IF BACK HURTS
BEGIN ON salts
Flush Your Kidneys OCCASIONAL,
if You Eat Meat
Regularly.

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make q mistake by
flushing the kidneys occasionally
says a we'll known authority. Meat
forms uric acid, which clogs the kid
rey pores so they sluggishly filter OF
strain only part of the waste and
roisons from the blood, then you get
sick. Nearly all rheumatism, head
aches, liver trouble, nervousness, con-
stipation, dizziness, sleeplessness
bladder disorders come from sluggish
kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts, OF
ii the urine is cloudy, offensive, full
of sediment, irregular of passage or
attended by sensation of scalding,
get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any reliable pharmacy and take
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 lithit, and has been used for
generations to flush clogged kidneys
and stimulate them to activity, also
to neutralizc the acids in urine so it
no longer causes irritation, thus end
ing bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cam
not injurc; makes delightful cffer
vescent lithia-water drink which all
regular meat eaters should take now
and then to keep the kidneys clean
and the blood pure, thereby avoiding
serious kidney complications.

Hurrah! How's This
Cincinnati authority says corns
dry up and lift out
with fingers.

Hospital records show that ever,
tlme you cut corn YOU invite lock.
Jaw or blood poison, which is needless
says a Cincinnati authority, who tells
you that quarter ounce of a drug
called freezOne can be obtained at lit.
tie cost from the drug store. but is
sufficient to rid ones feet of every
hard or soft corn or callus.
You simply apply few drops OF
freezone on a tender, aching corn ana
soreness is instantly relieved. Short
ly the entire corn can be lifted out
root and all, without pain.
This drug is sticky, but dries at once
and is claimed to just shrivel up any
corn without inflaminC or even irri-
tating the surrounding tissue or skin.
If your wife wears high heels she
will be glad to know of this.
