Not a Bite Of
Breakfast Until
You Drink Water.
Says q glass Of hot water and
phosphate prevents illness
and keeps 10 TT.

Just coal, when it burns, leaves
behind a certain amount of incom-
.bustible material in the form Of
ashes, so the food and drink taken
day after day leaves in the alimen-
tary canal q certain amount Of in
digestible material, which if not
completely eliminated from the sys-
tenn each day, becomes food for the
millions of bacteria which infest the
bowels. From this mass of leftover
waste, toxins and ptomain-ike pol
sons are formed and sucked into the
blood. ... .. :.
Men and women who can't get
feeling right must begin to take in
side baths. Before eating breakfast
each morning drink glass of real
hot water with a teaspoonful Of lime
stone phosphate in it to wash out OF
the thirty feet Of bowels the previous
days accumulation OF poisons anr
toxins and to keep the entire alimen-
tary canal clean, pure and fresh.
Those who are subject to SICK
headache, colds, biliousness, consti.
patton, others who wake up with bad
taste, I0ul DreaCn, packacne, fheo-
matte stiffness, or have sour, gassy
stomach after meals, are urged to
get a quarter pound Of limestone
phosphate from the drug store, and
begin practicing internal sanitation.
This will cost very little, but is sufii-
cient to make anyone an enthusiast
on the subject.
Remember inside bathing is more
important than outside bathing, be-
cause the skin pores do not absorb
impurities into the blood, causing
poor health, while the bowel pores
do. Just as soap and hot water
cleanses, sweetens and freshens the
skin, so hot water and limestone
phosphate act on the stomach, liver,
kidneys and boWels.-Adv.

THE COMING REVOLUTION.
A Strong Argument for Establishing
Small Industries.

Due West, s. C., Dec. IL.
To the Editor of The Greenville
News:
Your splendid editorial on "Com-
mercial Revolution Coming" was but
the sounding Of the key note Of a
bright era in our future history. Our
Southland is already indebted to you
for the force with which your pen has
been welded for it and the obliga-
ton is still more enduring since the
editorial referred to has been carried
to the homes of the deserving. What
we need are diversified Industries
industries that will be profitable to q
community at large and that can be
handled with small capital. If our
people can not manipulate cotton
factory or an iron furnace let them
try something less ponderous. Small
r enterprises will improve our con-
dition quite as much as and in less
time than those enormous mills.
It seems to the writer that canning
factories could be operated with ease
and profit by Carolinians in almost
any section in the State. Green veg
etables and fruits and fruits find
ready sale in both foreign and domes-
tic markets and at any season. Such
enterprises would make the wilder
ness and solitary place to be glad and
the desert to rejoice and blossom as
the rose" A crop of sweet peas
could be grown and taken off the
gound in time to produce crop ci
corn. A crop of corn could be
worked in time to plant and i'm
prove the land with clay peas. Toma-
toes could be forced and gathered
early enough to plant something
else. Then, too, the cash for green
crops would be realized at a season
when our people need it most. 1t
would do away with the necessity
of buying goods on long time and at
high prices. The enterprise would
give profitable employment to wo-
men and children and thereby con-
vert consumers into producers. Our
delicious fruit could be canned or
preserved or made into salable jelly.
hope this subject will be agitated
and receive the attention it deserves.
Give your readers a hearing and at
the same time let them hear you.
