TO CURE BACKACHE. A SPECIALIST’S ADVICE. Backache, that excruciating agonisinj. pain in the small of the back which almost drives one crazy, anti often makes the slightest movement torture, is almost invariably due to the failure of the kidneys to do their work properly. The first thing that happens when the kidneys begin to fad is the deposit of uric acid crystals, which usually first make their presence felt in the nerve sheathes in the big muscles of the hack and hips. Whenever the condition occurs, there are two things to be done: first, dissolve out the uric acid crystals, and second, restore the natural tone and vigour of the kidneys, so that the uric acid which continually forms in the body is filtered from the blood and flushed out of the system in a natural manner instead of being permitted to collect and crystallise as described above. Formerly, to accomplish these two objects it was necessary to take expensive courses of treatment at famous springs, but an eminent scientist has recently discovered that the same result may be secured at slight expense by drinking, three or four times a day, a glass of water in which has been dissolved a teaspoonful of Alkia Saltrategr These saltrates, which in their refined form enable you to reproduce the curative and medicinal properties of the most famous springs, and are obtainable of any chemist, should, in a few days, not only remove all uric acid from the blood, thus causing backache, rheumatism, and lumbago to disappear, but they w,ill also. at. the same time, restore the kidneys to normal activity and perfect health, thus guaranteeing freedom from future attacks.—Adrt»
