Rheumatism is easier to fcvoid than
to cure, suites a well-known authority.
We are advised to dress -warmly, keep
the - feet , dry, avoid exposure, and
above all, drink plenty of uood water
and avoid eating sweets of, all kind.
Rheumatism - is caused by body
waste and acids resulting from food
fermentation. It is the function . of
the kidneys to filter this poison from,
the blood and cast it out in the urine ; .
the pores of the skin-are also a. means
of freeing the blood of this impurity.
In damp and chilly cold weather the
skin pores are closed, thus forcing
the kidneys to do double work ; they
become weak and sluggish and fail to
eliminate this waste and acids, which
keeps accumulating and circulating
through the, system, eventtiajly settling
in the joints arid muscles; earning, stjff

ounces of Jad Salts; put a tablespoon
f ul in a glass of "water -and drink be
fore breakfast each morning for a week.
This is helpful to neutralize acidity,
remove waste matter, also to stimulate
the kidneys, thus often ridding the blood
of rheumatic poison.
Jad Sails is inexpensive, and is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithla, and is used
with excellent results by thousands of
folks wh6 are subject to rheumatism.
