urine is cloudy. offensive, full of sedi-
ment, irregular Of passage or attended
BY a sensation of scalding. stop eating
meat and get about four ounces Of Jad
Salts from any pharmacy; take a table

made from the acid Of grapes and
lemon Juice. combined with lithia. and

traIize the acids in urine so it no longer
causes irritation, thus ending bladder

Most people die eventually OF an
over-acid condition. If the blood can
be rendered more alkaline, the longer
we live. With regular hours, 6 to 8
glasses Of water between meals, sensi-
bic coarse food and a chance to get the
poisons out of the system, a man viii
live to be a hundred. But, unfortunate
ly, our highly nervous way of living
brings increased storage of uric acid in
the blood. This acts as a poison, and
when it a~ccumulates in system we suffer
from headaches, backache, neuralgia, lum-
bago, aches or pains any where, irregu-
larity of the water or burning sensations
or the painful twinges of rheumatism and

taking a harmless medicine called
