Glass of Hot Water
Before Breakfast
a Splendid Habit
Open sluices Of the system each
morning and wash away the
poisonous, stagnant matter.

Those of us who are accustomed to
feel dull and heavy when we arise;
splitting headache, stuffy from cold,
foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stom-
ach, lame back, can. instead, both
look and feel as fresh as daisy always
by washing the poisons and toxins
from the body with phosphated hot
water each morning.
We should drink, before breakfast,
glass of real hot water with tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in
it to flush from the stomach, liver,
kidneys and ten yards OF bowels the
previous days indigestible waste, sour
bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans
ing, sweetening and purifying the en-
tire alimentary canal before putting
more food into the stomach
The action Of limestone phosphate
and hot water, on an empty stomach
is wonderfully inv1gorating. 1t cleans
out all the sour lamentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one a
splendid appetite for breakfast and it
is said to be but little while until
the roses begin to appear In the
cheeks. A quarter pound of lime
stone phosphate will cost very little at
your druggist or from the store, but
is sufficient to make anyone who is
bothered with biliousness, constipa-
ton, stomach trouble or rheumatism
a real enthusiast on the subject of in
ternal sanitation. Try it and you are
assured that you will look better and
feel better in every way shortly

OVEN MUST BE JUST RIGHT
Faults of Cookery That Have to Be
Remedied by the Most Care
full Attention.

This would be a fine cake if only
my oven had been just right" How
often have you heard a friend make
that remark and agreed with her too,
but did either Of you know what that
lust right" meant?
Uniformity of heat is a most i'm
portant feature in successful baking.
It requires skill to obtain just the
right heat Not so very long ago a
great bread bakery found it neces
sary to let some of the great ovens
cool Off After the fires were rebuilt
it was about week before they could
be sure of the uniformity Of the bread
baked in those ovens. This merely
demonstrates to the housewife the
necessity for giving time and atten-
ton to her oven when she intends to
bake.
When the cake comes out of the
oven cracked it has been subjected
to too great a heat at first. The cake
baked so quickly at first that the gases
did not have a chance to escape, and
finally when formed in enough vol
ume, they broke through the top, leav-
ing a great crack. When the oven
is unevenly heated the cake either
rises up in the middle or ON either
side, making it impossible to make
an even layer or to frost loaf
cake to advantage. When the cake
falls" it is because the oven has been
too suddenly cooled or the cake Jared.

HOUSEHOLD WISDOM

Hard-boiled eggs chopped fine and
seasoning will make a delicious sand
wich.
1t is good idea to save, if possible,
a definite sum for furniture replace
ments. This applies especially to the
keeper of new house.
New blankets should be shaken and
soaked in cold water overnight to
take out the sulphur dressing and
make them more easily washed.
Whenever possible save the green
leaves of a head of lettuce for egg
salad, while the hearts are kept for
the tomato, fruit and other salads.
weak solution of turpentine poured
down the water pipes once week will
drive the water bugs away.
Shabby oak should be brushed over
with warm beer and when thoroughly
dry polished with beeswax and tur-
pentine.
Furs that have become fat and oily
looking about the neck may be made
fresh and like new by rubbing the fur
the wrong way with hot iron. Furs
that have been wet should never be
hung in front of the stove or an open
fire to dry.
For mud stains on dresses dissolve
a little carbonate of soda in water and
with it wash the mud stains. Another
plan is to rub the stains with a cut
raw potato, afterward removing the
potato juice by rubbing it with fan
mel dipped in water.
In cold weather put the clothespins
in pan and set in the oven until they
are hot. Then the fingers will not
suffer when hanging out the clothes,
especially if the clothes are rinsed out
the last time in warm water.
To clean bamboo furniture use a
brush dipped in warm water and salt.
The salt prevents the bamboo from
turning color.
To clean lamp burners wash them
in wood ashes and water and they will
come out clean and bright.
If lemons are warmed before they
are squeezed nearly double the guam
THY of juice will be obtained.
If you want to save gas, remember
that sheet of tin placed over the
smallest gas jet will heat two f1atirons
as quickly as if two jets were used.
Muslin and cotton goods can be rem
dered freproof by putting an ounce
of alum in the last rinsing water, or
by putting it in the starch.
A mousehole can be effectually
stopped for all time by pasting over it
a piece of cloth which has been liber-
ally sprinkled with red pepper.

PROSPERITY IN
WESTERN CANADA
900 Million Dollars in New Wealth
Added in 1915.

Canada as whole has enjoyed won.
derful prosperity in 1915, from the
products of the farm, the orchard and
the centres of industry. No country
wrote a brighter page of history In
agricultural and industrial develop
ment during 1915 than Canada. Nearly
q billion bushels Of grain produced.
Taxes in Western Canada average $24
and will not exceed $35 per quarter
section, which includes all taxes. No
taxes on improvements.
When Western Canada was faced
with her enormous harvest last fall
the military authorities decided that
soldiers In Canada could give the En-.
pire no better service for the time
crops. For that reason leave Of alb
sence was given to soldiers who
wished to work in the harvest fields,
and their labor was an important fac
tor in harvesting the big crops success
fully.
The necessity for increasing the ag.
ricultural production is commanding
even more attention in 1916, and 1t Is
now announced that soldiers in Can
ada may obtain leave of absence from
their military duties in the spring for
a certain length Of time to enable
them to plant the seed for the crops
in every Province Of the Dominion.
The fact that the Government rec.
ognizes the seeding and harvesting OF
Canada's crops as being OF the first
importance is perhaps the best evil
dence that CONSUMPTION or any In
crease of taxes which would reduce
the agricultural activity of Canada
will never be considered by the author
tiles.
Owing to the number who have en-:
listed for overseas service it has been
found necessary to secure farm labor
in the United States. It Is hoped that
fifty thousand can be secured.-Adver'

HOW TO CURE ECZEMA, ITCH
AND ALL SKIN DISEASES

Don't suffer any longer with eczema
or any other skin trouble. Just apply
Hancock's Sulphur Compound to the
parts affected and it will stop the Itch
ing at once and cure the trouble per-
manently. Many sufferers from skin
troubles have written us that the Sui
phur Compound cured them after
everything else failed. Mrs. Evelyn
Garst, of Salem, Va, writes: Three
years ago I had a rough place on my
cheek. 1t would burn and itch. I was
fearful it might be of cancerous ma
ture. I used different preparations,
but nothing helped it. One bottle OF
Hancocks Sulphur Compound cured
me completely" To beautify the COM
plexion, remove blackheads and
pimples use Hancock's Sulphur ONT
ment. For sale by all dealers.-Adv.

To Wash Willow Furniture.

To clean willow furniture, provide
yourself with a coarse brush dipped
in strong salt and water, scrub each
piece well, then dry with soft brush.
Salt cleans willow and also keeps it
from turning yellow. If it is desired
to keep the natural light color of the
willow, apply a coat of linseed oil.
BY this treatment the willow strands
Of which the piece is woven will lose
their dry brittleness and become soft
er and more pliable, bending under a
blow instead Of breaking This treat
ment has another good effect besides
making the chair last longer-it makes
it less noisy. A coat of oil allows the
strands to slip more smoothly and cas-
lily, and therefore more quietly upon
each other.
