IF KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Backache is sign you have
been eating too much
meat

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
it generally means that you have
been eating too much meat, says a
well-known authority. Meat forms
uric acid which overworks the kid
neys in their effort to filter it from
the blood and they become sort of
paralyzed and loggy. When your
kidneys get sluggish and clog you
must relieve them, like you relieve
your bowels; removing all the body's
urinous waste, else you have back
ache, sick headache, dizzy spells;
your stomach sours, tongue is coat
ed. 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 a good, reliable
physician at once or get from your
pharmacist about four ounces of Jad
Salts; tax a tablespoonful in glass
of water before breakfast for few
days and your kidneys will then act
fine. This famous sales 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 so it no
longer irritates. thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Sales is a life saver for regu-
lar meat eaters. 1t is inexpensive,
cannot injure and makes a delight

CHAPTER l..
The room into which Amos Chaplin

TT is bad for children TO do for

No, hiding matches is not the only

Your boy should have an abund-
