LESS MEAT IF BACK
AND KIDNEYS HURT
Take a Glass Of Salts to Flush
Kidneys II Bladder
Bothers You.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some form
or other, says a well-known authority,
because the uric acid in meat excites
the kidneys, they become overwOrked /;
get sluggish; clog up and cause all
sorts of distress, particularly back
ache and misery in the kidney region /;
rheumatic twinges, severe headaches,
acid stomach, constipation, torpid
liver, sleeplessness, bladder and uri-
nary Irritation.
The 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 a glass of
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys win then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush clogged kid
neys and stimulate them to normal
activity; also to neutralize the acids
In the urine so it no longer irritates,
thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone (;
makes a delightful effervescent 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.-Adv.
