Marrying by photograph is the usual method of procedue among the Japa- nese of this country. They send photograph of themselves to friend in Japan who finds them bride, and her picture is then sent to this coun- try. The necessary passage money IS forwarded to Japan and the couple meet at the dock where the marriage takes place. Over one thousand pie ture brides come into this country ev- cry year, as many as twenty or thirty frequently being on one ship. This fact is very conclusively told in "The Honorable Friend" Paramount Pic |ture produced by Lasky in which man, lot the characters portrayed are Japa- 'nese.

To feel your best day in and day out, to feel clean inside; no sour bile to coat your tongue and sicken your breath or dull your head; no consti- patton, bilious attacks, sick headache, Icolds, rheumatism or gassy, acid stomach, you must bathe on the inside like you bathe outside. This is vastly more important, because the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, while the bowel pores do, says we'll known physician.
 To keep these poisons and toxins we'll flushed from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, drink before breakfast each day, glass of hot water with teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in ity- This will cleanse, purify and freshen the entire alimen- tary tract, before putting more food into the stomach.
 Get a quarter pound of limestone phosphate from your pharmacist. It lis inexpensive and almost fasteless, except a sourish twinge which is not. unpleasant. Drink phosphated hot water every morning to rid your sys- tenn of these vile poisons and toxins; also to present their formation.
 To feel like young. folks feel; like you felt before your blood, nerves and muscles became saturated with an &C., emulation of body poisons, begin this treatment and above all, keep it up! As soap and hot water act on the skin, cleansing, sweetening and purifying, so limestone phosphate and hot water before breakfast, act on the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels.
