DRUGS EXCITE THE KIDNEYS, DRINK WATER Take Salts at First Sign of Bladder Irritation or Backache The American men and women must guard constantly against kidney trouble because we often eat too much rich food. Our blood is filled with acids which the kidneys strive to filter out; they weaken from overwork, be- come sluggish, the eliminative tissues clog and the result is kidney trouble, bladder weakness ana a general de- cline in health. When your kidneys feel like lumps of lead; your back hurts or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment or you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night; if you suffer with sick headache, or dizzy, nervous spells, acid stomach, or if you have rheumatism when the weather is bad, begin drinking lots of good soft wa- ter and get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts. Take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few 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 and stimulate | clogged kidneys, to neutralize the | acids in the system so they no longer {are a source of irritation thus often | relieving bladder disorders. | Jadd Salts in inexpensive; cannot injure, makes a delightful effervescent | lithia-water drink and belongs in every home, because nobody can make a mistake by having a good kidney flushing any time. By all means have your physician examine your kidneys | at least twice a year.
