SALIS FINE FOR
U
When Back Hurts Flush Your
Kidneys as You. Clean
Your Dowels.
Most folks forget that the kid
neys, like the bowels, sometimes
get sluggish and clogged and
need a flushing occasionally, else
we have backache and dull mis
cry in the kidney region, severe
headaches, acid stomach, sleep
lessness and all sorts of bladder
disorders.
You simply must keep your kid
neys active and clean and the mo
lent-you-fed an-ache
the kidney region begin drinking
lots of water. Also get about
four ounces of Jad Salts from any
good drug store here, take a ta
blespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act
fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lem
on juice, combined with hthia and
is intended to flush clogged kid
neys and help stimulate them to
activity. It also helps neutral
ize the acids in the urine so they
no longer irritate, thus helping
to relieve bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; makes
a delightful effervescent Hthia
water drink which everybody
should take now and then to keep
their kidneys clean.
A well known local druggist
says he sells lots of Jad Salts to
folks who believe in trying to
correct kidney trouble while it is
only a trouble. By all irfeans
have your physician examine your
kidneys at least twice a year.—

Ye Puritan Pessimist
Ye worlde is fulle of woe. Ye
pathway of manne from ye cradle
to ye grave Is lined with brambles.
Laughter Is ever wette with tears.
An unscrupulous viper lurketh In ye
glasses of sparkling wine, or, any
how, it used to do so e’er prohibi
tion came uponne us. You fancy
you cannot live without n certain
female, and a little later, behold,
you cannot live with her. You
sniffe ye fragrance of ye dewy rose
and n gadsnapper stingeth you on
ye nose. And thus it goeth, and
thus, I wot. it will continue to go
until ye end of time. Such being the
case, there is nothing for us to do
but hump our backs Vtke an olde
sheep in a hailstorm, pull down our
hattes and thank providence for
what it hasn’t done to us. ' r
