Look and Feel Clean, Sweet and
 Fresh Every Day
Drink a glass Of real hot water before breakfast to wash
 out poisons.

Life Is not merely to live, but to live we'll, eat we'll, digest we'll, work well, sleep well, look well. What a glorious condition to attain, and yet how very easy it is if one will only adopt the morning inside bath.
 Folks who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when they arise, split ting headache, stuffy from cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy by opening the sluices of the system each morning and flushing out the whole of the internal poisonous stag nant matter.
 Everyone, whether ailing. sick or well, should, each morning, before breakfast, drink a glass of real hot water with teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the previous days indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans. ing, sweetening and purifying the en- tire alimentary tract before putting moro food into the stomach. The ac- tion of hot water and limestone phos- phate on an empty stomach Is wonder fully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour lamentations, gases, waste and acidity and gives one a splendid ap- petite for breakfast While you are enjoying your breakfast the water and phosphate Is quietly extracting large volume of water from the blood and getting ready for a thorough flushing of all the inside organs.
 The millions of people who are both- cred with constipation, bilious spells. stomach trouble, rheumatism; others who have sallow skins, blood disor- ders and sickly complexions are urged to get a quarter pound of limestone phosphate from any store that handles drugs which will cost very little, but Is sufficient to make anyone a pro- nounced crank on the subject of in- ternal sanitation.-Adv.

 Just what a big thing for Arkan- sas the recent development of the newly-discovered oil and gas fields in Crawford and Sebastian counties is Is probably not realized by the average citizen of the state not familiar with the industry or a resident of that sec tion.

 The present production in the Kib Ter field in Crawford county. near Van Buren, Is nearly 50,000.000 feet daily, as follows: Clear Creek No. 1 15,00O0 900 feet; Grove Oil and Gas Company, 10,0O0,0O0 feet, and the Wild Cat Oil and Gas Company, 21.26700C feet Next to these big producers is the Massard Prairie field in Sebastian county, which has about 100 wells the largest of which produces 4,500, 900 feet daily.

The report of the evidence obtained by a special committee that investi- gated financial transactions of Peter Hanraty of McAlester, Okla. after he resigned as president of the United Mine Workers of Arkansas, Oklahoma and Texas, last October, following the bringing of charges against him, was read at the closing session of the biennial district convention.
 This is the first time the informa- ton against Hanraty has been made public and, although an effort was made to prevent the reading of the report on constitutional grounds, the delegates voted overwhelmingly fn favor. The report charged that Han raty spent S1,390,69 of the districts funds as salary and expenses for two men who he said were special organ izers and who the committee said in the report were not employed. Han raty declined to stand trial before the district board to answer to charges on the ground that he was unable to have his witnesses present at the date set for his trial A civil suit to re- cover the amount he is alleged 70 have mlsused is pending at McAles ter Hanraty has also filed an appeal with the international organization.
