KIDNEY TROUBLE NOT EASILY RECOGNIZED Applicants for Insurance Often Rejected. t (We e&t too much meat which clogs Kidneys, theo. the Back hurts Most people forget that the kidneys. like the bowels, get sluggish and clogged and need a flushing occasion ally, else we have backache and dull misery In the kidney region, severe headaches, rheumatic twinges, torpid liver, acid stomch, sleeplessness and all sorts of bladder disorders. - Ton simply must keep your kidneys active and clean, and the moment you feel an ache or pain In the kidney region, get about four ounces of Jad Falls from any good drug store here, take a tablespoonful In a glass of water before breakfast for a few days snd your kidneys will then act fire. This famous salts is made . from tne acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with llthia. and Is harmless to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity. It also neu tralizes the acids in the urine so it no longer Irritates, thus ending bladder disorders. Jad Salts Is harmless; inexpensive; makes a delightful effervescent lithia water drink which everybody should take now and then to keep their kid neys clean, thus avoiding serious com plications. A well-known local druggist says he sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who believe in overcoming kidney trouble while Jt is only trouble. Adv. An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Compan ies, in an interview on the subject, made the astonishing statement that one rea son why so many applicants for in surance are rejected is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people, and the large majority of those whose applications are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease.
