In damp and chilly, cold weather the gkin pores are closed thus forcing the kidneys to do double ‘work, they become weik and sluggish and fail to eliminate this uric acid which keeps accumulating and circu- iating through the system. eventually mettling in the joints and muscles causing stiffness, soreness and pain rheumatistn. the first twinge of rheumatism get from any cy about four ounnc of Jad Salts: put a tablespoon- ful n & glass of water and drink be- fore t each morning for a This is said to eliminate urio xold by stimulating the kidneys to normal action, thus ridding the hlood of these impurities.
