relieved by delightful touches of

RECIPE TO CLEAR
A PIMPLY SKIN
Pimples Are Impurities Seeking
An Outlet Through Skin
Pores.

Pimples, sores and boils usu-
ally result from toxins, potsons
and Impurities which are gen.
orally absorbed into the blood
through the very ducts which
should absorb only nourishment
to sustain the oooy.
1t is the function of the kid
neys to filter impurities from the
blood and cast them out in the
form of urine, but in many in
stances the bowels create more
toxins and impurities than the
kidneys can eliminate, then the
blood uses the skin pores as the
next best means of getting rid
Of these impurities which often
break out all over the skin in
the form of pimples.
The surest way to clear the
skin Of these eruptions. says a
noted authority. is to get from
any pharmacy about four ounces
of Jad Salts and take a table,
spoonful In a glass of hot water
each morning before breakfast
for one week. This will prevent
the formation Of toxins in the
bowels. 1t also stimulates the
Kidneys to normal activity. thus
coaxing them to filter the blood
OF impurities and clearing the
skin OF pimples.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harm
less and Is made from the acid
OF grapes and lemon juice. COM
bined with lithia. Here you have
a pleasant, effervescent drink
