inside bath.

To look ones best and feel ones best
is to enjoy an inside bath each morn

Gus days waste, sour lamentations and
poisonous toxins before it is absorbed
into the blood. Just as coal, when Ii
burns, leaves behind certain amount
of incombustible material in the form
of ashes, so the food and drink taken
each day leave in the alimentary or
gans a certain amount of indigestible
material, which if not eliminated, form
toxins and poisons which are then
sucked into the blood through the very
ducts which are intended to suck in
only nourishment to sustain the body.
If YOU want to see the glow of
healthy bloom in your cheeks, to see
your skin get clearer and clearer, you
are told to drink every morning upon
arising, glass of hot water with a
teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in
it. which is a harmless means of wash
ing the waste material and toxins
from the stomach, liver. kidneys and
bowels, thus cleansing, sweetening and
purifying the entire alimentary tract,
before putting more food into the stom-

A quarter pound of limestone phos-

that just as soap and hot water
