 sluggish kidneys
and stop bladder irritation. Jad
Salts is inexpensive; harmless and
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men
and women take now and then, thus
avoiding serious kidney and bladder
diseases.
