Start Tomorrow
and Keep It Up
Every Morning
Get In the habit of drinking \
glass Of hot water before
breakfast.

We're not here long, so let's make
our stay agreeable. Let us live well,
cat well, digest well, work well. sleep
W ell, and look well. What a glorious
oonvitiou to attain, and yet. how very
easy it is ii one will only adopt the
MORNING inside bath.
Folks who are accustomed to feel
duh and heavy when they arise. split
ting headaches, stuify from a cold,
touI tongue, nasty breath, acid stom-
ach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a
daisy Y opening the sluices of the sys-
ten each morning and flushing out the
whole of the internal poisonous stag
nant matter.
Every one whether ailing, sick or
well, should. each morning, before
breakfast, drink a glass of real hot
water with teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it to wash from the
stor.ach, liver and bowels the previous
days indigestible waste, sour bile and
poisonous toxins; thus cleansing,
sweetening and purifying the entire
a!imentary canal before putting more
food into the stomach. The action of
hot water and limestone phosphate on
an empty stomach is wonderfully in
MIGRATING. 1t 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 a large vol
ume of water from the blood and get
ting ready for a thorough flushing of
all the inside organs.
The millions of people who are
bothered with constipation. bilious
spells. stomach trouble; others who
have sallow skins, blood disorders and
siclly, compilations are urged to get a
quarter pound of limestone phosphate
from the drug store. This Will cost
very little, but is sufficient to make

WOMAN PLEADS Their CAUSE
"NOt Worse Than Other WOm-

'What Shall Be Done With
Magdalenes?"

San Francisco, Jan. 26.-The ques-
ton, old as the world itself-''What
shall be for the Magdalenes ?''-today
faced the Rev. Paul Smith, leader OF
the crusade to close San F'rancisco's
"tenderloin,' as the result of the most
remarkable demonstration of it's kind
in the city's history.
Three hundred women of the under
world, clad in their tawdry finery,
marched in a body to the Rev. Mr..
Smiths church and presented to the
pastor plea for a chance. In an adj
dress of remarkable eloquence, Mrs.
r. NJ Gamble, leader of the women,
set forth their views. Chief RESPONSE
bility for existence of women Of the
underworld, she declared. was the
starvation wage offered to girls by
business houses, which forced them
into a life of shame.
I'VE find it impossible to exist on
wages of Sc to 81 a week-the wage
paid women in this city" she said.
Most of these girls are daughters of
poor families, nearly oVery one is 4
mother or has some one dependent on
her. There is no more badness in
them than in any other women They
are driven into this life wholly by
economic conditions.
lone of our girls went to a minister
for help and he told her to trust in
God. How can you trust in God when
shoes are SO a pair and wages Sc Il
week?''
Mrs. Gamble appealed passionateiy
for a saner view Of the Magdalene'5
life by ministers ard reformers. She
declared she asked not only that the
present woman of the underworld be
saved. but that the young girls who
are coming into the life every day be
spared its horrors. The speaker criti-
cised ministers who want to drive us
women out of the city,
HAS your city and your church a
different God when you drive evil
away from your city and your church
to other cities and other churches?"
she cried.
why don't you attack conditions.
not persons. and educate the growing
young to a proper respect for them
selves and for womanhood ?"
The Rev. Mr.. Smith promised his
aid to all the women who would leave
the life on the "Barbary coast, and
other tenderloin places" but added:
