 Bladder weakness, most folks call it, because they cant control trina tion. While it is extremely annoying and sometimes very painful, this IS really one of the most simple ail- ments to overcome. Get about four ounces of lad Salts from your phar- macist and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast, con- tinue this for two or three days. This will neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer is source of irrita- tion to the bladder and urinary organs which then act normally again.
 lad Salts is inexpensive, harmless, and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and is used by thousands of folks who are subject to urinary disorders caus- ed by uric acid irritation. lad Salts is splendid for kidneys and causes no bad effects whatever.
 Here you have pleasant, efferves- cent Whitewater drink, which quickly relieves bladder trouble.
