URIC ACID IN MEAT
BRINGS RHEUMATISM
Saws aiittIe Salts in water may
save you from dread
attack.

Rheumatism is easier to avoid than
to cure, states "a well-known authority.
We are advised to dress warmly; keep
the feet dry; avoid exposure; eat less
meat, but drink plenty of good water.
/ rheumatism is a direct result of
eating too much meat and other rich
foods that produce uric acid which is
absorbed into the blood. 1t is the
function 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 >i1npurity. 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 the uric acid
which keeps accommodating and circu-
Iating through the system, eventually
settling in the joints and muscles caus-
ing Stiffness, soreness and pain called
rheumatism.
AT the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces of Jad Salts; put a tablespoon
full in a glass of water and drink be-
fore breakfast each morning for a
week. This is said to eliminate uric
acid by stimulating the kidneys to
normal action, thus Kidding the blood
of these impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive. harmless
and is made from the acid of grapes

suits by thousands of folks who are
subject to rheumatism. Here you have
