Kidney and Bladder weakness result from uric acid, says a noted authority. The kidneys filter this acid from the blood and pass it on to the bladder, where it often remains to irritate and inflame, causing a burning, scalding sensation, or setting up an Irritation at tl.e neck of the bladder, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night. The sufferer is in constant dread, the water passes some times with a scalding sensation and is very profuse; again, there is diffi culty in avoiding it. Bladder weakness, most folks call It, because they can't contruC or, nation. While it is extremely annoying and sometimes very painful, this is really one of the most simple ailments to overcome. Get about four ounces of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and take a tablespoonfu! in a glass of wa ter before breakfast, continue this fox two or three days. This will neutral ize the acids in the urine so it no longer is a source o£ irritation to the bladder and urinary organs which then act normally again. Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless, and is made from the aclil of grapes and lemon Juice, combined with lithla, and is used by thousands of folks who are subject to urinary disorders caus ed by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is splendid foi kidneys and causes no bad effects whatever. Hero you have a pleasant, efferves cent llthia water drink, which quick ly relieves bluduer trouble. • MARCH 17, 1917.
