No man or woman can make a mis-
take by flushing the kidneys OCCASION

ing too much rich food creates acids,
which excite the kidneys. They become
overworked from the strain, get slug

poisons from the blood. Then we get

trouble, nervousness, dizziness, sleep
lessness and urinary disorders often
come from sluggish kidneys
The moment you feel dull ache in
the kidneys, or your back hurts, or if
the urine is cloudy, offensive. full of
sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by sensation of scalding, begin
drinking a quart of water each day,
also get about four ounces OF Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take tablespoon
full in glass of water before breakfast,
and in a few days your kidneys may act
fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used
for years to flush and stimulate the
kidneys; also to help neutralize the
acids in the system, so they no longer
cause irritation, thus often relieving
bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is Inexpensive; makes a
delightful effervescent Whitewater drink
which everyone should take now and
then to help keep the kidneys clean
and active and the blood pure, thereby
often avoiding serious kidney complica-
tions. By all means have your physi-
clan examine your kidneys at least

who came to apply for a part in

Casting Director Ryan informed
the professional that he was not
the right type for the character,
took keen look at his companion
