EAT LESS MEAT
. 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.
