DRINK A GLASS
OF REAL HOT WATER
BEFORE BREAKFAST.
Says we will both look and feel
clean, sweet and fresh
and avoid Illness.

Sanitary science has of late made
rapid strides with results that are Of
untold blessing to humanity. The lat
est application of its untiring research
Is the recommendation that it is as
necessary to attend to internal SANTA
ton of the drainage system of the hu-
man body as it is to the drains Of the
house.
Those Of US who are accustomed to
feel dull and heavy when we arise,
Eplttting headache, stuffy from cold,
foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stom-
ach. can, instead, feel as fresh as a
daisy by opening the sluices of the sys-
tenn each morning and flushing out
the whole of the internal poisonous
Btagnant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
well. should, each morning before
breakfast, drink glass OF real hot
water with a teaspoonful Of limestone
phosphate in it to wash, from the
stomach. liver and bowels the previ-
pus days indigestible waste, sour bile
and poisonous toxins; thus cleansing,
sweetentng and purifying the entire
aIimentary canal before putting more
food into the stomach. The action OF
hot water and limestone phosphate on
MIGRATING. 1t cleans out all the sour
lamentations, gases, waste and acid
Lty and gives one a splendid appetite
For breakfast. While you are enjoy
ing your breakfast the phosphated hot
water is quietly extracting a large vol
urne of water from the blood and
getting ready for thorough flushing
Of all the inside organs.
The millions of people who are
bothered with constipation, bilious
spells, stomach trouble, rheumatic
stiffness; others who have sallow
skins, blood disorders and sickly COM
plexions are urged to get a quarter
pound of limestone phosphate from
The drug store. This will cost very
little, but is sufficient to make anyone
a pronounced crank on the subject Of
Internal sanitation. ...a.. .s.. .

EMPLOYEES MUST
KEEP CORNS OFF
Says corns destroy efficiency but
can be lifted right
out now.

Many large retail establishments
now insist that every employee have
cornless feet. because one can not
appear pleasant before a patron o.
be fully efficient when the brain is
constantly remindful of these painful
pests.
= The simplest method known to get
relief is to apply few drops Of
fteezone directly upon the tender,
aching corn. which promptly relieves
the soreness and soon the entire
corn, root and all. lifts out without
pain.
A quarter ounce of freezone will
cost very little at any drug store but
Is sufficient to remove every hard or
soft corn or callus from ones feet.
This drug is gummy but dries in
, moment and seems to just shrivel
up the corn without inflaming or
even irritating the surrounding It's
sue or skin.
This should interest many men and
women here.
