IF BACKACHY Oh
KIDNEYS BOTHER
EAT LESS MEAT ALSO TAKE p.
GLASS OF SALTS BEFORE EAT
ING BREAKFAST.

Uric acid in meat eXcites the kid
neys, they become oVerworked; get
sluggish, ache, and feel like Jumps of
lead. The urine becomes cloudy; the
bladder is irritated. and you may be
obliged to seek relief two or three
times during tie night. When the
kidneys clog you must help them flush
oc the body's urinous waste or you'll
be q real sick person~shortly. Al first
you feel dull misery in the kidney
region, you sucer from backache, sick
headache, dizziness, stomach gets
sour, tongue coated and you feel rheu-
matte twinges when the weather is
bad.
Eat less meat drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four
ounces OF Jad Salts; take tablespoon
full in glass Of water before break
fast for a few days and your kidneys
will then act Inc. This famous salts
is made from the acid Of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
clean clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to normal activity, also to neu-
tralile the acids in urine, so it no Ion
ger is a source of irritation, .Jhus end
ing bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in
lure; makes a delightful ecevescent
Whitewater drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
Kidneys clean and active. Druggists
here say they sell lots Of Jad Salts
to folks who believe in overcoming
kidney trouble while it is only trou-
BILE.
