SALTS FINE FOR
ACHING KIDNEYS
We eat too much meat, which clogs
Kidneys, then Back hurts and
Bladder bothers you.

Most folks forget that the kidneys,
like the bowels, get sluggish and clogged
and need a flushing occasionally, else we
have backache and dull misery in the
kidney region, severe headaches, rheu-
matte twinges, torpid liver, acid stomach,
eleeplessness and all sorts of bladder dis
orders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active and clean, and the moment you
feel an ache or pain in the kidney
region, get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any good drug store here,
take tablespoonful in a gllss 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
lthia, and is harmless to flush clogged
kidneys nd stimulate them to normal
activity.ep.t also neutralizes the acids
in the urine so it no longer irritates,
thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is harmless; inexpensive;
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which everybody should take
now and then to keep their kidneys clean,
thus avoiding serious complications. q
a well-lznown local druggist says he
SELLS lots of Jad Salts 10 folks who believe
in overcoming kidney trouble while it is
only trouble.
