Says Inside-bathing makes any- one look and feel clean, sweet and refreshed. ‘Wash yourself on the inside before breakfast like you do on the outside. This is vastly more important because | the skir pores do not absorb impuri- | ties into the blood, causing illness, whilé the bowel pores 'do. For every ounce of food and drink taken into the stomach, nearly an ounce of waste material must be carried out of the body. If this waste { material is not eliminated day by day ferments and generates poisons, gases and toxins which are absorbed or sucked into the blood stream, through the Iymph ducts which should suck only nounshment to sustain the body. A splendid health measure is to drink, before breakfast each 'day, a glass of real hot water with a tea- spoontul of limestofe phosphate in it, which is a harmless way to wash these poisons, gases and toxins from the stomach, liver,- kidneys and bowels; thus cleansing, sweetening and freshening th¢ entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. A quarter pound of limestone pho:- phate costs but very little at the drug store but is sufficient to make anyone an enthusiast on inside-bathing. Men and women who are accustomed . to wake up with a dull, aching head or have furred tongue, bad taste, nasty breath, sallow complexion, others who have bilious attacks, acid stomach or constipation, are assured of pro- nounced improvement in both heal!th , and appearance shortly. RAILRI]AI]S AND THEIR PART IN WAR: America Forced to Mobilize Mam- moth Traffic Resonrces This is the fourth of a series of articles on America’s war preparations secured from offi- cial government sources by the Connecticut State Council of Defense. They will be given out two each week for several weeks. These articles will be as complete and informative as military requirements will per- mit This has been called a railroad war. America’s preparation for such a war is a greater railread mileage than that of the entire continént of Eu- rope, and a railroad army of 1,760, 000 employes. Already the raidroads, mobilized under their War Board at ‘Washington, have won some impor- tant victories. Up to November 12 the number of carloads of construction materials and furnishings brought into the National Army cantonments was 79,124, To the same date building supplies used in the Guard camps amounted to 32,- 370 carloads; and 9,649 carloads had been ' shipped into the Aviation camps. A standard box car of 100,000 pounds capacity is forty feet and six inches long. If all the cars carrying material for these three classes of camps could be coupled together, the train that would result would extend from New York to Chicago and on out to Evanston, Illinois, That is a long train, sents a great burden added on to the task accomplished by the railroads i the record-breaking year of 1916. But the carrying of construction materials to the cantonments is only a small part of the total increase in traffic for 1917. After the camps had been built, the railroads had to move the men into them. They have also had to carry to 'the Atlantic seaboard, from all parts of the country, the men who have gone to France. Up to Novem- ber 19 they had carried a total of 1,300,000 soldiers to camps and ports of embarkation, And after the men have been moved, the railroads have to carry supplies to them. Every day 2,500 carloads of food and coal are being hauled to the National Guard and National Army camps alone. Up to November 12, a total of 17,- 000 carloads of freight had hcen han- dled for the Shipping Roard. This fisure represents a part of the traffic involved by the building of 1,400,- new ships. An enormously greater number of cars have rolled down to Atlantic and Gulf ports loaded with supplies and munitions for ships al- Teady built to carry to France and England and Italy. All modern . military and commer- cial activity is based on coal and oil—but especially on coal. No fig- ures reveal more clearly the extent of the increased effort put forth in the last half year by America generally and by the railroads in particular than the figures on the coal traffic. In the six months from May to October, inclusive, there were moved 150,000 more carloads of hard coal than in .the same months of 1916, and 751,000 more carloads of soft coal. Figuring an average coal car at a length of 33 feet the total in- crease for half of 1917 over the cor- responding half of 1916 may be rep- resented by a solid trainload of coal ex!ending from New York, through New Orleans, to Los Angeles and on up the Coast to Seattle and then East | again to a point in Montana, 30 miles East of Butte, The day is past when it was the good citizen’s duty to fight the rail- roads. The railroads are doing their best on a tremendous job. The citi- zen can do part of his bit by help- ing them in any small way that he can.
