QUIT MEAT IF YOUR
 KIDNEYS ACT BADLY
Take Tablespoonful of Salts If Back Hurts or Bladder Bothers-
 Drink Lots of Water.

We are a nation of meat eaters and our blood is filled with uric acid, says a well-known authority, who warns us to be constantly on guard against kid ney trouble.
 The kidneys do their utmost to free tle blood of this irritating acid, but become weak from the overwork; they get sluggish the eliminative tis.- tues clog and thus the waste is re- tained in the blood to poison the en- Ire system.
 When your kidneys ache and feel Ike Jumps of lead, and you have 5tin ging pains in the back CT the urine is cloudy, full of sediment or the bladder is irritable, obliging you to seek relief during the night; when you nave severe headaches, nervous and dizzy spells, sleeplessness, acid stom- ach or rheumatism in bad weather, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of lad Salts; take table spoonful in glass of water before breakfast each morning and in a few days your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, comb bined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys to neutralize the acids in urine so it is no longer 0 source of irritation, thus ending urin- ary and bladder disorders
 lad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful efferves- cent lithia-water drink, and nobody can make a mistake by taking little occasionally, to keep the kidneys clean and active.
