Acid Stomachs Are
Dangerous
Common Sonne Advice by a Dtatln
li'ulxlied Specialist
"Acid" stomachs are dangerous be
cause acid irritates and Inflames the
delicate lining of the stomach, thus
hindering and preventing the proper
action of the stomach, and leading to
probably nine-tenths of the cases of
stomach trouble from which people
suffer. Ordinary medicines and medi
cinal treatments are useless in such
cases, for they leave the source of the
trouble, the acid in the stomach, as
dangerous as ever. The acid must be
neutralized, and its formation prevent
ed, and the best thlnsr for this purpose
Is a teaspoonful of blsurated mag
nesia, a simple antacid, taken In a
little warm or cold water after eating,
which not only neutralizes the acid, but
also prevents the fermentation from
which acidity is devoloped. Foods which
ordinarily cause greatest distress may
be eaten with impunity if the meal Is
followed with a little blsurated mag
nesia. which can lie obtained from any
druggist, and should always be kept
handy.—Advertisement

FLUSHJIDNEYS
Eat less meat if you feel Backachy
or have Bladder
trouble
Meat forms uric acid which excites
and overworks the kidneys in their
efforts to illter it from the system.
Regular eaters of meat must flush
the kidneys occasionally. You must
relieve them like you relieve your
bowels; removing all the acids, waste
and poison, else you feel a dull mis
ery in the kidney region, sharp pains
in the back or sick headache, dtMi
ness, your stomach sours, tongue*
coated and when the weather is baw
you have rheumatic twinges. Tho
urine is cloudy, full of sediment; the
channels often get Irritated, obliging
you to get up two or three Umes dur
ing the night.
To neutralize these Irritating acids
and flush oft the body's urinous '-•aste
get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take a table
spoonful In a glass of water before
breakfast for a few days and your kid
neys will then act fine and bladder dis
orders disappear. This famous salts
is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon Juice, combinod with llthla, anil
has been used for generations to clean
and stimulate sluggish kidneys and
stop bladder Irritation. Jad Salts Is
Inexpensive; harmless and makes a
delightful effervescent llthla-water
drink which millions of men and
women take now and then, thjus
avoiding serious kidney and bladder
diseases.—Advertisement.
