Jump from Bed
 in Morning and
 Drink Hot Water Tells why everyone should drink hot water each morning
 before breakfast.

Why is man and woman, half the time, feeling nervous, Respondent, worried; some days headachy, dull and unstrung; some days really incapaci tated by illness.
 If we all would practice inside bathing, what a gratifying change would take place. Instead of thou sands of half-sick. anaemic-looking souls with pasty, muddy complexions we should see crowds of happy, healthy, rosy-cheeked people every where. The reason is that the human system does not rid itself each day of all the waste which it accumulates un- der our present mode of living. For every ounce of food and drink taken into the system nearly an ounce of waste material must be carried out else it ferments and forms ptomaine- like poisons which are absorbed into the blood.
 Just as necessary as it is to clean the ashes from the furnace each day before the fire will burn bright and hot, so we must each morning clear the inside organs of the previous days accumulation of indigestible waste and body toxins. Men and women. whether sick or well, are ad- vised to drink each morning, before breakfast, a glass of real hot water phate in it, as a harmless means of washing out of the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the indigestible material, waste, sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and puri- flying the entire alimentary canal be- fore putting more food into the ston- ech.
 Millions of people who had their turn at constipation, bilious attacks, acid stomach, nervous days and sleep less nights have become real cranks about the morning inside bath. A quarter pound of limestone phosphate will not cost much at the drug store, but is suff1cientyto demonstrate to any, one it's cleansing. sweetening and 6reshefiins effect upon the system.

REASONS FOR GROWING OLD.
Men of Research Have Been Unable
to Agree as to Why the Human
Frame Debititates.

To the question. "Why do we grow
oldT" many answers have been given.
Meischnikoff suggested that we are
poisoned by the absorption of the pro-
ducts of bacterial activity in the large
intestine, for this brings about hard
ening of the walls of the arteries and
also cOrrupts our bOdyguard of
wandering amoeboid cells so that they
become traitors, turning upon the
cells of the central nervous system.
Others have suggested other modes
of administration. To some it has
seemed enough to refer to wear and
tear of hard-worker organs like brain
and heart, liver and kidneys, for
chain is no stronger than its weak
est link. Others have referred to the
waning activity of the all-important
organs of internal secretion, and
others to the important fact that there
is no multiplication or replacement of
the cells of our central nervous sys-
tenn after very early date in our life.
It may be pointed out, however, that
most, if not all. of the theories break
down because they do not admit OF
all-round application. IhuS II Is
plain that many animals that are not
troubled with a large intestine never
theless grow old. Furthermore, the
theories seize on symptoms rather
than on causes for while it is good
sense to refer to wear and tear, the
question arises why all animals do not
exhibit the perfect recuperadon TO
which some at least have attained.
Prof. Child, of Chicago, has been
working for Is years or more with
simple creatures called Planarian
worms. One of the features OF their
life which he brought to light Is thelr
capacity for periodically becoming
young again. Thus it often happens
that a Planarian separates on the
posterior third or quarter OF its oody'
which speedily grows into whole'
while the diminished original heais
itself and grows a new tail. When
a Planarian is starved 1t can commune
living on its own resources tor sew
eral months. It's cells become slDdiIer
and they also become fewer, put IRE
is not surrendered. Such facts hare ied
Prof. Child to a survey Of the amman
kingdom, the result of which Is 10
show that there is much wider oc-
currence of rejuvenescence than mas
been hitherto realized. 1t occurs
especially in connection with Fege-
tative MULTIPLICATION. but there are
other occasions in which the creature
becomes younger in whole or In part
by lying low for a season. Perhaps
this may be part of the value OF pro
cesses of dying back and reaFrange-
ment which occur in winter in some
AAANsls and in many plants.
