JUMP FROM BED
IN MORNING AND
DRINK HOT WATER
Open
sluices of system each morning and
wash away the poisonous, stagnant
matter, says authority.
HI
- T-jpajr-
glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of
limestone phosphate in it, drank each
morning before breakfast, keeps
us looking and feeling fit.
Life is noi merely to live, hut
to live well, eat well, digest well,
work well, sleep well, look well.
What a glorious condition to
attain, and yet how very easy it is
if one will only adopt the morning
inside bath.
Folks who are accustomed to
feel dull and heavy when they
arise, splitting headache, stuffy
from a cold, foul tongue, nasty
breath, acid stomach, can, instead,
feel as fresh as a daisy hy open
ing the sluices of the system each
morning and Hushing out the
whole of the internal poisonous
stagnant matter.
Kveryone, whether ailing, sick
or weli, should, each morning,
before breakfast, drink a glass
of real hot water with a teaspoon
ful of limestone phosphate in it
to wash from the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels the previous
day's indigestible waste, sour
bile ami poisonous toxins; thus
eleansing, sweetening and puri
fying the entire alimentary canal
before putting more food into
the stomach. The action of hot
water and limestone phosphate
on an empty stomach is wonder
fully invigorating. It cleans out
all the sour fermentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives tine
a splendid Appetite for breakfast.
While you are enjoying your
break l ast the water and phos
phate is quietly extracting a large
volume of water from the blood
and getting ready for a thorough
Hushing of all the inside organs.
The millions of peoje who
are bothered with constipation,
bilious spells, stomach trouble,
rheumatism; others who have
sallow skins, blood disorders and
sickly complexions are urged to
get a quarter pound of limestone
phosphate from the drug store,
which will cost but little, but is
sufficient to make anyone a pro
nouiu cd crank on the .subject of
internal sanitation.
