Ne acer Gays a little Salts in water may fave you from dread attack. Rheumatism is easter to avoid than to cure, states a well-known authority. We are ad d to dre: the feet dry: avoid meat, but drink plenty of good water Rheumatism is a direct result: of eating too much meat and other rich foods that produce urie acid which is absorbed into the blood. It is the function of the kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast it out in ye urine; the pores of the skin are so a means of freeing the blood of is impurity. In damp and chilly Id weather the skin pores are closed, thus forcing the kidneys to do double work; they become weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate the uric acid which keeps accumulating and circu- lating through the system, eventually settling in the joints and muscles, causing stiffness, soreness and pain led rheumatism. At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four - el of Jud Salts; put a tablespoon- ful In a glass of water and drink be- fore breukfast each morning for a week. This is said to eliminate uric acid by stimulating the kidneys to normal action, thus ridding the blood of these impurities. Jad Salts is Piatti harmless and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and {6 used with excellent results by thousands of folks who are subject to rheumatism. Here you have a pleasant, effervescent lithia-water drink which helps overcome uric acid and is bene- ficial to your kidneys as well.—Advt. ————————— World Wants Work Wonders.
