Drink a glass Of real hot water

iIte is NOT merely to live. but to live
We'll. eat well. digest well. work we'll.
sleep we'll, look we'll. What a glorious
condition to attain. and get how very
easy it is il one will only adopt the
morning inside bath.
rOlks who are accustomed to feel
dull and heavy when they arise, split

can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy
by opening the slutces OF the system
each morning and flushing out the

breakfast. drink a glass of real hot
water with a teaspoontul OF limestone

Viods days indiGestible waste, sour hle
and poisonous toxins; thus cleansing,
sWeetening and purifying the entire all

food into the stomach. The action OF
hot water and limestone phosphate on
an empty stomach Is wonderfully in
VigoTatng. II 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 phos-
phate is quietly extracting large vol

ting ready for thorough flushing OF
all the inside organs.
The millions OF people who are both

stomach trouble, rheumatism; others
who have sallow skins. blood disorders
and sickly complexions are urged TO
get a Quarter pound OF limestone phos-
phate from the drug store, which will
cost very little. but is sufficient TO
make any one a pronounced crank on
