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 well, digest we'll, work
well, sleep WELL look we'll. 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. anu flushing out the
whole of the internal poisonous stag
nant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
we'll, 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
cleansing, sweetening and purifying
the entire alimentary canal before
putting more food into the stomach.
The action of hot water and limestone
phosphate on all empty stomach is
wonderfully invigorating. 1t cleans
out all the sour lamentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one
splendid appetite for breakfast. While
you are enjoying your breakfast the
water and phosphate is quietly ex-
tracing large volume of water from
the blood and getting ready for
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 competitions are
urged to get quarter pound of lime
stone phosphate from the drug store
which will cost very little, but is suf-
hcient to make anyone a pronounced
crank on the subject of internal sani-

SPIRIT CALLS UPON
ALLPEOPLE TO COME
Rev. G. w. Snyder Urges
Everyone to Accept Invi-
tation of Christ.
GIVEN THROUGH CHURCH

Rev G. w. Snyder preached Sum
day at the Ludden Memorial
church on THE Most Pressing Invi-
tation" He took his text from the
last chapter in the Bible and the sew
enteenth verse: The Spirit and the
bride say, come. And let him that
heareth say, come. And let him that
is athirst come, and whatsoever will,
let him take the water OF life freely.
This verse sums up all the invi-
tations which Jesus gave during his
earthly sojourn." said Rev. Mr.. Sny-
der. Jesus spoke the words OF the
text through John, the writer OF the
book OF Revelation. And he delivers
in this verse the most pressing of in
vitations and delivers it in such a
forceful and comprehensive way that
no one can say that it does not in
clude him.
why are not all people believers?
Why are there thousands who are re-
sisting the invitation? Jesus, Him
sell, answered that question when he
said, 'Ye will not come People have
the power in them to resist the word
OF God, powerful though it is.
The Holy Spirit is always saying,
come. That wonderful spirit pervades
the true preaching of Gods word.
Gods word is the sword of the
Spirit. 1t is keen, cutting, convincing.
Only the perversity OF mems hearts
keeps them from accepting and be-
lieving.
The Spirit was peculiarly and pow
erfully in Peters words when he
preached his great sermon at Pente-
cost and 5000 were converted.
THE word bride as used in the
text means the church and certainly
the church is continually pressing
Gods invitation. That is the mission
of the church, its greatest, almost its
sole mission"
The people OF Ludden Memorial
Lutheran church are worshipping
temporarily in a chapel at Nineteenth
and CASTELAR, streets. They have
bought lot on Sixteenth near Arbor,
where they intend to erect a new
church next summer The church is
named in memory OF the late Rev. DR..
L. P. Ludden of Lincoln, who had
charge OF home mission work west

NJ. Ripley calls attention to the
fact that the president recommended
consideration by the Interstate Com
merce commission OF an increase in

The brotherhoods, he said, have made
it clear they will resist such legisla-
