Look and Feel
Clean,' Sweet and
Fresh Every Day
Drink a glass Of real hot water
before breakfast to wash
out polsons.

Life is not merely to live, but to
live well. eat wen, digest we'll, work
well, sleep well, look well. What a
glorious condition to attain, and yet
now very easy 1t Is IL one will only
adopt the morning inside bath.
Folks who are accustomed to feel
dull and heavy when they arise, split
ting headache. .stuffy from a cold, foul
tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach,
can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy
by opening the sluices of the system
each morning and flushing out the
whole of the internal poisonous stag
nant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing. sick or
well, should. each morning, before
breakfast, drink glass of real hot
water with teaspoonful of limestone
sphosphate in it to wash from the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the
previous days indigestible waste,
sour bile and poisonous toxins, thus
cleansing, sweetening and purifying
the entire alimentary' canal before
putting more food into the stomach.
The action Of hot water and limestone
phosphate on an empty stomach is
wonderfully invigorating. 1t cleans
out all the sour lamentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one a
splendid appetite for breakfast. While
you are enjoying your breakfast the
water and phosphate is quietly ex-
tracing large volume of water from
the blood and getting ready for a
thorough flushing Of all the inside
organs.
The millions ofvpeople who are
bothered with constipation, bilious
spells, stomach trouble, rheumatism;
others who have sallow skins, blood
disorders and sickly compilations are
urged to get quarter pound of lime
stone phosphate from the drug store
which will cost very little. but is
sufficient to make anyone pro-
nounced crank on the subject OF
Internal sanitation,

LADIES! DARKEN

Use GrandIAa's Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
will Know.

The use offSage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded. gray hair TO It's natural
color dates back to grandmother q
time. She used 1t to keep her hair
beautifully dark, glossy and attrac-
tive. Whenever her hair took on that
dull. faded or streaked appearance
this simple mixture was applied with
wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking al
any drug store for a bottle Of "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you
will get this famous old preparation
improved by the addition Of other in
gradients. which can be depended up
On to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says 1t darkens the hair SO naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell 1t has
oeen applied. You simply dampen Q
sponge or soft brush with 1t and draw
this through your hair. taking ont
strand at a time. BY morning tho
gray hair disappears, and after an,
,ther application or two. 1t becomes
beautifully dark and glossy. <
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
BOUND is delightful toilet requisite

appearance. 1t is not intended fol-
