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

Life is not merely to live, but to live well, eat well, digest we'll sleep well, look well. What a glorious condi- tion 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 a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid sto- mach, 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 stagnant matter.
 Everyone, whether ailing, sick or we'll should, eac'o morning, before breakfast, drink 4 glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in 1t to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the previous days indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach The action of hot water and limestone phosphate on an empty stomach is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour lamentations, gases, waste and acidity and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast. While you are enjoying your breakfast the water and phosphate is quietly ex- tracting 8 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 bothered with constipation, bilious spells, stomach trouble, rheumatism; others who have sallow skins, blood disorders and sickly complexions are urged to get quarter pound of lime stone phosphate from the drug store which vii cost very little, but is sufficient to make anyone pro- nounced crank on the subject O. internal sanitation.

HONOR OF NATION BEFORE . PEACE, SAYS PRESIDENT
Wilson Urges National Prep aredness Without Delay in Speech at New York Railway Banquet
 Outlook May Soon Change.

New York, Jan. 28.-President Will son last night opened his personal ap- peal to the country for national de- fense. He gave warning that plans for the readjustm ent of the army must be formulated and carried out with out delay and solemnly declared he could not predict that the outlook for the United States would be as bright to- morrow as today.
 Speaking at banquets of the Rail- way Business association and the Mo- tion Picture Board of Trade, he sound ed the keynote of addresses he will deliver during the next ten days in the middle west
 In Fighting Mood.
 MT. Wilson was in a fighting mood throughou his addresses. In a, speech delivered early in the day he declared he always accepted an invitation to fight. Last night he told the railroad men he wasa advocate of peace and had struggled to keep the United States at peace but that he considered the liberty and honor of the nation even more important than peace.
 Woe to any man who plays mar plot or who seeks to make party poli- tlcs Or personal am mbitiOn take prece- dence over candor, honor and unsel- fish, bipartisan service!' said the president in speaking of his defense plan before the railroad men. He de- clared that the country expects ac- tion, that this is a year of accounting and that the accounting must be def mite on the part of parties and on the part of every individual who wishes to enjoy the public confidence.

Crime Increases in South
Since Saloons Were Closed
Records Show Far Higher Record of Serious Crime in 1915
Than During Previous Year, and Many Attribute
Condition to Illicit Liquor Selling.

ever before. Every offender arrested
and punished becomes an enemy to Jaw
and order, and the number of such IN
creases daily, and the evil Is only ag-
graYated by the constant nagging OF
the authorities for failing to do what
is an impossibility. The present stu
alton in Tennessee is deplorable be-
cause it shows that intemperance has
been promoted by the irrational law
that has been forced upon an unwilling
people. The taxpayers are paying ire
mendous cost bills and the fee-grabber
Is growing fat. but the fostering evil
(crtme) remains in its worst form"
The Memphis Commercial Appeal. in
its issue of January 9, called for
mass meeting OF citizens to discuss
crime, and to formulate some plan,
which that newspaper did not outline
for reducing murder, at least The
article admits the growth of crime in
that community and charges 1t to Illicit
traffic in intoxicating beverages, fol-
lowing the enforcement of a prohibf-
tIon law which closed licensed saloons.
The prohibition State of Georgia is
having the same kind of experience and
trouble with crime. Atlanta and Macon
seem to have been the most turbulent
cities OF that State. The newspapers Of
those cities Issued on Christmas Day de-
clared that this was our most bloody

as result OF shooting. and about thirty

ARRAYS. The arrests in the city of At
lsnta on Christmas Eve broke all prevl-
Gus records. amounting to about 800. At
Macon, Ga. nineteen men were taken to
hospitals in one day suffering from gun
shot wounds. Three of them died of
their injuries on Christmas Day. The to-
tai arrests at Macon for the Christmas
period Appropriated 800. Their ofrenses
ranged all the way from plain drunks''
to premeditated murder.
Alabama and North Carolina, as shown
by local newspaper reports, and police
records. were not far behind Tennessee
and Georgia in the matter OF crime and
general disorder. Durham. n. c.. seems
to have been the most turbulent point in
that State. while Birmingham was the
storm center Of Alabama with Mobile a
good second So far as the records show
Montgomery. Ala, was the only Southern
city that held crime down to former rec
Ords during the year and throughout the
holiday week. Every other Southern city
that has made reports suffered from an
epidemic OF crime that law officers have
been unable to suppress.
Not less than a half dozen cities in the
South are planning for mass meetings to
discuss these conditions publicly. with
the hope that some plan may be evolved
that will improve them. No public jour-
nal that discusses the situation at all
tries to suppress the main fact, that
crime has increased amazingly in the
South during the past few years The
only difference between them Is as to

Lord George and Lord Curzon, IN the
cabinet, backed by Lord Northcliffe and
his powerful newspapers, the Times and
the Daily Mail, commenced the under
ground campaign in May last year, but
the public wrath which resulted in the
Northcliffe papers being burned all over
the country forced the plotters to lie low.
The explosion Of public opinion when IL
was falsely announced in November that
Kitchener had been ousted just after he
left for the East warned the politicians
that TX" was no less an idol than be-
fore. They found that they could not de-
stroy the public faith in the god they had
themselves created.
After the November incident, il did
not take lort3 for Asquith to exercise
his famous genius for compromise
which has time after time prevented
the political shipwreck of his party, IL
not of his country. He arranged the
scheme outlined above by which
kitchener's power should be shorn
away without affecting his position in
the eyes of the nation, and II has taken
long time for even army officers TO
realize just how complete the change
has been.
