Glass of Hot Water
Before Breakfast
a Splendid Habit
Open sluiees 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 a cold,
foul tongue, nasty breath, acid
stomach, lame back, can, instead,
both look and feel as fresh as a 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 indigestlble waste, sour
bile and poisonous toxins thus cleanse
ing, sweetening and purifying tho
entire alimentary tract before putting
more food into the stomach.
The action Of limestone phosphate
ana hot water on an empty stomach
Is wonderfully inyigorating. 1t cleans
out all the sour lamentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one q
splendid appetite for breakfast ana
1t is said 10 be but 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 II is sufficient to make
anyone who is bothered with bilious
ness, constipation, stomach trouble or
rheumatism, real enthusiast on the
subject of internal sanitation.

barrier to successfully carrying

Unless the costs of existence are

Washington, Aug. Steps toward

expected this week.
While all government departments
are working toward the end of ale
waiting unrest by restoring a normal
level of prices, interest centers in the
meeting Tuesday of the conference
called by Attorney General Palmer to
consider the best method of proce-
dure, especially with respect to profit
teering. The committee appointed by
the conference has been engaged in
an exchange of memoranda which will
be put before the conference for rec
ommendation to President Wilson.

Consideration of a plan to sell wheat

market price and the guaranteed

There are indications that the at
torney general is paying especial at
tention to cases of profiteering. He
has at his disposal a great volume of
information collected by the federal
trade commission, showing production
costs in scores of industries. While
there is no law by which profiteering
may be punished directly, Mr.. Palmer
has said that there is a great deal of
good law on the statute books and
it is believed he will find a way to
punish any case where there are evil
dences of eXtortion.
The average citizen is the man in
whose behalf the profiteering inves-
| tigation will be pushed, despite the
fact that it was the new demands of
the railroad labor unions which pre-
cinitated it.

Amsterdam, Aug. ] (Friday, by the
Associated Press. samuel Gompers,
president 81 the A. +. of H., and head
of the American council of the Inter-
national Trades Union Federation in
session here, pleaded for greater rights
for labor today His address followed
the report of committee which said
it could not accept the charter given
labor in the peace treaty as a
full expression of the workers de-
mands.
Mr.. GompeT demanded that labor
should not be regarded as an article
of commerce. He urged also that a
seamens act be enacted to permit sail
ors to leave ships when they were
safely in harbor. He pleaded for the
equality of women and men and abo-
lition of voluntary services.
German delegates disputed Mr..
Gompers argument, which, they said,
made it appear European labor unions
were too conservative. They demand
ed that the workers strive for a reali-
cation of the Berne conferences pro-
gram, including the regulation OF
children's education. women's labor
shorter hours, Sunday rest and the
supervision Of home industries.
