Not a Bite of Breakfast Until
 You Drink Water Says a glass of hot water and phosphate prevents illness
 and keeps us fit.

Just as coal when it burns, leaves be- hind a certain amount of incombustible material in the form of ashes, so the food and drink taken day after day leaves in the alimentary canal a certain amount of indigestible material, which if not completely eliminated from the system each day, becomes food for the millions of bacteria which infest the bowels. From this mass of leftover waste, toxins and ptomain-ltl1e poisons are formed and sucked into the blood.
 Men and women who can't get feel ing right must begin to take inside baths Before eating breakfast each morning drink glass of real hot water with teaspoonful of limestone phos- phate in it to wash out of the thirty feet of bowels the previous days ac- emulation of poisons and toxins and to keep the entire alimentary canal clean pure and fresh.
 Those who are subject to sick head ache, colds, biliousness, constipation, others who wake up with bad taste, foul breath, backache, rheumatic stiffness, or have sour, gassy stomach after meals, are urged to get a quarter pound of limestone phosphate from the drug store and begin practicing internal sanitation. This will cost very little, but is suffic- tent to make anyone an enthusiast on the subject.
 Remember, inside bathing is more inn portant than outside bathing, because the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, causing poor health, while the bowel pores do. Just as soap and hot water cleanses, sweetens and freshens the skin, so hot water and limestone phosphate act on the stomach,
 liver. kidneys and bowels.-Adv.

 ton Election M M

J. T. Doster, head of the farm move ment of the Chamber of Commerce, will confer with 9 prominent cattlemen of Jeff ferson county at the Chamber of Com- merce this morning at il o'clock. Plans will be made to complete the circulation Of petitions seeking to hold an election on the eradication of the cattle tick in Jeff ferson county.

What is poison for one is food for an other, it is said. This is true with respect to bananas. Some relish them, while others find them very difficult to digest and this was the case with MT. J. R. Veno, a machinist with the Perkins Sash and Door eananany of Augusta, Ga. He

tries if the ship carrying them comes vol untarily into British port. This direct ly affects mail to Holland, and the United States, backed by other neutral countries, it is said will take the stand that since it is impossible on account of the British war measures in the English channel for Dutch liners to avoid coming within the three-mile limit the mails aboard them are entitled to the samesim- munity as those aboard ships which for cibly are brought into port from the high seas.
 A novel feature of the controversy is the holding up of British mails to Russia by Sweden, this being the first tangible reprisal measure by neutral.
 Swedish diplomats declare that since the Swedish government forbds the ex- port of certain articles she has a right to hold up the British parcel port. and to seize such goods which, according to the English argument, are not entitled any more to protection than is ordinary freight

HUNTSVILLE

Huntsville, January 19.-(Special. )-After ing too late each season, the business men and farmers of Huntsville and Madi- son county appear to be nearer success with their proposed county fair project than ever before. The agricultural com mittee of the Chamber of Commerce has drawn up plans for submission to the business council of the organization pro- viding for the organization of fair asso- citation with a capital stock of $5000. The Chamber of Commerce will take stock in the association and give it financial back ing. The farmers will be invited to join the association and the fee will be only ST. which will cause the stock to be dis tributed among a great many people.

ties of their screen careers to inn press the patrons of the movies" It is a picture of rare splendor, with the artistic touch of Las<y photography and De Mile direc- ton. It gives Miss Ridgely chance to display her versatility and Mir. Reid ably seconds her ef- forts. The story of 'The Golden Chance" is unusually interesting as well as diverting, and advance mo- tices are that such features as this add much to the prestige of moving pictures.
 "The Other Side of the Door," with Harold Lockwood and May Allison, will be shown at the Colo nial today. This is a story of San Francisco in the early fifties and full of the rough action of those virile times. Lockwood, as the young man who dissipated his en- tire fortune, but to whom one wom- an at least remained loyal, has an- other of his noted heroic types to portray Miss Allison, as "the girl" is every bit as charming as in her previous efforts with MT. Lockwood.
 A Galnef naughty plClule, l ut Thirteenth Girl" will be shown at the Odeon Two today. It is a Vita graph feature in which the lingerie on several comedy young maids is very much in evidence. In fact, "The Thirteenth Girl" had much difficulty in passing the national board of censorship and was only allowed grace when several of the naughtiest episodes were clipped. However, some of the spice still re- mains.
 Patrons of the Trianon were pleased yesterday with ''The Fourth Estate" the Fox film of newspaper life, which will be shown again to- day. "The Fourth Estate is the joint work of Joseph Medill Pat terson and Harriet Ford and was great stage success. In pictures this success will be easily duplicat- ed, as Clifford Bruce and Ruth Blair are excellent in the leading roles of the latest Fox feature.
 
 'Water Stuff" another of those humorous Charlie Van Loan stories made over to pictures, will be shown today at the Odeon One, with Art Accord in the star role. Getting in Wrong," with pretty Neva Gerber, is another film at the Odeon One today.
 "The Miser's Heart with Rob- ert Harron and Inez Seabury, a Biograph reissue, will be shown at the Princess theatre today. This is one of the Griffith directed Bio- graphs which are now being re- issued from time to time in accord ance with popular demand.
 The World film production of Clyde Fitch's masterpiece, "The City" thoroughly impressed the pa irons of the Rialto yesterday. This feature will be shown again today. ''The City, is a drama in which the effects of city influences on the idealist from the country are shown.
 'The Red Circle" is making great hit.

 CONTROVERSY AT
 AN ACUTE STAGE
Both Sides Refuse to Allow Rivals Mails to Move Through Respective
 Countries

London, January 19.-The controversy between Great Britain and Sweden over the detention of mails has reached an impasse with both sides stubbornly re- fusing to allow it's rivals mails to be eX- pedited through the respective countries. Sweden now is holding an enormous ousntity of the British post destined for Russia while mail is being taken from every Scandinavian liner brought into Kirlxwall, Scotland.
 Vigorous representations are being made by the diplomats of both countries, but the controversy presents so many novel features that extensive debates may be expected Neutral diplomatic circles here are more concerned over the deten- tion of mails than any other fact arising from the British blockade.
 The foreign office here takes the defi1 mite stand that no parcel, no matter what class of postage it bears, is no more en- titled to protection than is ordinary freight. The neutral countries have not yet controverted this stand, but base their objections on interferences and de- lays to which actual first-class postal correspondence has been subjected.
 Great Britain further claims the right to censor mails in transit to other coun-

 If these mawkish women and effem- mate men who worship the dove of peace will only attend a performance of "The Battle Cry of Peace" at the Alcazar theatre this week, they will recover from their dream of Utopia.

 In '"The Battle Cry of Peace" it is clearly impressed upon the audience that foreign influences is behind all peace-at-any-price movement in this and any other country The Teutons have a sort of world conquest dream and it is but natural that they would prefer q foe that was more unpre- pared than the allies they are fighting at the present time. And thus it is seen that it is this insidious influence that Hobbies at Washington for lower naval and military appropriations. In fact. "'The Battle Cry of Peace clear ly demonstrates that peace and dis armament propaganda is fostered al- ways by the enemy
 An excellent suggestion photograph ically visualized in "The Battle Cry of Peace" is that all the school chill dren be given military training. This seems a most excellent idea. Also the Boy Scout movement is greatly aided by "The Battle Cry of Peace,' as also the idea that this country should have Q. citizen soldiery of over a million. The Battle Cry of Peace is a mas ter stroke in cleaving the way to a larger American army and navy. It is bound to educate-even the blind taxpayers.
 "The New Henrietta" will be at the Jefferson next Monday and Tuesday night. There will be a special mati- nee on Tuesday. The cast can well be said to be all-star, as it contains on it's roster the names of William H. Crane, Amelia Bingham, Edith Taliaferro, Thomas Ross and Macklyn Arbuckle.
