101 WATER THE
BEST LIVER AND
BOWEL MEDICINE
Says glass of hot water betore
breakfast washes poisons
from system.
Physicians the world over recom
niOTid the inside bath, claiming this is
of vastly more importance than out
side cleanliness, because the skin
pores do not absorb impurities into
the blood, causing ill health, while the
pores In the ten yards of bowels do.
Men and women are urged to drink
each morning, before breakfast a
glass of hot water with a teaspoonful
of limestone phosphate iA it, as a
harmless means of helping to wash
from the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels the previous day's indigestible
material, poisons, sour bile and toxins;
thus cleansing, sweetening and puri
fying the entire alimentary canal be
fore putting more food into the stom
ach.
Just as soap and hot water cleanse
and freshen the skin, so hot water and
limestone phosphate act on the ellm
lnatlve organs.
Those who wake up with bad
breath, coated tongue, nasty taste or
have a dull, aching head, sallow com
plexion, acid stomach-; others who are
subject to bilious attacks or consti
pation, should obtain a quarter pound
of limestone phosphate at the drug
store. This will cost very little but
Is sufficient to demonstrate the value
of Inside bathing. Those who con
tinue It each morning are assured of
pronounced results, both In regard to
health and appearance. Advertise
ment.

pounds, llis friends say he is the big- j
gest man in the country.
Until about three months ago Brin-|

entering the ranks of America's states- !
men.
Brinson has large cotton, lumber
and turpentine interests. He makes
his transactions by telephone, except
in instances where a customer has a
