RHEUMIATISM PAINS
ARE NOW IN SEASON

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, and
above all, drink plenty of good water
and avoid eating sweets of all kind.
rheumatism is caused by body
waste and acids resulting from food
fermentation. 1t Is the function of
the kidneys to filter this poison from
the blood and cast il out in the urine;
the pores Of the skin are also a means
of freeing the J. of this impurity.
IN damp and cD cold weather the
skin pores are closed thus forcing the
kidneys to do double work they be-
come weak and sluggish and fail to
eliminate this waste and acids, which
keeps accommodating and circulating
through the system, eventually set
ting 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 helpful to neutralize
acidity, remove waste matter, also to
stimulate the kidneys, thus often rid
ding the blood of rheumatic poison.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, and is
made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice. combined with lithia, and
is used with excellent results by thou
sands of folka who are subject to
ivertisement.
