The following code will hide the text and re-display it with 6 second intervals in between.

var textshown = false;

$(document).ready(function() {  
  setInterval(function(){
    if(textshown == false) {
       $('#xhide').show();
       textshown = true;
    } else {
       $('#xhide').hide();
       textshown = false;
    }
  }, 6000);
});

<h1 style=" text-align: left; " id="xhide">Hello World</h1>

You can do this by using toggle function on classList

function hide(elementId) {
  document.getElementById(elementId).classList.toggle('hidden');
}

setInterval(hide, 6000, 'xhide');

.hidden {
  display: none;
}

<h1 id="xhide">Hello World</h1>
