Get the Habit of Drinking Hot Water
 Before Breakfast
SayS we can't look or feel right with the system full
 of polsons.

Millions of folks bathe internally now instead of loading their system with drugs. Whats an inside bath ?" you say. We'll. 1t is guaranteed to performs miracles if you could believe these hot water enthusiasts.
 There are vast numbers of men and women who, immediately upon arising in the morning, drink a glass of real not water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it. This is a very excellent health measure. It is intended to flush the stomach. liv- CT, kidneys and the thirty feet of in- testines of the previous days waste, sour bile and indigestible material left over in the body which if not eliminated every day, become food for the millions of bacteria which in fest the bowels, the quick result is poisons and toxins which are then ab- sorbed into the blood causing head ache bilious attacks, foul breath, bad taste, colds. stomach trouble, kidney misery, sleep1essness impure blood and all sorts of ailments. People who feel good one day and badly the next, but who simply can not get feeling right are urged to ob- tain a quarter pound of limestone phosphate at the drug store. This will cost very little but is sufficient to make anyone a real crank on the subject of internal sanitation.
 Just as soap and hot water act on the skin, cleansing, sweetening and freshening. so limestone phosphate and hot water act on the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels. It is vast ly more important to hathe on the inside than on the outside, because the skin pores, do not absorb impuri- ties into the blood, while the bowel pores do.

 Early in 1914 tho political situa- lion in Mexico became so chaotic that the United States could not afford to overlook it. For several years a reign of terror had existed within the borders of that republic. At times there was some promise of a stable government, but in every case the promise lasted only until some new bandit was able to obtain a sufficient following to overthrow the existing authority.
 Madero. the president from whom great things were expected, had late 1y been slain by the ambitious and interruptions Huerta, who had as stunned the presidency and was at tempting to rule a small portion of Mexico by the force of his outlaw soldiers.
 There was a suspicion even at that time that mighty nation across the Atlantic was the guiding hand behind 'IIuerta. It Is now known that, even

HOUSEWIVES ARE
ADVISED TO STORE
EGGS DURING MAY

Housewives during the period of
heavy egg production are urged by
yhe Food Administration to store
eggs during May. Information gath
cred by the Food Administration
tends to show that eggs during the
winter months, or the season of
scant production, will be even high
er in price than they were last win
ter.
"By storing eggs now by the
water glass method, or any other
method which assures preservation
of the egg supply, the housewife will
not only assure herself a whole
some food product during the win
ter months but will also aid the
Food Administration in diminish
ing the use of other food products
which can be shipped to our Allies"
says Food Administrator Charles
Hebberd
According to the economic price
curve eggs are lowest in price dur
ing the months of April and May
and reach the peak of the curve
during November and December.
For this reason the food administra-
ton is urging the storage of eggs
at this time.
