ing you.
Tomorrow morning, Immediately
upon arising, drink a gl~.s of hot
water with a teaspoonful OF limestone
phosphate in it. This is intended to
first neutralize and then wash out Of
your stomach, liver, kidneys and
thirty feet of intestines all the indi-
gestible waste, poisons, sour bile and
toxins, thus cleansing, sweetening and
purifying the entire alimentary canal.
Those subject to sick headaches,
backache, bilious attacks, constipation
or any form of stomach trouble, are
urged to get quarter pound Of lime
stone phosphate from the drug store
and begin enjoying this morning in
side-bath. It is said that men and
women who try this become enthu-
siastic and keep it up daily. It is a
splendid health measure for it is more
important to keep clean and pure on
the inside than on the outside, because
the skin pores do not absorb impuri-
ties into the blood, causing disease,
while the bowel pores do.
The principle of bathing inside is
not new, as'millions of people practice
it. Just as hot water and soap cleanse
purify and freshen the skin, so hot
water and a teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate act on the stomach, liver
kidneys and bowels. Limestone phos
phate is an inexpensive white powder
and almost tasteless. =

IT wo young men, strangers in this
community, furnished quite a little
amusement to number of our citizens
late Monday afternoon. Who they were
and where they came from nobody seems
to know, neither is it definitely known
what time they reached the city. When
notice was first taken of them they had
both fallen asleep in their car which they
had parked in front Of the Meme Clothing
Company. They slept very soundly
and the usual noise on the street was
unable to wake them UP. One Of those
who saw them could not resist the tempta-
ton to take 4 pietHre Of them. 1t is
interesting to know how they could
sleep so soundly when all the thirst
parlors had been closed Sunday and also
Monday, being primary election day.

BURNQUIST LEADS
IN EARLY RETURNS
Continued from hrst pape.)

in several of the towns and voting pre-
cincts no democratic votes were cast
at all. New Ulm cast 148 votes for the
Democratic gubernatorial candidates, of
which number Fred E. Wheaton received
126 and w. L. Comstock %. Altho
it was conceded all around that Lind
bergh would carry New Ulm by good
majority but few expected that it would
be so large as it turned out to be. Lind
bergh received 800 votes to Burnquist's
234 thus carrying the city by 566 major
ity. This is certainly a vindication for
DR.. L. A. Fritsche who was suspended
and removed by Governor Bunrquist as
mayor of the city and no doubt it was
meant as such by the voters.
In the Towns of Sigel the voters almost
made it unanimous, giving Burnquist
only one vote and Lindbergh 1877. Other
towns also showed up as veritable
strongholds for Lindbergh and the state
ment frequently made by the farmers
hereabouts that they would 'stick'
had a practical demonstration in the
results of the election.
Very few reports from Nicollet County
are available at this time we go to press.
In the towns of Lafayette, West Newton
and Brighton Lindbergh got very
heavy vote. In West Newton 1873 votes
for Lindbergh and 10 for Burnquist.
Lafayette ISL for Lindbergh and IS
for Burnquist and Brig hto1 48 for Lind
bergh and 10 for Burnquist. In these
towns also Cong ressman Davis received
a highly complimentary vote and Dryer
of Sibley County has the lead for the
nomination of Senator from the counties
of Nicollet and Sibley. In these three
towns also Gieseke has very good vote
and the town of CORTLAND gave him
all votes except four and it can be
safely assumed that he will carry the
nomination. Louis T. Precht has every
reason to feel proud of the vote that he
received in the townships mentioned and
he is quite confident that he will secure
enough votes to be one of the candidates
who will run in the fall election.
There were only two contests for
County Offices, one for Representative
and the other for Register Of Deeds.
From the incomplete returns it would
appear that Louis Spellbrink and Anton
S. Dorm carried the nomination and will
oppose each other in the fall election and
for the office of Register of Deeds Fred
Christensen, the present incumbent,
and Ed. MCGOWAN of the town of Eden
will fight it out in November.

A warrant for the arrest of Phillip
Mueller who committed an assault upon
Alex Waibel was sworn out Saturday and
no doubt further warrants will be sworn
out against some Of the ring leaders in
this dastardly outrage.
The incident at Comfrey rather spoiled
the entire trip for the boosters and quite
a number went home from there. Others
proceeded on their trip to New Ulm via
Hanska and Searles. At Hanska they
had no difficulty altho H. Chambard,
the real estate dealer, started in to make
a demonstration but he did not 60 any
farther than that.
New Ulm Entertains Farmers.
The party arrived at New Ulm shortly
before 700 o'clock and proceeded to
Turner Hall park where they rested for
several hours and listened to music
rendered by Hofmeisters Band. Quite
a number of the citizens joined the
boosters and visited with them while
they were in the city. For the cordial
reception given the farmers of Brown
County by the citizens of New Ulm the
boosters feel truly thankful and have
requested the Review to extend to the
citizens their sincere and heartfelt thanks.
In point of attendance the booster tour
was certainly a success. Over 200 cars
started from Sleepy Eye, the rallying
point at 1000 o'clock in the morning
Friday and proceeded from there to
Springfield via Golden where they
stopped in the park Immediately adjoin-
ing the village and had their lunch. They
were accompanied by the Jolly Farmers
Band of the town of LeavenWorth who
played at every place where a stop of
any moment was made-except Comfrey.

YES! LIFT A CORN -
OFF: WITHOUT PAIN!
Cincinnati authority tells how to dry
up corn or caIIus so it lifts
off with fingers.

You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes
that nearly killed you before, says this
Cincinnati authority, because g. few
drops of freezone applied directly on a
tender, aching corn or callus, stops sore
ness at once and soon the corn or
hardened callus loosens so it can be
lifted out, root and all, without pain.
A small bottle of freezone cost very
little at any drug store, but will posi-
lively take off every hard or soft
corn or callus. This should be tried,
as it is inexpensive and is said not to
irritate the surrounding skin. -
o[f your druggist hasn't any freezone
tell him to get small bottle for you
from his wholesale drug house. It is
fine stuff and acts like charm every
time. -

SEEK CURE OF ELECTROLYsls
Government Experts Aid in Installing
System to Prevent Damage to
Metal Structures.

The damage done annually to under
ground pipes, cables and other metal
structures in this country by electricity
sis amounts to many millions of dol
lars. There are very few water, gas
or lead cable systems that are not
more or less subject at some points to
electrolytic damage from stray cur
rents. Moreover, the loss does not
consist merely in the shortening OF
the life of such structures electricity
tic damage is one of the causes of the
leakage of water and gas from distrlb-
ution systems. The failure of such
systems on account of electrOlytlc ac-
ton may also involve various dangers
to the life and health of human beings.
According to the bureau of standards
more than Is separate and distinct
methods of dealing with the electricity
sis problem have been proposed ana

Some of these methods are useless, or
even harmful. The bureau Of stand
ards has been studying the subject OF

years, and has aided in Installing COM
plete mitigative systems in several
cities. The bureau makes somewhat
detailed tests in each of these places
about once q year to make sure that
the protective systems are being prop
erly maintained. An extended series
of experiments has recently been I'M
dertaken in the city of Springfield

PERSHING's FORCE IN
FRANCE WELL EQUIPPED
Mai. Gen. Greb|e Tells Senate Com
mittee of Shortage of Supplies at
Training Camps in U. S.

Washington, Dec. 29.-Maj. Gen. Ed
Bowie, Tex, told the senate military
affairs committee on Friday that short
ages at that camp ranged from % per
cent in rifles to 90 per cent in artillery
harness.
Although all the men at Camp
Doniphan, Okla, are now Well-clothed,
the command is still short for over
seas service and has not enough equip
ment in rifles and heavy guns for the
most efficient training, Maj. Gen. Will
liam Wright, the commander, told the
committee. General Wright and Gen
eral Greble, both Of whom recently
returned from the French battle front,
were examined by the committee IN
executive session as to the equipment
Of General Pershing's forces and equip
ment at Rational army environments.
Then in Il public hearing they were
questioned as to their own camps.
General Pershing's troops, the OIL
GERS said, have ample supplies of all
kinds, including ordnance, although
most of the heavy artillery is borrowed
from the allies. They said that the
American expedition has plenty of
clothing and that the only deficiency
in accoutrement was in motor trucks.
At Camp DOniphan, where 25,O0O
men are in training, General Wright
said at the public hearing they were
short 5,114 rifles. There are now H.
600 there, he said.
Other shortages are in all artillery
except three-inch guns, all trench NOR
tars, bayonets and entrenching tools.
Camp Doniphan, he said, has no heavy
machine guns, but has 80 light Lewis
and 80 French machine rifles for train
ing purposes.
All the men now, he said, are well
clothed and have plenty of shoes, and
he added that he felt confident he
could obtain sufficient clothing for for
eign service upon starting for Europe.
General Wright said his troops had
not used broomsticks or wooden rifles
General Wright was followed by
General Greble, who gave shortages
in equipment at Camp Bowie on De-
cember %.
