FOR RENT FIRST AERIAL MAIL IN 1803 To President Jefferson Really Belongs the Honor of Instituting” Some- thing New in Message Line. While all unite in praise of Post- master General Burleson in inaugu- rating an aerial mail service between New York and Washington, Americans should not make the mistake of cred- iting the present administration with the first aerial mail service between the two cities. As a matter of faét, that honor falls to ‘the administration of Thomas Jef- ferson more than a bundred years ago. It all attended the transmission of the deeds of the Louisiana purchase to France. Mr. Jefferson, of course, was very . anxious about the matter, and after the deeds had been sent from Wash- ington to Paris, and the time had come when “the vessel bearing the signed deeds back to this country was due, Mr. Jefferson, unable to withhold lm- patience, sent some carrier pigeons to New York to be held until the vessel arrived and then released, bearing "word of the fact of their arrival. This was done, and accordingly the first aerial mail service dates back not to this spring but to the year 1803. Pockets for the Government.

(et the Habit of Drinking Hot Water Befpre Breakfast Says we can’t look or feel right with the system full of poisons. Millions of folks bathe internally now instead*of loading their system with drugs. “What’s an inside bath?” you say. Well, it is guaranteed to perform miracles if you could believe these hot water enthusiasts. There are vast numbers of men and women who, immediately upon arising in the morning, drink a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of lime- stone phosphate in it. This is a very excellent health measure. It is in- tended to flush the stomach, liver, kidneys and the thirty feet of intes- tines of the previous day’s waste, sour bile and indigestible material left over in the body which if not elimin- ated every day, become food for the millions of bacteria which infest the bowels, the quick result is poisons and toxins which are then absorbed into the blood causing headache, bilious attacks, foul breath, bad taste, colds, stomach trouble, kidney misery, sleep- lessness, impure blood and all sorts of ailments. People who feel good one day and badly the next, but who simply can not get feeling right are urged to obtain a quarter pound of limestone phosphate at the drug store. This will cost very little but is sufficient to make anyone a real crank on the subject of internal sanitation. Just as soap and hot water act on the skin, cleansing, sweetening and freshening, so limestone phosphate and hot water act on the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels. It is vast- 1y more important to bathe on thel inside than on the outside, because the skin pores do not absorb impuri- ties into the blood, while the bowel WANTED—Two painters.
