The law was passed by the legisla-

taken at the election two years ago
the majority was against its continu-
ance. 1t was claimed later that many
who had meant to vote to keep the
law voted the other way through not
understanding clearly which was the
proper place to mark. This year
enough friends of the law signed petit
tions to place 1t again on the books.

phosphate on an empty stomach is
wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out
all the sour lamentations, gases and
acidity and gives one & splendid sp-

A quarter pound Of limestone phos-

cleanses, sweetens and freshens the
skin, so hot water and limestone phos-
phate act on the blood and internal
organs. Those who are subject TO con
