Hot Water for
Sick Headaches
Tells why everyone should drink
hot water with phosphate
in 1t before breakfast.

Headache Of any kind, is caused by
to-intoxication-whi means self
poisoning Liver and bowel poiSonS
called toxins, sucked into the blood
through the lymph ducts, excite the
heart which pumps the blood so fast
that it congests in the smaller arteries
and veins of the head producing vio-
lent, throbbing pain and distress,
called headache. You become nervous,
Respondent sick, feverish and mis-
cradle, your meals sour and almost
nauseate you. Then you resort to
acetanilide, aspirin or the bromides
which temporarily relieve but do not
rid the blood of these irritating
toxins.
A glass of hot water with a, tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in
it, drank before breakfast for awhile,
will not only wash these poisons from
your system and cure you of head
ache but will cleanse, purify and
freshen the entire alimentary canal.
AS your pharmacist for cquarter
pound of limestone phosphate 1t is
inexpensive, harmless as sugar, and
almost tasteless, except for a sour
ish twinge which is not unpleasant.
If you aren't feeling your best, if
tongue is coated or you wake UP with
bad taste, foul breath or have colds.
indigestion, biliousness, constipation
Or sour, acid stomach, begin the phos-
phated hot water cure to rid your
system of toxins and poisons.
Results are quick and it is claimed
that those who continue to flush out
the stomach, liver and bowels every
morning never have any headache or
known a miserable moment.

Fancy suit sleeves, such as split
ing them horizontally above elbows
and inserting vertical tabs giving a
box-pleated effect, or crossing under
arm sections over the upper as an
envelope, embellishing the triangular
inset formed thereby with silk braid
are two ideas on misses models.

FADS AND FASHIONS

Bands Of nutria applied to box
pIeats extending all around at spaced
intervals on the skirt section of a
white wool jersey coat of three-quar-
ter length give a unique effect, espec1-

pleats at the bottom.

SHOULD BE INTERNED

London, December 2.-(British Wireless Service .)-The Morning Post. comment ing on, the former German Emperor's belated abdication, says;
 Tt is possible that the document pur- porting to- be the formal abdication or the German Emperor is genuine, and it is equally possible that it is nothing Of the kind In either case, the instrument contains no word concerning the success sion or the dynasty, nor is It counter signed by any responsible official.
 '1f. however, by virtue of this paper William I has, in fact, abdicated the throne of Prussia and the overlordship of Germany, he has been staying in a neutral country under false pretenses Ills abdication was formally announced by what was the German government when he fled into Holland; so that his condi- ton in that country was ostensibly the condition of a private person It now appears that he was really King and German Emperor until Friday last. In that case the hospitality of Holland has been abused.
 Tt is also worth noting that the writ ten abdication is published at the mo- ment when there is a demand for the extradition of the visitor. What proof of his abdication, 1t may be asked, did the German Emperor present to the Dutch government when he crossed the frontier? If no such proof was offered lit seems that the royal fugitive should have been promptly interned as de; tar-f,

 Senator Underwood expressed the consensus of opinion, it is obvious, when he said this afternoon that he did not think they would get very far with that kind of stuff"
 AS the President entered the House at o'clock, few republicans applauded or arose to their feet. This was their method of expressing disapproval of the Presidents policy of ignoring them in preparing peace proceedings These republicans also pointed to the fact that a few democratic senators failed to stand.
