Get the Habit of Drinking Hot Water
 Before Breakfast
Says we can't look or feel right with the system full
 of poisons.

Millions of folks bathe internally now instead of loading their system with drugs What's an inside bath ?'' you say. Well, tis guaranteed to per form miracles if you could believe these hot water enthusiasts.
 There are vast numbers of men and women who, immediately upon arising in the morning, drink glass of real hot water with teaspoonful of lime stone phosphate in it. This is a very excellent health measure. It is in- tended to flush the stomach. liver, kid neys and the thirty feet of intestines of the previous days waste. sour bile and indigestible material left over in the body which. if not eliminated ey- cry day, become food for the millions of bacteria which infest the bowels. the quick result is poisons and toxins which are then absorbed into the blood causing headache. bilious attacks, foul breath, bad taste, colds, stomach trou- ble, kidney misery, sleeplessness. i'm  pure blood and all sorts of ailments.
 People who feel good one day and badly the next. but who simply can not get feeling right are urged to ob- tain quarter pound of limestone phos phate at the drug store. This will cost very little but is sufficient to make anyone real crank on the sub ject of internal sanitation.
 Just as soap and hot water act on the skin, cleansing. sweetening and freshening, so limestone phosphate and hot water act on the stomach, liv- CT. kidneys and bowels. Il is vastly more important to bathe on the inside than on the outside, because the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood. while the bowel pores do.

Busi- ness men in both cities are fully alive to the possibilities of the new camp, and have sent committees to report on the opportunities to be found there. As result Tucson has raised fund Of s100,0O0 to build road to the new camp. while Phoenix and Maricopa county business men are preparing to construct a thirty-mile link in the highway between Arlington and Gila Bend.

U. s. HAS 9O,OOO
 TROOPS ON BORDER
Nation Will Have 15O,
 Seasoned Militia Soon.

Three weeks of mobilization activity has sent 38,OOO militiamen to the south ern border from the twenty-one states in the department of the east and has placed 5000 in the home camps of those states. The 38,OOO now encamp- cd along the border or on their way to the border are the pick of the guards men of the country, the best trained and best equipped, but it required an enormous amount of effort to get them started.
 Staff officers of the regular army point to these figures as sufficient evi- dence of the lack of coordination in the national guard and as proof that the system of equipping and transport ing militia troops is outworn and inef- ficient If 1t required three times as long for the United States to put 38,OO0 men in the field as it took the French government to get 100000 men ready for service, what would happen, staff officers ask, if the war department found it necessary to hustle 15O,OO0 men to a given point at top speed?
 It IS eSLludIeQ C0dL there are HOW 9O,OO0 soldiers guarding the border, 40,- 900 militiamen from the department of the east, 10000 from the rest of the country and 3OOOO from the regular army.
 Reports to Governors island from the border show that the state militiamen now encamped there are beginning to get some real training and that condi- tions as regards water, food, discipline and the spirit of the men is excellent.
 1t is believed in army circles that the militia will be kept on the Mexican border for six months at least and that the United States will have a mighty fine little army of about 150,00O splen- didly trained, thoroughly equipped and perfectly seasoned men by Jan. next.
 The District of Columbia brigade will not be sent to the field, because the, commands are composed largely of government employees, and their de- parture would deprive the government unnecessarily of much needed clerks. All members of the District of Colum- bia national guard will be discharged from the service if they so request.

SUBMARINE LINER FROM GERMANY HERE
Undersea Boat at Baltimore
 With Mail and Cargo.

Eludfng British and French cruisers which chased her for thirty hours, the German supersubmarine Deutschland dashed into the Virginia capes and steamed up Chesapeake bay to Balti- nore The big submarine. in size al- most like small ocean liner, travelled t,180 miles to reach the American port.
 The Deutschland was submerged for l.80O miles, being obliged to keep un- fer water, particularly while making ler way through the British blockade n the North sea- She cruised around off shore for days waiting for q chance 10 make port.
 The commander of the submarine is Captain Kairig of the German navy. He has personal letter from the kali ser for President Wilson. The subma- rine brought seven passengers, a large shipment of mall from Germany and a cargo of chemicals and dyestuffs for American manufacturers. The scarcity of dyes since the beginning of the war has handicapped the American textile trade. .-.
 The Deutschland was compelled to go 800 miles out of her course to escape capture by the. British and French cruisers that have been on the lookout for her. She was detected by the cruis- CTS when steaming along on the sur face about 600 miles from the capes. Thereafter she lodged back and forth and submerged when necessary until she was able to make dash into the capes. .-.".-
 The state department has one of the most serious diplomatic problems of the war presented to it by the arrival of the German submarine Deutschland. It must decide whether the vessel is to be recognized as warship and treated as such or as a merchant vessel with full privileges in neutral port.
 No such question ever has been pre- sented to another nation before. as this is the first time a submarine, poten- tially warship, has entered the terri torial waters of another nation on a peaceful mission.

Four Latin America Nations In Dis

 Grave fears for the peace of the na- tions involved were expressed.
 The boundary disputes involving the four countries have been of some long standing, and at one time or another some of them have approached settle ment. It had been reported that Colom- bia and Peru had approached an under standing of their difficulties and that an arbitration was in contemplation. An award in the dispute between Venezuela and Colombia was made by Spain in 1891.
 Not long ago Secretary Lansing pro- posed that all Latin-American re- publics should bind themselves by treaty with the United States to ar bitrate their boundary disputes. Noth- ing came of the suggestion.

BOUNDARY LINE DISPUTE.
New Hampshire and Vermont Appeal
 to Supreme Court.

New Hampshire and Vermont Appeal
 to Supreme Court.
 The west bank of the Connecticut river, established as the boundary line between the colonies of New Hamp- shire and New York by kings decree of 1764, should be recognized as the present line between New Hampshire and Vermont, in the opinion of the former state as set forth by Assistant Attorney General Joseph F. Matthews in brief for submission to the United States supreme court, which has be- fore 1t the famous boundary dispute in which Vermont seeks to extend it's limits to the middle of the Connecticut river.
 After settlers in eastern New York revolted and formed the state of Yer mont in HIT, the brief states, con- gress adopted the boundary as it had been established by the kings decree. This action, the brief adds, has never been repealed.
 New Hampshire asks the supreme court to enjoin Vermont from disput- ing the sovereignty of New Hampshire over territory east of the west bank of the Connecticut at high water mark.

NEW BLOCKADE RULES
 GIVE U. s. CONCERN
Administration Sees Further Struggle For NeutralS' Rights.

Publication of the new British orders in council, which discontinue the en- forcement of the declaration of Lon- don, has aroused concern of the admin istration at Washington and especially the state department.
 While .the new order ostensibly puts the blockade of Germany by the allies more in accord with international law. the doctrine of hostile destination of contraband goods on a neutral ship and the principle of continuous voyage are regarded as likely to cause much trou- ble.
 The new order declares it to be the intention of Great Britain and her all lies to exercise their belligerent rights at sea in strict accordance with the law of nations. On account of the changed conditions of commerce and the diversity of practice doubts might arise in certain matters as to the rules which the allies might regard as in conformity with the law of nations. and it is ordered that the following provisions be observed: .
 F'irst.-The hostile destination required TOT IHe COnu6ulHdllOH Ol COulIdUdHu cles shall be presumed to exist until the contrary is shown if the goods are con- signed to or for an enemy authority or agent of an enemy state or to or for a person who during, the present hostilities has forwarded contraband goods to an en- emy authority or agent of an enemy state or to or for person in territory belong ing to or occupied by the enemy or if the goods are consigned Ito order'' or if the ships papers do not show who is the real consignee of the goods. .... a Second.-The principle of continuous voy- age or ultimate destination shall be appli- cable both in cases of contraband and blockade. 'ea. Third.-A neutral vessel carrying contra band with papers indicating neutral des- tination which notwithstanding the desti- nation shown on the papers proceeds to an enemy port shall be liable to capture and condemnation if she is encountered before | the end of her next voyage. 2 Fourth.-A vessel carrying contraband shall be liable to capture and condemna- | tion if the contraband, reckoned either by value, weight, volume or freight, forms
 more than half the cargo. r-.
