No man or woman can make a mis
take by flushing the kidneys occasion
ally, says a well-known authority.
Too much rich food creates acids
which clog the kidney pores so that
they sluggishly filter or strain only
part of the waste and poisons from
the blood. Then you get tick. Rheu
matism, headaches, lirer trouble, nerv
ousness, constipation, dizziness, sleep
lessness, bladder disorders often come
from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in
the kidneys or your, back hurts, or if
the urine is cloudy, offenshre, full of
sediment, irregular of passage, or at
tended by 1 a' sensation of scalding,
begin to drink soft water in Quanti
ties; also get about four ounces of ;
Jad Salts from any reliable phar
macy and take a tablespooafttl in a
glass of water before breakfast for a
tew days and your kidneys may then
act fine.
' This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, com
bined with lithia, and has been used
for years to help flush clogged, kid
neys and stimulate them to activity,
also to help neutralize the acids in the
system so they no longer cause irrita
tion, thus often relkring bladder dis
orders. .V :yf. :
- Tad Salts is inexpensnre and cannot
injure ; makes a delightful efferves
cent Itthia-water drink, which every
one can take now and then to help
keep the kidneys clean and the blood
pure; thereby often preventing serious
kidney, complications. .. . ;r .
