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
behind a certain amount of incom-
bustible 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 mate
rial, which IL not completely eliminat-
ed from the system each day, becomes
food for the millions of bacteria which
infest the bowels. From this mass of
leftover waste, toxins and ptomaine-
like 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 wa
ter with teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it to wash out of the
thirty feet Of bowels the previous days
accumulation 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 stiff
ness, or have a sour, gassy stomach
after meals, are urged to get quarter
pound of limestone phosphate from
any druggist or storekeeper, and be.
gin practicing internal sanitation
This will cost very little, but is suffl-
cient to make anyone an enthusiast
on the subject.
Remember inside bathing is more
important than outside bathing, be-
cause the skin pores dc 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.

Hands up!"
Old Ezekiel Grow, butler, coachman,

gulp. Then his long scrawny fists
went up in the air.
Now then, blow the top Of his head

One of two highwaymen had abrupt

startle poor, faithful old Ezekiel half
out of his wits. The light face mask
he wore had suddenly come loose. Old
Ezekiel stared, sputtered, looked ap-
palled. Then the main malefactor ran
up the stairs.
He evidently had studied the lay of
the ground previous to this actual mo-
ment of the raid. Instantly he chose

of pretty tokens of feminine vanity
and daintiness upon the bureau guided
the intruder.
The latter pulled open the drawers
with true professional rapidity. He
tossed over their contents swiftly. At
last his hands closed about a richly
inlaid box. 1t was locked, but he drew
a chisel from his pocket and roughly
pried off the cover.
