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 fiharmacy here. Take a tablespoonful n a glass of water before breakfast for 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 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; can not injure and makes a delightful effervescent ' llthia-wnter drink.—Advertisement.
