Prominent newspaper advertisers
in many parts of the country have
recently, in response to Inquiries from
officials OF the United States treas

that they would prefer to again buy

any new scheme for putting across
this last chapter of the war finance

The talk of dumping il on the. banks
is mistaken and unwise in the ex-
IRENE.
It would be mighty bad thing for
business in general II the banks were
compelled to absorb this fifth issue Of

the banks were tied up in government

money to loan to business houses for

Everyone Should

Wash away all the stomach, liver,

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 duh your head; no constipa-
ton, bilious attacks, sick headache,
colds, rheumatism or gassy, acid stom-
aeh, 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, says a wcll-knOwn
physician.
To keep these poisons and toxins
well flushed from the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels, drink before break
fast each day, glass of hot water
with a teaspoouful of limestone phos-
phate in it. This win cleanse, purify
and freshen the entire alimentary tract,
before putting more food into the
stomach.
Get a quarter pound of limestone
phosphate from your pharmacist. 1t
is inexpensive and almost tasteless, ex-
cept sourish twinge which is not un-
pleasant. Drink phosphated hot water
every morning to rid your system of
these vile poisons and toxins; also to
prevent their formation.

The Rev. Peter Chan, Jesuit, 81 years

the priest who brought Christmas to the
worshippers at the Church of the Nativi-
". Had it been necessary, he could have
conducted the mass Just as well i'll Port

The first report of the state of Yer

gives an account of the work Of the
board and makes the following recon-
mendations:
The board of control has given its

fairs The board believes that Ger
tain matters are of sufficient Importance
to require serious consideration by the
! Legislature and, pursuant to this con-,
vietion, UNANIMOUS on the part of the
board the following recommendations
are made:
l. That the legislature consider the
ACCESSIBILITY Of installing 4 modern
sprinkler system in the capitol, in order
to provide adequate protection in case
of fire and 10 lower rates of insurance
>. That the legislature, for like rea-
sons. consider the matter of fire pro-
| lection Of all state institutions.
3. That the legislature consider the
matter Of insurance on state property.
1t is urged that the Legislature deter
mine whether or not the state should,
IS sinking fund or otherwise, provide
Is own insurance on all or part of state
property.
T. That in the appropriations for and
erections of new buildings at staac
institutions hereafter, due care should
be exercised that such materials and ar
hitecturc be selected as win best con
