SALTS # BACKACHY
AND KIDNEYS HURT
Drink lots Of water and stop eating
meat for a while if your Bladder
troubles you.

When you wake up with backache and
dull misery in the kidney region it gem
orally means you have been eating too
much meat, says a well-known authority.
Meat forms uric acid which overworks
the kidneys in their effort to filter it
from the blood and they become sort of
paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels; re-
moving all the body's urinous waste,
else you have backache, sick headache,
dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue
is coated, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The urine
is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often
get sore, water scalds and you are obliged
to seek relief two or three times during
the night.
Either consult a good, reliable physi-
clan at once or get from your pharmacist
about four ounces of Jad Salts; take
q tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with hthia,
and has been used for generations to
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys,
also TO neutralize acids In the urine 50 it
no longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.

meat eaters. It is inexpensive. cannot

A FAMILY
MEDICINE
In Her Mothers Home, Says This
Georgia Lady, Regarding Black
Draught. Relief From Head
ache, Malaria, ChiIls, Etc.

Ringgold, Ca Mrs. Chas. CASTOR,
Of this place, writes: 81 am a user
of Thedford's Black-Draught; in fact,
it was one Of our family medicines.
Also in my mothers home, when I
was a child. When any Of Us child
rem complained Of headache, usually
caused by constipation, she gave us
a dose of Black-Draught, which would
rectify the trouble. Often in the
Spring, we would have malaria and
chilIs, or troubles of this kind, we
would take Black-Draught pretty reg
ular until the liver acted well, n
we would soon be up and around
again. We would not be without 1t,
for it certainly has saved us lots OF
doctor bills. Just a dose of Black
Draught when not so well saves a
lot of days in bed"
Thedford's BIack-Draught has been
in use for many years in the treat
ment OF stomach, liver and bowel
troubles, and the popularity which it
now enjoys is proof of it's merit.
If your liver is not doing its duty,
you will suffer from such disagree
able symptoms as headache, bilious
ness, constipation, indigestion, etc,
and unless something is done, serious
trouble may result.
Thedford's BIack-n-aught has been
found a valuable remedy for these
troubles. It is purely vegetable, and
acts in a prompt and natural way,
regulating the liver to its proper
functions and cleansing the bowels OF
Impurities. Try it. Insist on Thed-
ford's. the original and genuine. z %
