SALTS F BACKAcHY
 AND KIDNEYS HURT
Drink lo6 of water and stop eating meet for awhile If your Bladder
 troubles you

When yen wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region, it gen srally means you have been eating too much meht. says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which overworlls the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of ParalyEed and ioggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels; re- moving all the body's urinous waste, slse you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy. full of sediment, channels often get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night.
 Either consult good, reliable physi- elan at once or get from your pharmacist about four ounces of lad Salts; 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 clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the urine 30 it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder weakness.
 lad Salts is life saver for regular meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot injure and makes a delightful, effer. vescent Whitewater drink.
