URIC ACID IN MEAT CLOGS THE KIDNEYS Take a glans of Salts if your Huck harts or niadder bothers. If you must have your meat every day, eat it, but flush your kidneys with salts occasionally, says a noted authority who tells us that meat forms uric acid which almost paralyzes the kidneys in their efforts to expel lt from the blood. They become slug gish and weaken, then you suffer with a dull misery in the kidney region, sharp pains in the back or sick head ache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue is coated and when the weath er is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full of sedi ment, the channels often get sore and irritated, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night. To neutralize these Irritating acids to cleanse the kidneys and flush off the body's urinous waste get four ounces of Jad Salts from any phar macy Mere; take a tablespoonful in a Klaas of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will theti act fine. This famous salts is made fmrn the setd cf grapes ami lerner juice, combined with lithla, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize the acids in urine, BO it no longer Irritates, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts Is inexpensive; cannot in ter? , and makes a delightful efferves cent lithla-water drink fa thirst is a great blessing if you can get ChenvC?ola.Drink it from the oottle fbr?ijgh a straw* Alw?ys uniform.
