HELP KIDNEYS
 BY DRINKING MORE WATER
Take Salts to Flush Kid neys and Help Neutralize
 Irritating Acids

Kidney and bladder irritatlons of- ten result from acidity, says a noted authority. The kidneys help filter this acid from the blood and pass it on to the bladder. where it may re- main to irritate and inflame. causing a burning, scalding sensation, or set ting up an irritation at tho neck of the bladder. obliging you to seek re- lief two or three times during the night. Tho sufferer is in constant dread; the water passes sometimes with scalding sensation and is very profuse; again, there is difficulty in voiding it.
 Bladder weakness, most folks call 1t because they can't control urination. While 1t is extremely annoying and sometimes very painful. this Is often one of the most simple ailments to overcome. Begin drinking lots of soft water. also get about four ounces of lad Salts from your pharmacist and take 8 tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast. Continue this for two or three days. This will help nentralize the acids in the sys- tenn so they no longer are a source of irritation to the bladder and urinary organs which then act normal again,
 lad Salts Is inexpensive, and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and Is used by thousands of folks who are subject to urinary disorders caused by acid irritation. lad Salts causes no bad effects whatever.
 Here you have pleasant. efferves- cent lithia-water drink which may quickly relieve your bladder irrita- tion. By, all means have your phy- sician examine your kidneys at least twice a year.-Adv.
