Jump from Bed
in Morning and
Drink Hot Water
Tells why everyone should drink
hot water each morning
before breakfast.

Why is man and woman, half the
time, feeling nervous, respondent,
worried; some days headachy, dull and
unstrung; some days really incapaci-
tated by illness.
II we all would practice inside-bath-
ing, what a gratifying change would
take place. Instead Of thousands of
half-sick, anaemic-looking souls with
pasty, muddy compilations we should
see crowds Of happy, healthy, rosy
checked people everywhere. The rea-
son Is that the human system does not
rid itself each day of all the waste
which it accumulates under our pres
ent mode of living. For every ounce
of food and drink taken into the system
nearly an ounce of waste material
must be carried out, else 1t ferments
and forms ptomaine-like poisons which
are absorbed into the blood.
@Just as necessary as 1t is to clean
the ashes from the furnace each day,
before the fire will burn bright and
hot. so we must each morning clear
the inside organs of the previous days
accumulation of indigestible waste and
body toxins. Men and women, whether
sick or we'll, are advised to drink each
morning, before breakfast, q glass or
real hot water with teaspoonful of
limestone phosphate in it, as harm
less means of washing out of the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the
indigestible material, waste, sour bile
and toxins; thus cleansing, sweeten-
ing and purifying the entire alimen-
tary canal before putting more food
into the stomach.
Millions of people who had their turn
at constipation, bilious attacks, acid
stomach, nervous days and sleepless
nights have become real cranks about
the morning inside-bath. A quarter
pound of limestone phosphate will not
cost much at the drug store, but is
suficient to demonstrate to anyone,
its cleansing, sweetening and freshen.

MOSQUITOES ARE VERY
DANGEROUS.
They Give You Malaria, But Williams
No. 101 Tonic Takes 1t Away

Billions of mosquitoes will come
this spring from the low, marshy
places which were watered by the tor
rental rains in March Fifty years
ago these pesky "varmints" were
looked upon as a nuisance only. But
in recent years scientists have found
that they transmit malaria-and that
it is transmitted in NO other way
Williams No. 101 Tonic is a recog-
niZed specific for treating malaria
and is being used extensively and sue
cessfully in the malarial sections. 1t
contains Quinine, which is deadly to
the malarial germ; also Iron, which
strengthens and invigorates the body,
and Magnesia, which keeps the bow
els regular and healthy. 1t is a good
general tonic and a bottle Of it should
be in every home in a malarial dis
trict. Get a bottle from your drug
gist. Refuse to accept any substitute.
There is no other medicine like it.

METHODISTS TO
help SOLDIERS !
into GOOD JOBS

CHATTANOOGA, April 22-The
Methodist church will be transformed
into giant employment bureau for
discharged soldiers and sailors on
May 4, according to plans being formu-
lated at the southern division head
quarters here. From every pulpit of
the denomination the unemployment
problem will be put forward and the
peril discussed fully by Methodist
Minute Men" In many churches
over the South the business men in
the congregation on Employment Sun
day will drop in the offering, stating
how many men they can use. Those
seeking positions will also put in
their names and a committee of the
church will bring them into contact
with employers needing help.
The applicants for positions do not
have to be members of the Methodist
church or any other church in order
to get the aid of the minute men in
their employment drive. The fact
IhuI luSy SCI NCu Will lle COlOIS Will
be sufficient accommodation
The plans provide for cooperation
with the United States employment
bureau and that conducted by the Y.
M. c "A. wherever it is practical
Every church will have a committee
on employment and rehabilitation to
see how many of the soldiers of the
particular congregation have posi-
lions awaiting them, and to open po-
sitions for others who do not have
such opportunities.
SiXth-Thousand "gattling-g
speakers-laymen who are serving as
five-minute men in the giganic
Methodist Centenary campaign for
100000, 000-will tell of THE en-
ployment proposition, and sermons of
Methodist ministers will deal with the
same subject May 4. One or more
minute men will speak at every SER
vice.
Messages on the soldier and sailor
employment situation are in the
course of preparation for minute men,
showing not only it's perils but the
possibilities of meeting it success
fully.

WHIMSICAL THOUGHTS KEEP
BARBARA AWAKE.
CHAPTER LXXII.

1t was with such thoughts that l
waited for Neil. My confidence fully
restoredHso I thought; my heart
filled with love. 1t was long after
midnight when he came in.
Il thought you never would come,
dear. so wanted to explain things
to you, and / have scarcely seen you
since you came home l said after
kissing him.
You will oblige me very much if
you will postpine your explanation,
or forget it altogether. I am very
tired and in no mood for talk"
Of course l said no more. l felt
sure something had happened to up
set Neil; something unpleasant. Had
it been at Blanche Orton's? The
thought was upsetting, to say the
least I wished it were morning and
Mr.. Frederick would come. l per-
haps then would get at the cause of
Neil's abrupt repulse; his refusal to
talk.
was restless and unbidden
thoughts, many of them unwelcome
filled my mind. I recalled the time
| found the imprint of Blanche Or
tons check on the blotter in Neil's
office. Even as long ago as that she
had been mixed up in his affairs in
some way. l seemed to be having
streak of bad luck, almost. l had
been so happy, then came Lorraine
with the tale of Mr.. Powers going to
her father, and the other things |
had heard. Neil was still angry with
me, would not listen when l tried to
tell him l had not meant anything
wrong when / went to his office. Yes
l was unlucky just now.
Then with the abruptness with
which we turn from one thing to an
other in the night when lying awake,
l recalled seeing long ladder l had
seen few days previous raised
against a building. 1t was one of
the double sort, stretched wide apart
for safety. l watched the people as
they approached it, recalling the old
superstition about passing under
ladder. Most of those who came
along went way out into the street
to avoid doing so, but occasionally
noticed someone would deliberately
pass under the ladder. Finally quite
an elderly woman came along laden
with parcels, and she deliberately
shifted her load so that she could
pass under the ladder. 1 spoke to her
why did you go under the ladder?
1t is bad luck isn't it?''
No, Miss 1t brings you good luck,
Although some folks think the other
way"
So as l lay wide-awake l thought
that no matter what one did perhaps
it didn't make much difference in
the end. If you went around the lad
der or under it, it all depended upon
your point of view whether it
brought luck or not Wasn't it so
with life? Then my thoughts shift
ed again to my hope for social ca
reer, a successful one. l recalled the
many lists of those whom 1 wished
to cultivate l had made, and Destroy
ed until the final one which suited
me, was complete.
/ The clock struck four. | remem-
bered nothing more until Ada called

up, so soundly had l slept in the late
morning. Now l heard the water

to talk to him. He had fallen asleep

HUNGARIAN TROOPS ARE

VIENNA DISPATCH SAYS

PARIS, March s.-Hungarian troops
today are engaging the Roumanians
on a large front, an unofficial dis
patch from Vienna said.
For some time the Hungarisns
have been growing distinctly warlike
and the reported offensive against
Roumania was not unexpected.
Several days ago Queen Marie and
her daughters left Roumania with the
announced purpose of visiting the
Queens son, who is in England. An
other explanation offered for the visit
at this time is that the royal family
was fleeing to avoid danger in the
event of'a renewal Of hostilities be-
tween Roumania and the Hungarians.

.LENINE FOE AGENT,
SAYSU. S. ENVOY

David r. Francis, American am
bassador to Russia, today told the
Senate Committee investigating Boil
sheviki that he believed Lenine was
German agent from the very be-
ginning"
Francis told of his pleasure at the
first revolution which overthrow the
Gar.
Il was tired of the empire and 1
thought the Russian people were
tired of it," said Francis. 'On
March IS, 1917, I cabled my Govern
ment recommending that I be per-
mftted to recognize the MiIiukoff
provisional government, and on
March %, I was permitted to do so.
! believed then and believe now that
this government later headed by
Kerensky stood for law and order
and was in fact the same kind of
democracy that our Government is.
Kept Away From Reds.
Il never had any relation with the
Bolshevik government. In fact I
recommended strongly against estab-
fishing relations with it."
Francis said that Kerensky made a
fatal mistake when he did not imprison
Lenine and TrOtsky and try them for
treason. After the abortive bolshevilx
uprising in July, 1917, had KerenslIy
done that Francis said the successful
bolshevik revolution the following No
Fember might not have taken place.
The kerensky government tried to
prosecute the war vigorously and TO keep
Russia true to the allies" Francis de-
clsred. He said Rerensky's government
was manned by able and patriotic men.
Vast Differences.
There was as much difference be-
tween the bolshevik revolution and the
provisional government as there was be-
tween the provisional government and
the CZarist regime said Francis.
Francis began his statement by tell
ing how completely the Germans had
control of banks. the chemical industry,
glassmaking and the sugar business in
Russia He said Germans even con-
trolle dthe sales of American products
This control of industry and finance was
never relinquished after the war began,
Francis said.
IF the war had been postponed five
years" the ambassador declared,
Germany would have had such a
fOothold in Russia that it would have
been impossible to dislodge her"
Speaking of Lenine and Trotsky,
Francis said that the former is 4
great intellect, while TrOtsky is an
ADVENTURE.
Trotsky has great executive abil-
ity," said Francis, but when he and
Lenine differ, Lenine is also able 10
dominate TrOtsky. Lenine, in my be-
lief, is man with a sincere purpose.
but OF interruptions methods. This is
evidenced by the fact that he encour-
aged or permitted the reign of terror
now raging in Russia when his power
