SALTS IS FINE FOR
T. KIDNEYS, QUIT MEAT
Flush tho Kidneys at Once When
Back Hurts or Bladder
:, Bothors. -

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make. mistake by
flushing the kidneys occasionally,
says q well known authority. Meat
forms uric acid which clogs the kid
Iney pores 80 they sluggishly filter
or strain only part Of the waste and
poisons from the blood, then u you
get sick. Nearly all rheumatism,
headaches, liver trouble, nervous
ness, constipation, dizziness, sleep
lessness, bladder disorders come
from sluggih kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache
in the kidneys or your back hurts,
or if the urine is cloudy, offensive,
full of sediment, irregular of passage
or attended by sensation Of scald-
ing, get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any reliable pharmacy
and take tablespoonful in a 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 clog
|ged kidneys and stimulate them to
activity, also to neutralize the acids
in urine so it no longer causes irri-
tation, thus ending bladder disor-
ders. ....
Jad Salts is inexpensive and can
not injure; makes delightful effer-
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.-Ady.
