Pleasing Simplicity.
Already there are many designs
for summer dresses. 1t is an ex-
cellent plan, for instance, for street
wear, or satin and georgette crepe
for the house. The foulard dress
will take the place of the serge one
in many instances, though for street
wear, serge dresses worn with a fur
scarf or cape are especially good. as

Separate Waists and Skirts.
Under the separate coat one may
wear either a dress or a separate
waist and skirt. The designs illus
trated here are particularly smart,
the skirt being on the new slim
lines. and the novel collar on the
waist with its tiny lace ruffle is a
distinctly new feature.

WHEN YOU WAKE
UP DRINK GLASS
OF HOT WATER
Wash the poisons and toxins from
system before putting more
food into stomach.
Says lnslde-bathing makes any.
one look and feel clean,
sweet and refreshed.

Wash yourself on the inside be-
fore breakfast like you do on the
outside. This is vastly more i'm
portant because the skin pores do
not absorb impurities into the blood,
causing illness, while the bowel
pores do.
For every ounce of food and drink
taken into the stomach, nearly an
ounce of waste material must be
carried out of the body. If this
waste material is not eliminated day
by day it quickly ferments and gem
crates poisons, gases and toxins
which are absorbed or sucked into
he blood stream, through the lymph
ducts which should suck only nour-
ishment to sustain the body.
A splendid health measure is to
drink, before breakfast each day,
a glass Of real hot water with
teaspoonful of limestone phosphate
in it, which is a harmless way to
wash these poisons, gases and toX-
ins from the stomach, liver, kidneys
and bowels; thus cleansing, sweet
ening and freshening the entire ali
mentary canal before putting more
food into the stomach.
A quarter pound of limestone
phosphate costs but very little at
the drug store but is sufficient to
make anyone an enthusiast on in
side bathing. Men and women who
are accustomed to wake up with a
dull, aching head or have furred
tongue, bad taste, nasty breath, sal
low complexion, others who have
bilious attacks, acid stomach or con-
stipation are assured of pronounced
improvement in both health and ap-
pearance shortly.

We are all aware of the move

backing asking that every person

ira pig or two this coming year.
Pork production is away below
normal and the government is
afraid that if the farmers of the
country do not make an extra eff
fort to build up the deficiency,
the shortage will grow and prove
a serious difficulty in feeding our
own army and those of our Allies,
besides the citizens of our Coun-
try.

set aside a fund to be used in fur

will be sold to the boy at cost

highly commendable one, besides
being patriotic it will encourage
