8A0 TAKE SALTS
Says Backache Often Means You
Have Not Been Drinking
Enough Water.
When you wake up with back
ache and dull misery in the kid
ney region it may mean you have
been eating foods which create
acids, says a well known author
ity. An excess of such acicls
overwork the Kidneys in their ef
fort to filter it from the blood
.
and they become sort of paralyz
ed and loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog you must
relieve them, like you relieve your
bowels, removing all the body’s
urinous waste, else you have back
ache, sick headache, dizzy spells;
your stomach sours, tongue is
coatted and when the weather
is bad, you have rheumatic twin
ges.
The urine is cloudy, full of sedi
ment, channels often get sore,
water scalds and you are obliged
to seek relief two or three times
during the night.
Either consult a good, reliable
physician at once or get from
your pharmacist about four ounces
of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful
in a glass of water before break
fast for a few days and your
kidneys may then act fine, This
famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and has been
used for years to help clean and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also
to neutralize acids in the system,
so they no longer irritate thus
aften relieving bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, can not
injure and makes a delightful, ef
fervescent lithia water drink.
Drink lots of soft water. By all
means have your physician exam
ine your kidneys at least twice
a year.—(Adv.)
