Glass Of Hot Water
Before Breakfast
a Splendid Habit
Open sIuices Of the system each
morning and wash away the
poisonous, stagnant matter.

Those of us who are accustomed to
feel dull and heavy when we arise:
splitting headache, stuffy from cold.
foul tongue, nasty breath, acid
stomach, lame back, can, instead,
both look and feel as fresh as daisy
always by washing the poisons and
toxins from the body with phosphated
hot water each morning.
We should drink, before breakfast,
a glass of real hot water with tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in
it to flush from the stomach, liver,
kidneys and ten yards of bowels the
previous days indigestible waste, sour
bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans
ing, sweetening and purifying the
entire alimentary tract before putting
mere food into the stomach.
The action Of limestone phosphate
and hot water on an empty stomach
is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans
out all the sour lamentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one q
splendid appetite for breakfast and
il is said to be but a little while until
the roses begin to appear in the
cheeks. A quarter pound of limestone
phosphate will cost very little at the
drug store, but is sufficient to make
anyone who is bothered with bilious
ness, constipation, stomach trouble Of
rheumatism a real enthusiast on the
subject of internal sanitation. y Try
it and you are assured that you viii
look better and feel better in every
way shortly.

Letters and
Iauretta

per Syndicate)
When Lauretta's parents bought the
old farmstead in a suburb in Long Is
land, on the main road to the city, and
moved bag and baggage out to it, Lau-
retta herself was perhaps. even more
delighted than they were.
Although she was city girl and
fond of city life and music and all
the arts, still nature, as revealed in
the country, lent much toward COM
pleteness in life to her. She loved
prowling about lanes and ancient land
marks, and finding out, as far as pos
sible, what kind Of people inhabited
the regions she explored before she
had found her way there. Lauretta
had visions of one day becoming
famous writer, and was constantly on
the lookout for plots and mysteries to
solve. The country, she felt, might af-
ford many possibilities if she just
kept her eyes open and her brain from
going to seed.
The old farm was more or less di-
lapidated when the Carsons took pos
session Of it, but the grounds were
lovely and the place would in time be
a wonderful home.
The small, broken-down mail box
that stood on post at the gate was
the first thing that attracted Lauretta's
roaming eyes. It was so foreign to
anything she had seen in the city that
she fell straightway to wondering
whether or not the district had free
delivery and whether or not that old
box was obsolete. Perhaps there were
letters in it. Lauretta resolved to
make that wooden box one Of her first
interests. She would have to watch
continually to find out if a postman
collected from it and whether or not
people dropped letters in it. There
was no sign to tell if it were or were
not still used by the town people. The
house was so far from d post office
that Lauretta was inclined to think
the wooden box on the post at her
gate was still a part Of the mailing
system.
And while Lauretta was wondering
about the old box, Jimmy Gains was
fretting and tuning because Blanche
Markham had answered his letter of
love with silence. Six long weeks ago
he had mailed that letter while motor

ing on Long Island. Blanche had Civ
en- him every reason to suppose that
his proposal would meet with an af-
tirmative reply, but-no reply had
come.
Girls are q rummy lot" was jim
my's comment at the end Of the sew
enth week Of silence. In the mean
time he decided upon short trip
South in his machine. Perhaps speed
ing along the country highways would
restore his brain to something like its
ordinary running order. "She might
at least have replied" he told himself;
and was glad that he would soon be
up at Pittsburgh training for the Of
1cers' corps. mo time for girls, any
way" he decided. Jimmy was fine to
look upon, fine as to character and an
all-round fine young man. Blanche
Markham might still regret her ST.
lence."
Lauretta waited each morning at
her window to see If anything resem-
bling a pOstman stopped to collect let
tiers from the box, while Jimmy Gains
m0tored through the country because
of a letter that had reposed for seven
weeks In the very box that Lauretta
watched with so much interest.
Strange bits of thread were weaving
a quaint pattern for Jimmy and Lau-
retta. Neither was as yet aware of
the others existence, but the tiny imps
tof destiny were very. very busy work
ing and planning their way for them.
Lauretta waited for enc whole week
before she felt justified in looking in
ito the old mail box. The farm was al.
ready beginning to look inhabited, and
Lauretta's mother and father were
happy strolling abo1t the garden one
afternoon. Lauretta went out to the
roadside. and with a quick jerk dis
lodged the small box from its anciep,
resting place on toy Of the post.
