DRINK A GLASS .
OF REAL HOT WATER
BEFORE BREAKFAST
sGya We Will both look and
feel clean, sweet and fresh
and avoid illness.

Sanitary science has Of late made
rapid strides with results that are
Of untold blessing TO humanity. The
latest application of its untirtng
research is the recommendation
that IL Is as necessary to attend to
internal sanitation OF the drainage
system of the human body as IL Is to
the drains OF the house.
Those OF US who are accustomed

q cold. foul tongue, nasty breath,
acid stomach. can, instead, feel as
fresh as a daisy by opening the
sluices OF the system each morn
ing and flushing out the whole Of
the internal poisonous stagnant
matter.
Everyone, whether slIinE. sick or
well. should, each morning before
breakfast. drink q glass OF real hot
water with q teaspOonful OF lime
stone phosphate in II 10 wash from
the stomach, liver and bowels the
previous days indigestibie waste,
sour bile and poisonous toxins;
thus cleansing, sweetening and puri-
flying the entire alimentary canal
before putting more food into the
stomach.
The millions OF people who are
bothered with constipation, bilious
spells. stomach trouble, rheumatic
stiffness: others who have sallow
skins. blood disorders and sickly
compilations are urged 20 get a quar-
-er pound OF limestone phosphate
from the drug store. This will
cost very little, but is sufficient TO
make anyone a pronounced crank
on the subject OF internal santa
ton.

RUSSIAN COLLAPSE
THREATENS BIGU.S.
EXPORT COMMERCE

An annual trade OF approximately
1921. oOO. 900 between the United States
and Russia is jeopardized by the Boil
sheviki collapse
According to reports BY the Depart
n1ent OF Commerce today, the export
and import business between this
country and revolutionary Russia last
year showed a healthy growth over
that of the year previous-but the re-
cent trend Of international events
threatens TO curtail further trade
tremendously.
Takes over SupDlies-
Already this Government has taken
over vast quantities OF supplies con-
tracted for in the United States by
Russian AGENTS million and a half
dollars worth Of war stutfs alone hay
ing passed back into American hands
after being piled on the seaboard for
shipment to Russia.
According to the Commerce Depart
ment figures, imports from European
Russia in 1917 were $12.0OO,OO0 against
S4.4T9.OOO in 1916. Exports TO Eu-
ropean Russia amounted to SSlo.Ooo.-
900 in 1917, against $685., 100000 in
1916.
Asiatic Trade Less
Owing 10 the tremendous eonges-
ton and import restrictions at Rus
sIa's Asiatic port, Vladivostok, trade
between the United States and Asiatic
Russia fell OF during 1917, the grand
total of trade between this country
and all Russia being S43s.0OO.OOO in
1o1- a 1osa ~ S2o mn 600 from 1915
The great increases in the trade
with European Russia are attributed
to Americas entry into the wer and
extension Of credits to the Russian
government as we'll as direct steps to
increase supplies to the Petrograd
government. Sharp rises in prices
tend to swell the money totals above
