They become sluggish and weaken; then you man suffer with a dull misery in the kidney region, sharp pains in the back or sick headache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have •heumatic 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, got 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 fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined w'th Hilda, and has been used for years to help flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys; also to neutralize the acid.. In the system so they no longer irritate, thus often relieving bladder weakness. Gad Salts is inexpensive; cannot injure and makes a delightful effervescent lithla-water drink.
