Happy, bright, alert—vigorous and vivacious—a good clear skin; a nat ural, rosy complexion and freedom from illness arc assured only by clean, healthy blood, if only every woman and likewise every man could realize the wonders of the morning inside bath, what a gratifying change would take place. Instead ol tlie thousands of sick ly., 41 paeitvjc-looking men, women and girls with pasty or muddy com plexions: instead of the multitudes of "nerve wrecks," "rundowns," "brain fags" and pessimists we should see a virile, optimistic throng of rosy-checked people everywhere. An inside bath is had by drinking, each morning before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a tea spoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and ten yards of bowels the previous day's indigestible waste, sour fermentations and poisons, thus cleansing, sweetening and freshen ing the entire alimentary canal be fore putting more food into the stomach.

We must remember that inside cleanliness is more important than outside, because the skin does not absorb impurities to contaminate the blood, while the pores in the thirty feet of bowels do.—Adv.

McCANN The waste uloiu- of a little group of seven food products—wheat, corn, milk, potutoes, barley, rye ami rice— If conserved, as it should be, would support the entire population of the United States—Rcud the ligures which show that a food shortage ean be made impossible in America— liaise your voice and act. In estimating the quantity of food which can be rescued from the waste pots of the United States by a policy of reconstruction and conservation inspired by war, we strike a single detail which two and a half years ago seemed to astonish the world. At that time messages smuggled out of Germany acquainted us with the fact that Germany's war bread was made of a combination of 85 per cent, whole meal (wheat, barley or rye) and 15 per cent, whole potatoes, skins anS all. That the food value of the potato skin should be recognized by the Ger mans is not remarkable, for the rea son that in the treatment of rheu matism, eczema, uric acid conditions, and many blood disorders the Ger mans have been among the very first to recognize and prescribe the virtues of alkaline waters. Mineral springs have been trans ferred in bottles from Germany all over the world, only for the reason that in the treatment of many dis eases due to the consumption of too much food of the right kind, alka line waters have demonstrated their great value. The Germans knew that the outer layers of the potato contain alkaline solubles of great value and that dur ing times of easy prosperity and thoughtless luxury these alkalines are squandered by a system of pre paring the raw potato which robs it, through the thick peels removed prior to boiling or frying, of 25 per cent, of its gross weight. Germany's war bread immediately increased the supply of available po tatoes 25 per cent, by putting an end to the 25 per cent, waste. In the United States we produce annually nearly 400,000.000 bushels of potatoes. The German system of utilizing the whole potato if applied to the United States would save from the garbage can nearly 100,000,000 bushels of potatoes annually, or one bushel for every man, woman, and child in the country. Thousands of American citizens are already acquainted with the vir tues of the baked potato jacket. When steamed in a double boiler the Remedy isn't just a purgative. Quite the contrary.

A CLEAR COMPLEXION Ruddy Cheeks—Sparkling Eyes —Most Women Can Have Says Dr. Edwards, a Well-Known Ohio Physician Dr. F. M. Edwards for 17 years treated scores of women for liver and bowel ailments. During these years he gave to his patients a prescription made of a few well-known vegetable ingredi ents mixed with olive oil, naming them Dr. Ldwards' Olive Tablets, you will know them by their olive color. These tablets are wonder-workers on the liver and bowels, which cause a normal action, carrying off the waste and poisonous matter in one's system. If you have a pale face, sallow look, dull eyes, pimples, coated tongue, head ache?, a listless, no-good feeling, all out of sorts, inactive bowels, you take one of Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets nightly for a time and note the pleasing results. Thousands of women as well as men take Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets—the successful substitute for calomel—now and then just.to keep in the pink of condition, 10c and 25c per box.

Baking and steaming, as far as potatoes are concerned, recommend themselves to war's attention. Of barley we produce annually nearly 200,000,000 bushels. This at once goes through the pearling or refining process, which gives us our "pearled" barley or denatured barley of the market place and robs us of 20 per cent, or 20,000,000 bushels. If one should say that this is not so, for a large quantity of our barley crop is malted for brewing purposes, the situation only becomes worse and the loss, as far as human food is concerned, is not only doubled but trebled. We would have at least twenty five pounds of barley (or every man, woman, and child more than we al ready have if we reformed our barley milling system. Of rye we produce annually 40,- 000,000 bushels, most of which goes into whisky. If we do to whisky In war time what ther Russians did to vodka we will save for every man, woman, and child another unit of twenty-five pounds of one of the best brc'ad grains that ever came from the soil. We really know nothing of rye bread in \the United States. The silly, anaemic thing that is sold in our bakeshops as rye bread is not rye at all. It consists of 90 per cent, patent flour and 10 per cent, rye flour. With the characteristic flavor and virtue of neither wheat nor rye to recommend it, it is not wonderful that its color less personality appeals to no one. Of rice we produce, approximately 30,000,000 bushels, a large part of which finds its way into beer. All the rest is polished. By consuming nat ural brown rice we save 20 per cent, of the grain, including its most in dispensable elements. This saving represents 6,000,000 bushels or four pounds per person. and all other food out of consideration, we find that the economy system now practised in France and Germany would yield for every man, woman and child in America over and above the food we already have: 196 pounds whole wheat meal. 85 pounds whole eornmeal. 4 5 pounds mammala.' 60 pounds potatoes. 25 pounds unpearled barley. 25 pounds whole rye. 4 pounds natural brown rice. Total 440 pounds. Let us examine the meaning of these figures. Modern dietitians tell us that the adult needs approximate ly 3,000 food calories a day. The calorie value of the saved foods enu merated above, estimated in pounds is—whole wheat meat 1,628, whole eornmeal 1,620, mammala 3,680, po tatoes 378, unpearled barley 1,603, whole rye meal, 1,626, natural brown rice, 1,600. If you will take paper and pencil and figure the calorie value of the 440 pounds of whole unprocessed foods tabulated above you will find that they will yield 721,988 calories. This amount, not taking into consid eration'thefact that infants and chil dren require much less, will supply all the needs of 100,000,000 adults for 240 2-3 days. If will take into consideration the fact that a large proportion of the population of the United States con sists of old people and very young people whose calorie requirements range from 500 to 2,000 a day, it can be readily seen that the saving of the seven foods enumerated will yield ex actly enough, even though all other foods had no existence, to nourish the entire population of the United States for an entire year. It will be seen also that the foods considered here are complete and adequate foods containing every element necessary to the mainten ance of life and health. This means that the food resources of the United States are simply pro digious. If the waste by-products of seven foods of the hundred available are alone sufficient to support our national life, what is there to justify alarm? Food famine nor any of the rideous consequences that lift up their heads- from such a nightmare will be impossible if we ACT! The trouble is that we do not know the United States, and doubtless never will until the consideration of serious things such as war makes us look within. Use McNeil's Pain Exterminator.— j Adv.
