EAT LESS AND TAKE
SALTS FOR KIDNEYS
Take a glass of Salts before breakfast
if your Back hurts or Bladder
bothers you.
The American men and women must
guard constantly against Kidney trouble,
because we eat too much and all our food
is rich. Our blood is filled with urio
acid which the kidneys strive to filter
out, they weaken from overwork, become
sluggish ; the eliminative tissues clog and
the result is kidney trouble, bladder
weakness and a general decline in health.
When your kidneys feel like lumps of
lead; your back hurts or the urine is
cloudy, full of sediment or you are
obliged to seek relief two or three times
during the night; u you suiter witli sick
headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid
stomach, or you have rheumatism when
the weather is bad, get from your phar
macist about four ounces of J ad Salts;
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.'
This famous salt is made from the acid
of grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been' used for generations
to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys;
to neutralize the acids in the urine so it
no longer is. a source of irritation, thus
ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure, makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water beverage, and belongs in
every home, because nobody can make
a mistake by having a good kidney flush
ing any time.
Always Moving Ahead
Thousands of the brightest minds in this country are de
voted to the development and improvement of Bell Telephone
service.
Steadily and constantly some fault is eliminated, soma
method improved, or some obstacle overcome.
To realize the steady progress that has been made one only
has to compare the quality and quantity of the service today
with what it was ten years ago.
Even in the last five years the number of telephones in use
has been practically doubled and the distance of telephone
transmission multiplied many times.
Our rates are the lowest possible and yet afford sufficient
revenue to pay a reasonable return on the money invested, after
paying" fair wages and after providing sufficiently to rebuild or
restore parts of the plant when destroyed by fires or storms, or
when it is worn out or becomes obsolete.
It is our constant endeavor to give the best service at the
lowest rates at which it can be furnished, so we shall be able to
connect everyone who will add to the service to others.
