Drink water TO
AVOID SICKNESS
SAYS AUTHORITY
Glass of hot water be-
fore breakfast daily
keeps the doctor
away.

Sanitary science has of late made
rapid strides with results that are OF
untold blessing to humanity. The lat
est application of it's untiring research
is the recommendation that it is as
necessary TO attend to internal santa
tion Of the drainage system of the hu-
man body as it is to the drains OF the
house.
Those Of us who are accustomed TO
feel dull and heavy when we arise,
splitting headache, stuffy from cold,
foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stonl-
ach. 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
stagnant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
we'll should each morning before
breakfast. drink a glass of real hot
water with a teaspoonful Of limestone
phosphate in it to wash from the stom-
ach, liver and bowels the previous
days indigestible waste, sour bile and
poisonous toxins: thus cleansing,
sweetening and purifying the entire
alimentary canal before putting more
food into the stomach. The action of
rot water and limestone phosphate on
an empty stomach is wonderfully in
vigorating. 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 phosphated hot
water is quietly extracting q large VOL
ume Of water from the blood and get
ting ready for a thorough flushing of
all the inside organs.
The millions of people who are both
cred with constipation, bilious spells,
stomach trouble, rheumatic stiffness:
others who have sallow skins, blood
disorders and sickly compilations are
urged to get quarter pound of lime
stone phosphate from the drug store
This will cost very little, but is sufi-
cient to make anyone a pronounced
crank on the subject Of internal santa
ton.
