DRINK HOT WATER
IF YOU DESIRE A
ROSY COMIPLEXION
Says we can't help but look
better and feel better
after an inside bath.

To look ones best and feel ones best
is to enjoy an inside bath each morn
ing to flush from the system the pre-
vious days waste, sour fermentations
and poisonous toxins before it is abb
sorbed into the blood Just as COAL
when it burns, leaves behind a GER
tain amount of incombustible material
in the form of ashes, so the food and
drink taken each day leave in the ALI
mentary organs a certain amount OF
indigestible material, which if not
eliminated, form toxins and poisOnS
which are then sucked into the blood
through the very ducts which are in
tended to suck in only nourishment
to sustain the body.
If you want to see the glow OF
healthy bloom in your cheeks, to see
your skin get clearer and clearer, you
are told to drink every morning upon
arising, a glass of hot water with a
teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in
it, which is harmless means of wash
ings the waste material and toxins
from the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels, thus cleansing, sweetening and
purifying the entire alimentary tract,
before putting more food into the stom-;
ach.
Men and women with sallow skins,
liver spots, pimples or pallid COM
plexion, also those who wake up with
a coated tongue, bad taste, nasty
breath, others who are bothered with
headaches, bilious spells, acid stomach
or constipation should begin this phos-
phated hot water drinking and are
assured of very pronounced results in
one or two weeks.
A quarter pound of limestone phos-
phate costs very little at the drug
store but is sufficient to demonstrate
that just as soap and hot water
cleanses, purifies and freshens the
skin on the outside, so hot water and
limestone phosphate act on the inside
organs We must always consider that
internal sanitation is vastly more I'M
portant than outside cleanliness, pc
cause the skin pores do not absorb
impurities into the blood, while tne
bowel pores do.

CITY ASSESSORS
BOOSTS VALUES
lOTO2OPERCENT

It was stated today by members OF
the board of city tax assessors that
increases of from 10 to 20 per cent.
in practically all of the property
values returned for taxation in the
city mad been made for this year
The raises were made to "meet the
exigencies of the city," it was said.
The board has finished going through
the returns and is serving notices on
all property owners whose valuations
have been increased to give them an
opportunity to come before the board
fora diustment, if the figures fixed
bv the board are not accepted as fair
and just.
1t was stated that, although a num-
Der of minor adjustments had been
made, only one notice of arbitration
has been filed, that coming from JUS
tice Of the Peace W. T. McMath and
reaching the board today. In his
letter to the board Mr.. McMath, who
owns several pieces of city property
stated that the boards figures did
not please him, and that he ap-
pointed C. l. Brady as his arbitrator
The board instructed City Clerk Eld,
ridge to inform Mr. McMath that il
would accept Mr.. Brady as the city:
arbitrator also, and leave the entire
matter up to him, being perfectly
willing to abide by his decision.
Property owners affected have ter
days in which to appeal from the find
ings of the assessors after receiving
notice, and therefore it will proba
bly, be two weeks before the cit!
books are finally closed and go t.
the city clerk for compiling of th'
! digest.

"For years I've suffered awful pains in
my back from deranged kidneys. Some
times I'd have to get up five or six times
during the night. | also had headaches
and was badly cOnstipated, and my food
seemed to ferment in my stomach and
form sour gas, which caused much I'M
easiness and distress. l was very dizzy
at times and had about lost my appetite
l had tried many different medicines, but
none helped me- and I'd given up ali
hope of ever getting well again. | heard
so much about Dreco / bought bottle,
and right from the start it did me good.
1t soothed my stomach and stopped the
gas: put a stop to the constipation and

IN nearly every line production has been
increased on account Of the war. The
u hardest job ahead is to find market III
peace times for what those factories turn out
Money is made-not in manufacturing but
in selling. Yet selling seldom receives the
attention it deserves.
The number of factories manufacturer can
build the profit he can earn are limited by
the amount of merchandise for which he can
find a profitable market.
If demand can be kept ahead of production,
profitable market is sure And the one way to
keep demand ahead of production by adver-
tising y teaching the public to use more of
your goods.
In the past the South has bent her energies on
manufacturing The marketing of her prod
uctS were largely left to others who took the
raw materials and staples and converted
them into Specialties, trade-marked, adver-
tised and sold them And invariably, it is the
selling gofspecialtiest that pays the wide margin
of profit and the selling of staples that pays
the slim.
Greater profits = keeping conditions in our
hands instead of on them-depend upon our
marketing our goods as we'll as upon our max
ing them.
The South'8 cotton goods should be known by
brand-names in Detroit just as. we know and
buy the various makes of automobiles pre-
duced by the citizens Of that enterprisir3
Michigan city.
Lumber, of which the South IS the Nations
greatest possessor, will be needed for recon
struction and the merits Of our various woods
should be convincingly told by advertising.
The South is the greatest fat-producng sec
tion@os America. In the vegetable oils from
her COGton-Seed, peanuts and SOY beans she
produces more fat than all the dairy cows of
America-more fat than all the hogs Slaught-
cred in year More Southern-made and
marketed compound lardS and salad oils
would bring additional millions into Dixie

Good Way to Clean Pioe.

The following is one of the simplest
methods of cleaning a tOba co pipe :
Cut one-half inch from the end of an
ordinary cork and fit it tightly into the
bowl Of the pipe. Then with a knife
cut hole through the cork wide
enough to admit the nozzle of a water
tap with little pressure; turn on
the water gently until the flow through
the stem is sufficiently strong, and let
it run until the pipe is cleaned.

The Hardest Job I'm Every Business

Cane syrup8, coffec8 and all the other epi-
curean delights for which the South is famed
would find bigger demand if backed by ade-
quate advertising. And such demand would
automatically fix profitable price.
Marketing our products as we'll as making
them would furnish work for the hands and
brains of our returning sons - provide room
for the taleSt ambition and stop the emigra-
ton to the North and West of the talented
and ambitious.
There was time when we could sell the
merchant and let him push the goods. But to-
day the hardware, grocery and drug stores
will carry from ,oooto &c, 900 different items
Pushing anyone is impossible
Wise manufacturers are marking their goods
so that they can be recognized - telling the
public about their merits and inducing the
folks to pull them off of the shelves. And in
this respect, at least, an ounce OF pull IS
worth pound of push,
The advertising agencies of the South have
had years Of experience in advertising and
marketing many commodities. They know
the methods that have proved successful be-
cause their whole time is engroSSed with the
problems of selling
Their contact with leading manufacturers in
many lines has made them intimate with
various methods of winning trade methods
of securing distribution = fighting substitu-
ton 1t is their business to know how bust
ness is being built
Their services cost nothing. They are paid
commission by the publishers to make adver-
tiSing profitable to the manufacturer. 1t will
be revelation to many business men to know
the varied forms of assistance these agencies
can render-information on markets, con-
tainer8, trademark law, distribution methods,
dealer cooperation, service in preparing
booklets, copy-wrting and real information
on the value of different classes of advertising
media.
