MEAT CAUSE OF KIDNEY TROUBLE Take a glass of Salts if your Back hurts or Bladder bothers—Meat forms uric acid. Ts you miist have your meat every day, 1 eat it, but flush your kidneys with salts j occasionally, says a noted authority who tells us that, meat forms uric acid which almost paralyzes the kidneys in their ef forts to expel it from the blood. They become sluggish and weaken, then you suffer with a dull misery in the kidney region, sharp pains in the hack or sick headache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue is coated and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the channels often get sore and irritated, obliging you to seek relief two or three time during the night. To neutralize these irritating acids, to cleanse the kidneys atid flush off the body’s urinous waste get four ounces of Jal Salts from any pharmacy here; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then aet. fine. 'Jliie famous salts is made f; om the acid of grapes and lernon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generationa to flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize the acids in urine, so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder weakness Tad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in jure, and makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink. f!io Culrine Tbit Cc?c wot Affect the festf V ct its U fi vl lflzrifiv? f i*c. t.
