Not a Bite of
 Breakfast Until
 You Drink Water
Says a glass of hot water and phosphate prevents illness ' and keeps us, fit.

Just as coal, when it burns, leaves behind a certain amount of incom- bustible material in the form of ash es. so the food and drink taken day after day leaves in the alimentary canal a certain amount of indiges- tfble material, which if not com pletely eliminated from the system each day, becomes food for the mil lions of bacteria which infest the bowels. From this mass of left over waste, toxins and ptomain like poisons are formed and tucked into the blood.
 Men and women who can't get feeling right must begin to take in side baths. Before eating breakfast each morning drink a glass of real hot water with teaspoonful Of limestone phosphate in it to wash out of the thirty feet of bowels the previous days accumulation of pois- ons and toxins and to keep the en- tire aalimentary canal clean, pure hfd fresh. stIs i.4 q r
 Those who are subject to sick heatlaches. colds, bilfousness,. con sstipation, others who wake up with bad taste. foul breath, backache rheumatic stiffness. or have sour gassy stomach after smeals. are urg- ed to get quarter pound of lime stone phosphate from the drug store and begin practicing internal sani- tation. This will cost very little but is sufficient to make anyone an enthusiast on the subject.
 Remember inside bathing is more important than outside bathing, be cause the skin pores do not absorb Impurities into the blood. causing poor health. while the bowel pores do.

The Belgian coal mines are now turn
ing out about 80 per cent of the nor
NAL production. They supply nearly
all the coal needed for the Belgian
industries, while some $4,000 tons of
coal a month are exported to France.
Then the great glass industry of the
country, which before the war gave
work to many thousands, is rapidly
regaining its former prosperity, and
only quite recently the French minis
try of reconstruction gave an order
to a single Belgian firm for 1000, 900
square meters of window panes, to be
utilized in the devastated regions. The
result of all this is that whereas. at
the time of the signing of the arms
tice, the French franc was worth Ito
or even 1.15 francs in Belgium, it is
now worth 90 centimes. Belgium
moreover, is very far from combining
her efforts TO France. Great Britain Is
already q considerable importer of
Belgian goods, while the United States
recently placed an order in Belgium
for more than 100000, 600 francs worth
of glassware.
