Everyone Should
Drink Hot Water
in the Morning
Wash away all the stomach, liver,
and bowel poisons before
breakfast.

To feel your best day In and day out,
to feel clean inside; no sour bile to
coat your tongue and sicken your
breath or dull your head: no constipa-
ton, bilious attacks, sick headache,
colds, rheumatism or gassy, acid stom-
ach, you must battle on the inside like
you battle outside. This is vastly more
important, because the skin pores do
not absorb impurities into the blood,
while the bowel pores do.
To keep these poisons and toxins
well flushed from the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels. drink before
breakfast each day, glass of hot wa
ter with teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it. This will cleanse
purify, and freshen the entire ailment-
airy tract before eating more food.
Get a quarter pound of limestone
phosphate from your pharmacist. It
is expensive and almost tasteless.
Drink phosphated hot water every
morning to rid your system of these
vile poisons and toxins; also to pre-
vent their formation.

CLING TO THE FARM"

John Burroughs, the venerable po-
et-naturalist, in writing about the
sweetness of life on the soil, said:
Nothing will take the various dis
tempers. which the city and artificial
life breed, out of man like farming
like direct and loving contact with
the soil. 1t draws out the poison.
1t humbles him, teaches him patti
ence and reverence, and restores the
proper tone to his system.
BLESSED is he whose youth was
passed on farm.
"Cling to the farm, make much of
it, put yourself into it, bestow your
heart and your brain upon it, so that
it shall SAVIOR of you-radiate your
virtues after your days work is
done"
