HAVE KIDNEYS EXAMINED BY YOUR DOCTOR Take Salts to Wash Kidneys If Back Pains You or Bladder Bothers Flush your kidneys by drinking a quart of water each day, also take salts occasionally says a noted authority, who tells us that too much rich food forms acids which almost paralyze the kidneys in their efforts to expel it from the blood. They become sluggish and weaken; then you may suffer with a dull misery in the kidney region sharp pains in the back or siek 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 times during the night. To help neutralize these irritating acids, to help cleanse the kidneys and flush off the body's urinous waste, get four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy here; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days, and your kidneys may then act tine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for years to help flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in the system so they no longer irritate, thus often relieving bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot injure and makes a delightful effervescent lithla-water drink. By all , means have your physician examine your kidneys at least twice a year. o MARRIAGE LICENSES Earl A. Crider, traveling salesman.
