THE FIRST KILLING FROST.

The governments thermometer
Wednesday morning last registered
33 degrees, and brought the first
killing frost of the winter. Early
risers also report thin skim of ice.
Light frosts had occurred several
mornings before, but not sufficient
to show any signs on potatoes, to-
matoes or cotton. The fields of the
latter are black today and have the
appearance of being scorched by a
fire. Killing frost this year is about
three weeks latter than normal, and
but for the weevil a good top crop
of cotton would be made.

by opening the sluices of the system
each morning and flushing out the

Everyone, whether ailing,s sick or

breakfast, drink q glass of real hot
water with a teaspoOnful OF limestone

stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the
previous days indigestble waste,
sour bile and poisonous toxins thus
cleansing, sweetening and purifying
the entire alimentary canal before

The action of hot water and limestone
phosphate on an empty stomach is

splendid appetite for breakfast. While
you are enjoying your breakfast the
water and phosphate is quietly ex-
