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

Life is not merely to live, but to-
live well, eat we'll, digest well, work
well, sleep well, look we'll. What a
glorious condition to attain, and yet.
how very easy it is IL 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 cold, foul
tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach,
can, instead, feel as fresh as q 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 teaspoonful Of limestone
phosphate in it to wash from the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels tho
previous days indigestible waste, sour
bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans-
ing, sweetening and purifying the en-
tire alimentary tract before putting
more food into the stomach. The ac-.
tion of hot water and limestone phos-
phate on an empty stomach is wonder
fully invigorating. 1t cleans out all the
sour lamentations, gases, waste and
acidity and gives one a splendid ap-
petite for breakfast. While you are
enjoying your breakfast the water and
phosphate is quietly extracting large
volume Of water from the blood and
getting ready for thorough flushing,
Of all the inside organs.
The millions Of people who are both,
cred with constipation, bilious spells,
stomach trouble, rheumatism; others,
who have sallow skins, blood disor-
ders and sickly compilations are urged
to get a quarter pound of, limestone,
phosphate from any store that handles.

Address to CONGRESS.

shortly after 1 o'clock Wednesday aft
ernoon, he had given irreVocable noti-
fication to Germany that the United
States will break off diplomatic rela-
fions II her illegal submarine cam

A note, Americas last word, practi-
cally an ultimatum and demanding an
Immediate reply, presumably was in
the Berlin foreign office as the presi-
dent was speaking. 1t was dispatched
Tuesday night, in accordance with the
presidents plan to have it before the
German government at the same mo-
ment he was addressing the American
congress.
When he concluded with expression
of hope that Germany would so act as
TO avert regretable break with Amer
lea the assembly broke into cheers.
The president spoke as follows:
"A situation has arisen in the for.
eign relations Of the country of which
1t is my plain duty to inform you very
frankly.
"It will be recalled that in Febru
ary, 1915, the imperial German govern,

the waters surrounding Great Britain
and Ireland as embraced within the
seat Of war, and destroy all merchant
ships owned by its enemies that might
be found within any part of that por

in charge of the operations along

discussed the problems that have

whether the American troops were
to be recalled without having cap
tured Villa. He was sent here by
Secretary Of War Baker to discuss the
situation in detail with Gen. Funston
and to make to the secretary a per,
sonal report. Gen. Scott does not
intend going to Ell Paso or Columbus.

So many Americans now have per-.

and who are too fair-minded to let a.
false statement go unchallenged. A
case in point arises out of statement
supposed to be made by a resident Of

which the condition Of settlers in this
country was painted in very bad
way indeed. The writer of this at

 When the wharf and approach was wrecked by the storm it dropped the piledriver outfit into the bay at a point where the water was five fathoms or more

 The men started out with light packs OH snow shoes. Ender hal considerably the best of it in that he was more or less familiar with travel OH snow shoes while this was the first snow shoe trip that Hardy ever undertook. Any one with the slightest experience knows that the first trip on snow shoes even on level ground is an event to tax the strongest. When 1t comes to climbing mountains the proposition is infinitely harder.
