Look and Feel
Clean, Sweet and
Fresh Every Day
Drink glass of real hot water
before breakfast to wash
out poisons.

Life is not merely to live, but to
live we'll, eat well, digest well, work
we'll, sleep well, look well. What a
glorious condition to attain, and yet
how very easy it is If one will only
adopt the morning inside bath.
Folks who are accustomed to feel
dull and heavy when they arise, split
ting headache, Stuffy from a cold, foul
tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach,
can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy
by opening the sluices of the system
each morning and flushing out the
whole of the internal poisonous stag
nant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
well, should, each morning, before
breakfast, drink a. glass of real hot
water with a teaspOonful of limestone
phosphate in it to wash from the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the
previous days indigestible waste,
sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus
cleansing, sweetening and pun flying
the entire alimentary canal before
putting more food into the stomach
The action of hot water and limestone
phosphate on an empty stomach is
wonderfully invigorating. 1t cleans
out all the sour lamentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one a
splendid appetite for breakfast. While
you are enjoying your breakfast the
water and phosphate is quietly ex-
tracing large volume of water from
the blood and getting ready for a
thorough flushing of all the inside
organs.
The millions of people who are
bothered with constipation, bilious
spells, stomach trouble, rheumatism;
others who have sallow skins, blood
disorders and sickly compilations are
urged to get a quarter pound of lime
stone phosphate from the drug store
which will cost very little, but is
sufficient to make anyone a pro-
nounced crank on the subject of
Internal sanitation.

THE MARKETING PROBLEM.

Jackson. Miss. Nov 20.-That the
1916 legislature should give very care
! full and serious consideration to the
problem of finding some means to
help the farmers of Mississippi advan-
tageously market their crops, is the
belief of Commissioner of Agriculture
H. E. Blakeslee, who gave out state
ment yesterday regarding the matter,
Mr.. Blakeslee strongly urges the
legislators to come here ready to en-
act helpful and constructive" legis-
lation to the end that the farmers
might profit thereby in the matter Of
marketing their crops.
The statement of Mr. Blakeslee,
which explains itself, in full is as fol-
lows:
The marketing of farm products is
\one of the most important problems
&onfronting the people Of Mississippi
al the present time. 1t is in fact
national question, but in the absence
oflaction by Congress there is some
thing the state can do.
EFFECTIVE help has been given the
farmer toward production by both
the state and national governments
for a number of years, but the prob
lem of marketing has received little
attention although it is as important,
or even more so, than the productive
end
Trucking crops are rotting in the
fields in one section of the country
while the price paid at the cOnsum-
ing end is frequently prohibitiye. The
consumer pays two or three times as
much for his supplies as the producer
gets for it at his railroad station.
Many marketing companies and Or
CARNATIONS have been formed in the
South but none have been successful
to a considerable degree. The usual
outcome has been that the farmer lost
the money he put into it and received
in return no benefits whatever
The Farmers Warehouse Co. was
the strongest organization of its kind
undertaken, and although differed by
good men, it finally went the way Of
all the others and the farmers who
put their money into it were doomed
to another bitter disappointment
Governmental control with the state
unit as the smallest practical, is I'M
doubtedly the evolution of this pre-
picking problem, and right here is
where the coming legislation has an
opportunity of performing a valuable
service for the people of the state.
Efficient help for the farmer is get
ting his products in proper shape for
the market, and then to assist in get
ting for them a reasonable price,
would be the best legislation that
could be enacted by the incoming body
of lawmakers.
This is a matter Of sufficient impOr-
lance to demand the very best thought
and action on the part of the represeIe-
natives who really desire to place q
piece of helpful and constructive leg
slation on the statute books of the
ate. n. {. BlakesIee,
Commissioner.

The benefits resulting from this

Mr.. Bush reports Frank out Of
danger, after one of the most deli.
cate operations ever performed in
the city of Denver. The opera.
ton performed by DR.. 1. B. Per.
kins, at st Lukes hospital, on the
3lst day of March, was ~occasioned
by the fear that the bullet would
in time effect the mind of the boy.
To this end, DIR. Perkins, assisted
by his two brothers, under the
auspices of the Saturday and Sun
day Hospital Association of Den
yer, the operation was performed
and the five pieces of the bullet
was removed from the brain, one
piece EMBEDDED to a depth of nearly
th~ree-fourth of an inch, and prob.
ing at that depth in the folds of
the brain, was one of the most
delicate operations that can be
performed upon the human anat-
imy. A perfect x-ray photo plain
ly showed the location of the
bullet, as soon as the photo was
developed and showed the position,
the operation Immediately fol-
lowed, and while the operation
WAS considered very dangerous,
yet at the time it was over, DIR.
Perkins gave out that the boy had
better than an even chance, and it
proved that he was right, as the
boy was out of danger in a few
hours to all appearance, and at
this date is apparently in the best
of health and spirits, and demand
ing good things to eat, and intend
coming home next week.
DR.. Perkins states, that after
following the course of the bullet
and where it was lodged, that it
had to pass through the brain and
just why it did not kill him in
stantly will never be known. This
operation is perhaps the most ex-
acting and delicate that has ever
been performed in the city of Den
yer.
