Hot Water for
Sick Headaches
Tells why everyone should drink
hot water with phosphate
In It before breakfast.

Headache OF any kind Is caused by
soning. Liver and bowel poisons called
toxins, sucked into the blood through the
lymph ducts. excite the heart which
pumps the blood so fast that it congests
in the smaller arteries and veins Of the
head producing violent, throbbing pain
and distress, called headache. You be-
come nervous. Respondent, sick, feverish
and miserable, and your meals sour and
almost nauseate you. Then you resort to
acetanilide, aspirin or the bromides which
temporarily relieve but do not rid the
blood of these irritating toxins
A glass Of hot water with a teaspoonful
of limestone phosphate in 1t, drunk before
breakfast for a while, will not only wash
these poisons from your system and cure
you Of headache, but will cleanse, purify
and freshen the entire alimentary canal
Ask your pharmacist for a quarter
pound Of limestone phosphate. It Is in
expensive, harmless as sugar, and almost
tasteless, except for a sourish twinge
which is not unpleasant.
If you aren't feeling your best, If
tongue Is coated or you wake up with
bad taste, foul breath or have colds, in
digestion. biiioueness, constipation or
sour, acid stomach, begin the phosphated
hot water cure to rid your system Of tox-
ms and poisons.
Results are quick and Il is claimed that
those who continue to flush out the stom-
ach. liver, and bowels every mornin
neve: have any headache or know q mis-
erable moment-Ady.
