FOLEY KIDNEY PILLS

URIC ACID IN MEAT
CLOGS THE KIDNEYS
Take glass of Salts if your Back hurts
or Bladder bothers you-Drink
more water.

If you must have your meat every day,
eat it, but flush your kidneys with salts
occasionally, says noted authority who
tells us that meat forms uric acid which
almost paralyzes the kidneys in their cf-
forts to expel it from the blood. They
become sluggish and weaken, then you
suffer with dull misery in the kidney
region, sharp pains in the back or sick
headache, dizziness, your stomach soura,
tongue is coated and when the weather
is bad you have rheumatic twinges. Tho
urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, tho
channels often get sore and irritated,
obliging you to seek relief two or three
time during the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids, to
cleanse the kidneys and flush off the
body's urinous waste get four ounces of
Jad Salts from any pharmacy here;
lake a tablespoonful in glass of
water before breakfast for few days
and your kidneys will then 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 flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys,
also to neutralize the acids in urine,
so it no longer irritates, thus ending
bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure, and makes delightful effervescent
Whitewater drink.
