AND KIDNEYS HURT
Take glass of Salts to flush Kidneys
if Bladder bothers you-Drink
lots Of water.

Eating meat regularly eventually pro-
duces kidney trouble in some form or
other, says well-known authority, be-
cause the uric acid in meat excites the
kidneys, they become overworked; get
sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts Of
distress, particularly backache and mis-
cry in the kidney region; rheumatic twin
ges, severe headaches, acid stomach, con-
stipation, torpid liver, sleeplessness,
bladder and urinary irritation.
TIE moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces Of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take a tablespoonful in glass of water
before breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous
salte is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with 1ithia,
and has been used for generations to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them
to normal activity; also to neutralize the
acids in the urine so it no longer irri-
tdtes, thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes delightful elfervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney disease.
