HAVE ROSY CHEEKS
AND FEEL FRESH AS
A DAlSY-TRY THIS!
Says glass of hot water with
phosphate before breakfast
washes out poisons

To see the tinge of healthy bloom
clearer and clearer, to wake up with
out a headache, backache, coated
tongue or nasty breath, in fact 10
feel your best, day in and day out. just
try inside bathing every morning for
one week.
Before breakfast each day. drink a
glass of real hot water with teaspoon
full of limestone phosphate in ii as a
harmless means of washing from the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the
sour bile and toxins: thus cleansing,
sweetening and purifying the entire
ailmentary canal before putting more
food into the stomach. The actioA of
hot water and limestone phosphate on
an empty stomach is wonderfully in
MIGRATING. 1t cleans out all the sour
lamentations, gases and acidity and
gives one a splendid appetite for break
fast.
\ quarter pound of limestone phas-
phate will cost very little at the drug
store but is sufficient TO demonstrate
that. Those who are subject to con-
stipation, bilious attacks, acid stomach,
rheumatic twinses, also those whose
skin is sallow and complexion pallid,
that one week of inside bathing will
have them both looking and feeling
better in every way.

WHEELER REPLIES TO

Great Falls, March 4.-Returned

concerning the resolution defeated by

Among ather things Mr. Wheeler said :

draw attention to certain facts No
one urging the resolution found il con-
venicnt to state that more than $50

activities of my office working har-
moniousiy with Marshal Asbridge
1t was stated on the floor that the dis :

such a move required an affidavit.
that for me or any other attorney un-
der similar circumstances to have
made, would have been nothing less
than perjury. Another declared
Wheeler ought to have appealed The
federal statutes specifically prohibit
appeal where there has been verdict
for the defendant and that was the re-
suit in the Yes Hall case.
1T may be stated that while | do not
agree with Judge Bourquin. in his po-
sition in the Yes Hall case, | was not
in a position to charge him, by affi-
davit, with personal bias and prejudice
and | will go further and say that
while | believe his view erroneous in
this case, | certainly credit him with
being honest in the view taken"
Mr.. Wheeler's statement contained
about 500 words.
