Get the Habit of
Drinking Hot Water
Before Breakfast

with the system full
Of poisons.

Millions of folks battle internally
with drugs. What's an inside BATH"
you say. Well, it is 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 a teaspoonful of lime
stone phosphate in it. This is very
excellent health measure. 1t 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 every
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 at
tacks, foul breath, bad taste, colds,
stomach trouble, kidney misery, sleep
lessness, impure 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 OBJ
tain quarter pound Of limestone
phosphate from any druggist or store
keeper. This will cost very little but
is sufficient to make anyone a real
crank on the subject Of internal sani-
tation.
Just as soap and hot water act on
the skin, cleansing, sweetening and
freshening, so limestone phosphate
and hot water act on the stomach
liver, kidneys and bowels. 1t is vast
ly more important to battle on the in
side than on the outside, because the
skin pores do not absorb impurities in
to the blood, while the bowel pores do.

PRETTY LINEN CASES
SIMPLE OF CONSTRUCTION AND
BY NO MEANS EXPENSIVE.
One of Their Chief Recommendation
Is That the Decoration May Be
Made a Matter of Individual
Choice.

The new skirt hangers are as pretty
as they are attractive, and bought
made up ready for decorating, cost IS
cents pair. This is a small price,
it is true, but when one needs half
dozen pairs the cost mounts. So the
hangers are very simple in construc-
ton; any girl may make them and
save money by doing so.
For each pair two medium-sized
safety pins, two small ivory rings and
nine inches of ribbon a little wider
than the length of the safety pins are
required. The ribbon is cut into two
equal lengths. One end is stitched
around the bar of the pin, the other
to the ring. The ribbon can be dec

that come made up are stamped for
embroidery. But one could work an
initial, decorate with stencil work or
apply floral motif. as she pleased
One and one-half yards of ribbon at
20 cents yard will make six pairs of
hangers-30 cents. One dozen safety
pins, five cents, and one dozen rings
the same price. Materials for decora-
ton will probably be another ten
cents, making the total cost SO cents.
AS fairly firm linen or crash lends
itself well for the purpose. stencling
is fitting decoration. To make a
napkin case, take two pieces of linen
26 inches long, and about eight wide.
Bind all edges with white linen tape.
Then arrange the strips to form

Kidney, Bladder and Uric Acid trou-
bles bring misery to many. When
the kidneys are weak or diseased,
these natural filters do not cleanse
the blood sufficiently, and the poisons
are carried to all parts Of the body.
There follow depression, aches and
pains, heaviness. drowsiness. irrita-
bility, headaches, chilliness and rheu-
matism. In some people there are sharp
pains in the back and loins, distressing
bladder disorders and sometimes obsti-
hate dropsy. The uric acid sometimes
forms into gravel or kidney stones.
When the uric acid affects the muscles
and joints it causes lumbago, rheuma-
tism, govt or sciatica. This is the time
