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

We're not here long, so let's make
our stay agreeable. Let us live well,
eat well, digest well, work well, sleep
well, and look we'll. 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 a 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 morning, before
breakfast, drink a glass of real hot
water with teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it to wash from the
stomach, liver and bowels the pre-
vious 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-
ton of hot water and limestone phos-
phate on an empty stomach is won
derfully invigorating. 1t cleans out
all the sour fermentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one a
splendid appetite for breakfast. While
you are enjoying your breakfast the
water and phosphate is quietly ex-
tracing a large volume of water from
the blood and getting 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
sickly complexions are urged to get a
quarter pound of limestone phosphate
very little, but is sufficient to make
anyone a pronounced crank on the
subject of inside-bathing before
breakfast.

employees GET
RECOGNITION
Important Decisions Given by
the State Compensation
Board Lately

The State Compensation Board in
Mackey in the claim of Steinhart VS..
Vert, Shamokin, holds that an en-
ployer must pay expenses of medical
treatment as we'll as the compensa-
tion and expenses allowed for a death.
In this case the employe died twenty
days after his injury and the chairman
says: 1T is perfectly apparent that
the Legislature intended in just such
a case as the one under considera-
ton that the employer should not
only furnish reasonable medical serv-
ice during the first fourteen days of
sickness will. the limitation as to cost.
but also if after that period death fol-
lowed as a result of that injury, then
there should be paid to dependents or
if no dependents, to the personal rep
resentatives of the. deceased. the cost
of the last sickness and burial to the
extent of 500 without deduction of
the first named amount"
In the case of Miller VS.. Dietrich
Construction Co., Allentown, a new
hearing is ordered because the claim
ant had originally filed against the
wrong person, who was assumed to
be the employer. The Board has al
lowed a new hearing in the case OF
F'ranzek; VS.. Forty Fort Coal Co., OF
Swoyersville, in which counsel for the
claimant had petitioned to stay the
running of the time for appeal be-
cause of after discovered evidence
The Board Lolds that the new hear
ing will give opportunity to present
evidence that will clearly define the
issue.

Tor the ompany she expected for
dinner. Carp and Frances We're
coming up to take dinner with them,
the first time that Helen had seen
Frances since her quiet marriage over
six weeks ago.
Helen had gone to a great deal of
trouble to arrange an elaborate meal,
in spite of Warren's advice not to
make it formal. She had thought it
would be nice to make a gala time of
1t, and the light of dinner party
to have things unusually festive. So
there were place cards and favors
and flowers everywhere. Just after
lunch Frances had telephoned to say
that a niece of Carp's had arrived

"Of course you will bring her

do"
Don't you do anything of the
kind" Frances protested. IT'S good
of you to let me bring her at all.
She's an awful baby, Helena typi-
cal boarding school girl. They live
West, and her mother wrote to
Carp and asked him to take care of
her for a day or SO while she shops
for some clothes. She is fearfully
up-to- date"
Helen had laughed as she hung
up the receiver and had spent the
rest of the afternoon cudgeling her
brains and trying to think up some
one to ask in to dinner. The only
real young man she knew was DR..
Marshall, but he was out of town.
She called up Warren at the office,
but he could give her no help.
Finally she located Mrs. Stevens

on his age could not ruffle his
spirits. What did you say the

CHAPTER xxx

Callers for John Doc
Tremendous sensation! The office
of William Lane. Engineering Archi-
tect, sprang flamingly into the pub
lie print. 1t had captured the Pitts
man prize for the most notable struc-
tural iron engineering feat of the
year: and, on a crisp winter morn
ing, large. noble portraits of William
Lane appeared at every breakfast
plate! Alongside was a picture of the
wonderful dome over the Arts and
Sciences building. 1t was a triumph,
but the unexpected honor brought
small joy to Billy Lane. The mar
velous floating dome was Halls crea-
ton, and now Harrison Stuart would
not take the credit for it. This was
merely because Halls year of proba-
ton still lacked a month of it's COM

called up to congratulate them. This
was Billy's first chance to vociferously
declare himself an impostor.
At the office the controversy broke
out afresh. The Pittsman jury of
awards had mailed the check, and the
medal, and the engrossed honor parch-
ment, at the same time it had given
out the information to the newspa-
perS; and now here was the money,
a hundred thousand dollars, endorsed
in the name of William Lane William
Lane promptly endorsed that check
to John Doe, and carried it in to Hal
and thrust it in his hand.
iii keep the honor for a month to
accommodate you, but I'll be jiggered
| If I'll keep the money!" he declared

announced Hal. Now don't be fool

slammed the check on the drawins

despised and useless.
There seemed no way out of thai
deadlock. and the difficulty existed
until Tommy Tinkle, who dropped in

"If you don't want the money, give
1t away" he advised them, his whim,

They nearly shook the arms of

posal of their dilemma; and, the next
night following, the blue box and pink
box being ready. they all three went
up to the enchanted apartments, and
Tommy Tinkle made a presentation

will, and the quintette held a celebra-
ton.

BETTER Than CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets are
a Harmless Substitute

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets--the SUBJ
stitute for calomel-are mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. They are the re-
suit of DR.. Edwards determination not
to treat liver and bowel complaints with
calomel. His efforts to Danish it brought
out these little olive-colored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the
good that calomel does, but have no bad
after effects. They don't injure the
teeth like strong liquids or calomel.
They take hold of the trouble and
quickly correct it. Why cure the liver
at the expense of the teeth? Calomel
sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
So do strong liquids. 1t is best not to
take calomel, but to let DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets take its place.
Most headaches. "dullness" and that
lazy feeling come from constipation and
a disordered liver. Take DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel "ioggy' and
'heavy." Note how they "clear" clouded
brain and how they "perk up" the spir-
its. 10c and 25c box. All druggists.

REALIZE FRIGHTFULNESS.

AS was suggested III this column
Yesterday, Germany is beng repaid
in her own. coin. Paul made an obser-
walton in his day TO the effect that
whatever we SOW we eventually reap,
and in his day there was saying
among the Romans that what we DO
to others, others will do unto US.
The bombardment Of German citl-
es by aviators of the allies is bring

who started out OH war OF fright

As the Richmond Virginian in this
connection says, the allies have at
last, and reluctantly, taken a leaf
from the book of Teutonc "Schreck-
lichkeit." Three days i'll succession
French fiers have bombed interior
towns Of Germany.
Behind the firing lines, Germany
has known little of frightfulness as
rracticed by Won TirptZ and his col
leagues. The allies could not bring
themselves to attack undefendei
towns: Ever consideration OF hui
mainly. every tradition of chlvalrors
conduct forbade the destruction of
the lives of non-combatants. The
Teutons persisted IN course when
they described to their own people
as being wonderfully successful IN
carving terror to the hearts OF the
hated English.
Now. the birds Of evil omen have
begun to return to the home rooSt.
Terror is to be spread Throughout the
German territory within the flying
range of the allied armen, If tons
of high explosives will have that eI-
feet. 1t is quite possible that de-
vice which German minds had cot
ceiyed wherewth to brighten the
English may. in fact. have precisely
that effect upon the German people
themselves, who, with all the hard
ships that the war has imposed, nave
lived in fancied security from any
ching the allies could do. We shall
see very soon what the policy OF
terror evolved by the German high
command may have when turned ap-
