QUART Of WATER
CLEANS KIDNEYS
Take a Little Salts If Your
Back Hurts, or Bladder
Is Troubling You

No man or woman can make a
mistake by flushing the kidneys oc-
casionaIly, says a wel1-known
authority Eating too much rich
food creates acids, which excite
the kidneys. They become over
worked from the strain, get slug.
gish and fail to filter the waste
and poisons from the blood. Then
we get sick. Rheumatishn, head
aches. liver trouble. nervousness,
dizziness, sleepless11ess often come
from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache
in the kidneys, or your back hurts,
begin drinking quart OF water
each day, also get about four
ounces of Jad Ealts from any phar-
macy; take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast,
and in 2. few days your kidneys
may act fine.
This famous salts is made from
the acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and has been
used for years to flush and stimu-
late the kidneys; also to help neu-
fraliZe the acids in the system, SO
they no longer cause irritation, thus
often relieving bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; makes
q 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 complications
