EVERYONE SHOULD
DRINK HOT WATER
IN THE MORNING
Wash Away All the Stomach. Liver
and Bowel Poisons Before
Breakfast.

To feel your best day in and day
out, to feel clean inside. no sour bile
to coat your tongue and sicken your
breath or dull your head; no consti-
patton, bilious attacks, sick head
aches, colds, rheumatism or gassy,
acid stomach, you must bathe on the
vastly more important. because the
in the blood. while the bowel pores
do. says a well-known physician.
To keep these poisons and toxins
well flushed from the stomach, liver,
kidneys, and bowels. drink before
breakfast each day a glass of hot wa
ter with a teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it. This will cleanse,
purify, and freshen the entire ali
mentary tract, before putting more
food into the stomach.
Get a quarter pound of limestone
phosphate from your pharmacist II
is inexpensive and almost tasteless
except a sourish twinge. which is not
unpleasant. Drink phosphated hot
water every morning to rid your sys-
tenn of these vile poisons and toxins;
also to prevent their formation.
To feel like young folks feel; like
you felt before your blood, nerves
and muscles became saturated with an
accumulation of body poisons, begin
this treatment, and above all, keep it
up! As soap and water act upon the
skin, cleansing and sweetening and
purifying, so limestone phosphate and
hot water before breakfast act on the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels.

You Must Purify Your Blood
In the Spring

Are you simply dragging your way
through life, suffering tortTres from
some blood malady that has stolen
your health. robbed you of the ability
to enjoy life's pleasures, made the fu-
ture a hopeless uncertainty, and left
YOU but a shadow of your former
strong self?
II so, let us warn you to look to your
blood, and you VIII likely find the
cause Of your trouble. Poisoned blood
can be blamed for more disease and
suffering than any other thing, and
there can be no health until the life
Iluid, that feeds and builds up every
part OF the body is made pure and free
from poison.
whether your bad blood is shown by
malaria, rheumatism, Catarrh. scrofula,
contagious blood poison. or some other
blood disorder, you can be well, and
again feel the bounding buoyancy of
health that comes only with pure and
well-nourished blood.
