Look and Feel
Clean, Sweet and
Fresh Every Day
Drink glass of real hot water
before breakfast to wash
out poIsons.

Life is not merely to live, but to
live well, eat well, digest well, work
well. sleep well, look we'll. What glo-
rious condition to attain, and yet how
very easy it is if one will only adopt
the morning inside bath
Folks who are accustomed to feel
dull and heavy when they arise, split
ting headache, stufry from a cold, foul
can, instead, feel as fresh as O 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
phosphate in it to wash from the stom-
aeh, liver, kidneys and bowels the pre-
vious days indigestible waste, Sour
bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans
ing, sweetening and purifying the en-
tire alimentary canal before putting
more food into the stomach The ae-
ton of hot water and limestone phos-
phate on an empty stomach is wonder
fully invigorating. 1t cleans out all
the sour lamentations, gases, waste
and aeidity and gives one a splendid
appetite for breakfast. While you are
enjoying your breakfast the water and
phosphate is quietly extracting a large
volume of water from the blood and
getting ready for a thorough flushing
of all the inside organs.
The millions of people who are both
cred with constipation, bilious spells,
stomach trouble, rheumatism; Others
who have sallow skins, blood disorders
and sickly compilations are urged to
get quarter pound of limestone phos-
phate from the drug store which will
cost very little, but is sufficient to
make anyone pronounced crank ON
the subject of internal sanitation

REC-WINGED BLAckBIRD.
" =" VcIt0IU UVWMSI

MIR. Red-Winged Blackbird was sit
ting upon a stump in marshy little
bay. He was thinking. And 1t was
nice to sit there thinking such pleas
ant thoughts on such pleasant day.
lie was wondering If Miss Red
Winged Blackbird would-he hoped
she would and she had almost told him
she would. AT least she hadn't told
MN SO for she was too shy and too
well-behaved Miss Red-Winged
Biackbird to be quite so bold.
But somehow he did feel that she
liked him and he knew that he liked
her. So his thoughts were very pleas
ant and he felt sure that his own spe-
cial little love story would turn out
just right.
lie wasn't going to hurry about ask
ing her this very minute because he
was enjoying thinking about how he
would do it.
lie stood up on the stump several
times in several different ways. first
with his head cooked to the right, then
with his head cooked TO the left. and
then with his head very straight ill.,
deed.
And he said over to himself, Miss
Red-Winged Blackbird, / love you.
VIII you be my mate?'
And then he practiced saying ii this
way, Il love you Miss Red Winged
Biackbird, and / would be glad to get
bugs and worms for you through life"
And then he tried how it would
sound to say, Let us share home
OF PUSHES from this bay, and let us
live here on bush, near the marshy
bay. 1t is |going to be fashionable
bay with many blackbirds living here
and | would like to give you fash
icnable home"
Then, in the distance he saw Miss
Red-Winged Blackbird flying off. and
suddenly he thought what a silly bird
he had been.
He became quite worried for he
wondered if by any chance any other
| Mr.. Red-Winged Blackbird could have
asked her first and perhaps she was
| going off to the dressmaker's or the
| wingnaker's to have her feathers
smoothed for the wedding.
And his thoughts became very sad
instead of joyful and he hurriedly left
his stump and quickly arose in the air
flying after Miss Red-Winged Black
| bird.
He called shrill call, but she didn't
turn around. She didn't want to ap-
pear too anxious to see Mr.. Red-Wing-
ed Blackbird
At last he had caught up with her.
He was out of breath, so fast had he
hurried, but he sang 4 beautiful love-
song, and sang ii with a great deal of
manner, bowling and spreading his
black tail and his handsome black
wings touched with scarlet
Il love you, l love you, love YOU"
he said over and over again. He COM

pletely forgot how he was fitting his
head, he completely forgot what
speeches he had planned to make.
He completely forgot everything ex-
cept Miss Red-Winged Blackbird. and
that she was beautiful in her brown
ish dress with its speckled front.
And Miss RedWinged Blackbird
didn't care what sort of a speech he
made, for she had been dreadfully
worried when he hadn't come to see
her, but had been sitting on the stump
so long and so quietly.
81 love you, | love you. love you."
he said again.
Then he sang again, most beauti-
full song full of melody and tune, and
Miss Red-Winged Blackbird sang soft
ly in the chorus.
He made low bow when he had
finished and said Il would love to III
ways sing for you. would love to al
ways catch bugs and worms for you.
l would love to always guard the little
blush white eggS-that is when there
are little eggs to watch.
''And / would love TO always care
for the birdlinSs when there are little
birdlings to care for, but most of ali
l would love to always care for thee,
dear Miss Red-Winged Blackbird, the
loveliest bird ever seem
For now he was brave He knew
Miss Red-Winged Blackbird loved
him and he could make his speeches.
And she looked at him and said:
Dear Mr. Red-Winged Blackbird,
will come with thee at once"

Safety First.
Rutland News. J

The number of automobile casualties
in Vermont of late is fairly appalling
Some of the more serious ones. it is
noted, are not due to any carelessness
or over-fast driving, but are to degree
entirely accidental and due to reasons
that could not be forseen With the
most careful driving q certain number
of accidents are apt to happen through
defects of roads, of machines, or other
unlocked for contingencies. 1t be-
hOoves all drivers of automobiles to use
the utmost care to reduce these acct
dents to the minimum.
