DRINK HOT WAITER
 IF YOU DESIRE A ROSY COMPLEX
Says we can't help but look
 better and feel better , after an inside bath.

To look ones best and feel ones
 best is to enjoy an inside bath each morning to flush from the system the previous days waste, sour fermenta- tlons and poisonous toxins before it is absorbed into the blood. Just as coal, when it burns, leaves behind cer-
 tain amount of incombustible material
 in the form of ashes, su the food and drlnk taken each day leave in the ali mentary organs certain amount of
 lndlgestible material, which if no5 eliminated, form toxins and poisons which are then sucked into the blood through the very ducts which are in- tended to suck in only nourishment to sustain the body.
 If you want to see the glow of healthy bloom in your cheeks, to see your skin get clearer and clearer, you are told to drink every morning upon arising a glass of hot water with a teasponful of limestone phosphate in it, which is a harmless means of wash ings the waste material and toxins from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, thus cleansing, sWeetening and purifying the entire alimentary tract, before putting more food into the stomach
 Men and women with sallow skins, liver spots, pimples or pallid com plexion, also those who wake up with a coated tongue, bad taste, nasty
 breath, others who are bothered with headaches, bilious spells, acid stomach or constipation should begin this phos- phated hot water drinking and are assured fVerV pronounced results in one rtwo weeks. A quarter pound of limestone pho5- phate costs very little at the drug store but is sufficient to demonstrate that just as soap and hot water cleanses, purifies and freshens the skin on the out side, so hot water and lime stone phosphate act on the inside or gans. We must always consider that internal sanitation is vastly more inn portant than outside cleanliness, be- cause the skin pores do not absorb i'm purities into the blood, while the bowel pores do.-Adv.
