Hopes Women Will
 Adopt This Habit
 As We'll As Men
Glass of hot water each morn ing helps us look and feel
 clean, sweet, fresh.

Happy, bright, alert-vigorous and vivacious-a good clear skin; a natural, rosy complexion and freedom from illness are assured only by clean, healthy blood. If only every woman and likewise every man could realize the won- ders of the morning inside bath, what gratifying change would take place.
 Instead of the thousands of sick ly, anaemic-looking men, women and girls with pasty or muddy com pleXions; instead of the multitudes of nerve wrecks,'' 'rundowns," brain fags' and pessimists We should see virile,S optimistic throng of rosy-cheeked people every where.
 An inside bath is had by drink ing each morning before breakfast, la glass or real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and ten yards of bowels the previous days indiges- tible waste, sour lamentations and poisons before putting more food into the stomach.
 Those subject to sick headache. billiousness, nasty breath, rheuma- tism. colds; and particularly those who have a pallid, sallow complex ion and who are constipated very often, are urged to obtain a quar- ter pound of limestone phosphate at the drug store which will cost but trifle but is sufficient to dem onstrate the quick and remarkable change in both health and appear ance awaiting those who practice internal sanitation.
