IfilR HUT WATER BEFORE BREAKFAST every mm Hopes every man and woman here will adopt this splendid health habit. Says a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it washes poisons from system, and makes one feel clean, sweet and fresh. 1 Why is man and woman, half the time, feeling nervous, despon dent, worried; some days head achy, dull and unstrung; some days really incapacitated by ill ness. If we all would practice the drinking of phosphated hot water before breakfast, what a gratify ing change would take place. In stead of thousands of half-sick, anaemic-looking souls with pasty, muddy complexions we should see crowds of happy, healthy, rosy cheeked people everywhere. The reason is that the human system does not rid itself each day of all the waste it accumulates under our present 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 it ferments and forms ptomaine-like poisons in the bowels which are absorbed into the blood. Just as necessary as it is to clean the ashes from the furnace each day, before the lire will burn bright and hot, so we must each morning clear the inside organs of the previous day's accumula tion of indigestible waste and body toxins. Men and women, whether sick or well, are advised to drink each morning, before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of lime stone phosphate in it, as a harm less means of washing out ofi the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the indigestible material, waste, sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and puri fying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. Millions of people who had their turn at constipation, bilious attacks, acid stomach, sick head aches, rheumatism, lumbago, nervous days and sleepless nights have become real cranks about the morning-inside bath. Al qua iter pound of limestone phos phate will not cost much at the drug store, but is sufficient to demonstrate to anyone its cleans ing sweetening and freshening effect upon the system. Hacon.
