SAYS HOT WATER WASHES POISONS
 FROM THE LIVER
Everyone should drink hot water with phosphate In It,
 before breakfast.

To feel as fine as the provrbial tid- dle, we must keep the liver washed clean, almost every morning, to pre- vent it's sponge-like pores from clog ging with indigestible material, sour bile and poisonous toxins, says a noted physician.
 If you get headaches, it's your liver. If you catch cold easily, it's your liver. If you wake up with a bad taste, furred tongue, nasty breath or stom- ach becomes rancid, it's your liver. Sallow skin, muddy complexion, wat cry eyes all denote liver uncleanliness. Your liver is the most important, also the most abused and neglected organ of the body. Few know it's function or how to release the dammed-up body waste, bile and toxins. Most folks resort to violent calomel, which is dangerous, salivating chemical which can only be used occasionally be cause it accumulates in the tissues, also attacks the bones.
 Every man and woman, sick or we'll, should drink each morning be- fore breakfast, glass of hot water with teaspoonful of limestone phos- phate in it, to wash from the liver and bowels the previous days indigestlble material, the poisons, sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and freshening the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach.
 Limestone phosphate does not re- strict the diet like calomel, because 1t can not salivate, for it is harmless and you can eat anything afterwards. 1t is inexpensive and almost tasteless, and any pharmacist will sell you quarter pound, which is sufficient for a demonstration of how hot water and limestone phosphate cleans, stlmu- lates and freshens the liver, keeping you feeling fit day in and day out.

IN MEMORIAM

In tribute of love to our dear boy. Maurice, son
of Newton and BERTHE Eckard, who entered into
rest years ago. September TO- 1911.
He was taken in the best of his days.
Blighted in manhood 8 bloom
Torn from the hearts that loved him
To sleep in the silent tomb.
Like the perfume of June's fragrant roses.
AS it floats on the calm twilight air,
Is the thought of the dear bov who left us,
For home in the mansion so fair.
Not dead he is just promoted
To dwell with the angels above.
And there meath the smiles of his Saviour,
He will finish his labor of love.
BY HIS PARENTS.
In sad but loving remembrance of our dear
father and mother Mr.. and Mrs Theodore Logue,
who were suddenly called away one year ago. Sep
tember and Il.
Only few lines, dear father and mother,
To say we will never forget
The happy years spent together,
For the memory lives with us yet.
And if you were only here,
Our hearts would be more light:
For you would always cheer US up
And make things seem more bright.
But our lives are only parting.
And it's hard to bear the grief.
But will put our trust in God
And. sure, will find relief.
But our hearts are ever aching,
Although we smile each day;
For our thoughts are with our loved Ones
That God has taken away.
BY THE CHILDREN
In sad but loving remembrance of our dear little
boy, Oliver Luther Myers. Jr, who died seven
months ago February Is. aged months.
Little Luther our darling.
Pride of all our hearts at home:
But an angel came and whispered,
Little Luther do come home
Go little Luther to thy home.
On yonder blissful shore
We miss thee here, but soon will come
Where thou hast gone before.
BY HIS FATHER AND MOTHER.
In sad but loving remembrance of our little boy
Roland L. Raver. who died one year ago Stephen
Der T. 1916.
Sweet flower thy bloom is shed,
And thou art remembered with the dead;
Short was thy stay with us below,
And it was hard to let thee go.
God needed one more angel
Amidst His shining band;
And so He bent with loving smile
And clasped our darling hand.
So rest on Roland God hath called thee,
And He sought our lonely hearts
Through thee; He did find
And we gave to Him our hearts.
BY THE FAMILY.
In sad but loving remembrance of my dear
mother. Laura F. Ogg, who departed this life one
year ago, September TO- 1916.
Just one year ago we laid you to rest
And folded your cold hands upon your breast;
In silence you suffered in patience you bore,
Until God called you home to suffer no more.
