QUIT MEAT WHEN
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Take a Glass of Salts If Your Back
Hurts or Your Bladder
Troubles You.

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make mistake by flush
ing the kidneys occasionally, says a
well-known authority. Meat forms uric
acid which excites the kidneys, they
become overworked from the strain,
get sluggish and fail to filter the waste
and poisons from the blood, then we
get sick. Nearly all rheumatism,
headaches, liver trouble, nervousness,
dizziness, sleeplessness and urinary
disorders come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts or If
the urine Is cloudy, offensive, full of
sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by sensation of scalding, stop
eating meat and get about four ounces
Of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take
tablespoonful ina glass Of water be-
fore breakfast and ina few days your
kidneys will act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid Of grapes
an dlemon Juice, combined with withia,
and has been used for generations to
flush and stimulate the kidneys, also
to neutralize the acids in urine so 1t no
longer causes irritation, thus ending
bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes delightful efferves-
cent Whitewater drink which every
one should take now and then to keep
the kidneys clean and active and the
blood pure, thereby avoiding serious
kidney complications.

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggists Says Ladies' Are Using
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur.

Hair that loses its color and lustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless, is caused by lack Of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands of women and men
who value that even color, that beau
tiful dark shade Of hair which Is SO
attractive, use only this old-time
recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition Of other
ingredients by asking at any drug
store for 50-cent bottle of "Wyeth' g
Sage and Sulphur Compound" which
darkens the hair 80 naturally 80
evenly, that nobody can possibly tell
it has been applied. You Just dampen
a sponge or soft brush with 1t and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time. BY morn
ing the gray hair disappears; but
what delights the ladies with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulhpur Compound, is that,
besides beautifully darkening the hair
after few applications, 1t also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives 1t
an appearance of abundance.
