SALTS IF BACKACRY
AND KIDNEYS HURT
sion Eating Meat for a While if Your
Bladder is Troubling You.

When you wake up with backache
and dull miseryin the kidney region it
generally means YOU have been eating
too much meat. says a weli-known au-
.thority. Meat forms uric acid which
overworks the kidneys in their effort
to filter it from the blood and they
become sort of paralyzed and loggy.
When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog YOU must relieve them, like you
relieve your bowels: removing all the
bod,'s urinous waste, else you have
backache, sick headache, dizzy spells;
your stomach sours tongue is coated,
and when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, fun of sediment, channels Of
ten get sore. water scalds and you are
obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night
Either consult good, reliable ply
sician at once or get from your phar-
macist about four ounces of Jad salts;
take a tablespoonful in glass of wa
ter before breakfast for few days
and your kidneys will 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 clean and stimulate
sluggish kidneys, also to neutraiize
acids in the urine so it no longer irrl-
tates, thus ending bladder weakness.
d Salts is a life saver for regular
meat eaters 1t is inexpensive, cannon
iniure and makes a delightful, etter-
vescent lithia water drink.
