Report Many Cases
of Rheumatism Now
Says we must keep feet dry; avoid
exposure and eat
less meat

Stay off the damp ground, avoid
exposure, keep feet dry. eat less
meat, drink lots of water and above
all take spoonful of salts occasion
ally to keep down uric acid
Rheumatism is caused by poison
GUS toxin, called uric acid, which is
generated in the bowels and alb
sorbed into the blood. 1t is the func-
ton Of the kidneys to filter this acid
from the blood and cast it out in the
urine. The pores of the skin are
also a means Of freeing the blood of
this impurity. In damp and chilly,
cold weather the skin pores are
closed, thus forcing the kidneys to
do double work, they become weak
and sluggish and fail to eliminate
this uric acid, which keeps saccumu-
Iating and circulating through the
system, eventually settling in the
joints and muscles, causing stiffness,
soreness and pain, called rheuma-
tism
At the first twinge OF rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces OF Jad Salts; put table,
spoonful in a glass Of water and
drink before breakfast each morn
ing for week. This is said to elimi-
nate uric acid by stimulating the
kidneys to normal action, thus rid
ding the blood Of these impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and lie made from the acid of grapes
and lemon Juice, combined with
lithia, and is used with excellent re-
suits by thousands of folks who are
subject to rheumatism. Here you
have a pleasant, effervescent llthia-
water drink which overcomes uric
acid and is beneficial to your kid
neys as well.
