FLUSH THE KIDNEYS
BEFORE BREAKFAST
Drink Lots of Water, Also
Take a Little Salts if
Back Hurts

No man or woman can make a
mistake by flushing the kidneys oc-
casionally, says a well known au--
| thority. Eating too much rich food
creates acids, which excite the kid
neys. They become overworked from
| the strain, get sluggish and fail to
| filter the waste and poiSonS from
the blood. Then We get sick. Rheu-
matism, headaches, liver trouble,
nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessress
and urinary disorders often come
from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel dull acne
in the kidneys, or your back hurts,
or If the urine Is cloudy, offensive,
| full of sediment, irregular OF pas
sage or attended by a sensation OF
scalding, begin drinking a quart OF
water each day. also get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar-
macy: take a tablespoonful in O
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,
| combined 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 re-
| lieving bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; makes a
delightful effervescent Whitewater
drink which everyone should take
now and then to help keep the kid
news clean and active and the blood
pure, thereby often avoiding serious
kidney complications. - Advertise
