Recipe to Clear
a Pimply Skin
Pimpies Are Impurities Seek
ing an Outlet Through
Skin Pores.

Pimples, sores and boils usually re-
suit from toxins, poisons and impuri-
ties which are generated in the bowels
and then absorbed into the blood through
the very ducts which should absorb
only nourishment to sustain the body.
1t is the function o. the kidneys to
filter impurities from the blood and
cast them out in the form of urine, but
in many instances 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 impuri-
ties, 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 author
ity. is to get from any pharmacy about
four ounces Of Jad Salts and take a
tablespoonful in a glass of water each
morning before breakfast for one week.
This will help prevent the formation
of toxins in the bowels. 1t also slim
ulates the kidneys, thus coaxing them
to filter the blood of impurities and
clearing the skin OF pinples.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, and is made
from the acid OF grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia. Here YOU
have a pleasant, efferyescent drink which
usually helps make pirnples disappear.
