The Kings Products Company has
struck its gait and got down to regu-
lar business. At present three shifts are
working, and this seven days in the
week This is made necessary by the
flood of vegetables pouring in. The big
basement contains tons and tons of cab
bage and celery, and the latter is COM
ing in so rapidly that all hands and
the boss are at work on it to the tenn
porary exclusion of everything else. At
one time there was half an acre south
and west of the building piled high with
big punches of celery in addition to
having the big basement stored full of
it. This has been steadily worked down
until the area outside the building de-
voted to the celery crop is only about
the size of an average town lot.
Up to date no shipments have been
made, and it will probably be some

Thousands upon thousands of women

health to the kidneys, proved to be
Just the remedy needed to overcome
such conditions.

Look and Feel
Clean, Sweet and
Fresh Every Day
80 srSA
Drink a glass Of real hot water
before breakfast to wash
out poIsons.

Life is not merely to live, but to
live well, eat well, digest well, work
well, sleep well, look well. 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 a cold, foul
tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach,
can, instead, feel as fresh as o daisy
by opening the sluices of the SYSTEM
each morning and flushing out the
whole of the internal poisonous stag
nant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
well, should, each lmorning, before
breakfast, drink 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 cleans
ing, sweetening and purifying the en-
tire alimentary canal before putting
more food into the stomach. The ac-
tion of hot water and limestone phos
Iphate on an empty stomach is wonder
fully invigorating. 1t cleans out ali the
sour fermentations, gases, waste and
acidity and gives one a splendid ap-
petite for breakfast. While you are en-
joying your breakfast the water and
phosphate is quietly extracting large
volume of water from the blood and
getting ready for thorough flushing
of all the inside organs.
The millions of people who are both
cred with constipation, bilious spells,
stomach trouble, rheumatism; others
who have sallow skins, blood disor-
ders and sickly compilations are urged
to get quarter pound of limestone
phosphate FROM the drug store which
will cost very little, but is sufficient
to make anyone a pronounced crank
on the subject Of internal sanitation.

SENATOR NEWLANDS DIES SUDDENLY OF
 AFFECTION OF HEART
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, Dec. 24-Senator Francis Griffith Newlands of Nevada died of heart failure at his home here tonight after an illness of a few hours He was stricken while at work in his office at the senate office building dur ing the afternoon but was able to go home and the capital knew nothing of his Illness until the announcement of his death.
 No one realized the seriousness of the senator's condition and physician was not called until late this evening. Then the heart attacks had become acute The end came suddenly at 10:15 o'clock as Mrs. Newlands and her brother watched at the bedside. For several weeks Senator Newlands, working utmost gift Fanu yay on his preparations for an investigation of wartime transportation problems, had been in a weakened state of health. He kept at his desk, however and in spite of his 69 years, appeared alert and active.
 The senator Was a native of Mississ- ippi. He was born near Natchez Aug ust 2S, 1S4S, and lived in the state until he went to Yale in 1867 After nearly two years at Yale he entered the Co., lumbian College law school here and graduated, being admitted to the Dis trict of Columbia bar before he re- ceived his diploma.
 From Washington he went to San Francisco where he practiced law until | 1888. He then became citizen of Ne vada and was elected to the ty-third | fifty fourth, fifty fifth, fifty sixth and | fifty seventh congresses. | During his ten years as a member o1 | the house he served on various impor- | tant committees.
 e Succeeding Senator John P. Jones republican, in the senate on March 4 1903, Senator Newlands soon became an active member of that body and when the democrats gained control was made head of the interstate commerce commission. In 1908 he submitted hi. candidacy for reelection to the popu- lar vote and was returned by a large majority.
 As chairman of the joint congress sional committee on transportation problems as well as of the interstate commerce commission the senator ha. been prominently identified with con sideration of what the government i to do about the railroads during tn, war.
 He has conferred with the presiden several times and at the presidents re quest deferred hearings the interstat commerce committee was preparing t start until after the Christmas holi days, when the president is expected t
