IF BACK HURTS Take a ghua of Salts to flash Kidneys if Bladder bothers yon Drink . , lots of water. Eating meat regularly eventually pro duces kidney trouble in some form or other, says a well-known authority, be cause the uric acid in meat excites the kidneys, they ; become overworked ; get sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of distress, particularly backache and mis ery in the kidney region; rheumatic twin ges, severe headaches, acid stomach, con stipation, . torpid liver, aleeplesaneu, bladder and urinary irritation. The moment your back hurts or kid neys aren't acting right, or if bladder bothers you, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any good . pharmacy; take a tablenpoenful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity; also to neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer irri tates, thus ending bladder disorders. - Jad Salts cannot injure anyone; makes a delightful effervescent lithia wtter. drink which millions of men and women take now and then to keep tbe kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus avoiding serious kidney disease.
