Hot Water for | Sick Headaches 1 Tells why everyone should drink I hot water with phosphate in it before breakfast. Headache of any kind, is caused by auto-intoxication—which means self- poisoning. Liver and bowel poisons called toxins, sucked into the blood, through the lymph ducts, excite the heart which pumps the blood so fast that it congests in the smaller arteries and veins of the head producing vio- lent, throbbing pain and distress, call- ed headache. You become nervous, despondent, sick, feverish and miser- able, your meals sour and almost nauseate you. Then you resort to acetanilide, aspirin or the bromides which temporarily relieve but do not rid the blood of these irritating toxins. A glass of hot water with a tea- spoonful of limestone phosphate in it, drank before breakfast for awhile, will not only wash these poisons from your system and cure you of headache but will cleanse, purify and freshen the entire alimentary canal. Ask your pharmacist for a quarter pound of limestone phosphate. It is inexpensive, harmless as sugar, and almost tasteless, except for a sourish twinge which is not unpleasant. If you aren’t feeling your best, if tongue is coated or you wake up with bad taste, foul breath or have colds, indigestion, bilousness, constipation or sour, acid stomach, begin the phosphated hot water cure to rid vour system of toxins and poisons. Results are quick and it is claimed that those who continue to flush out the stomach, liver and bowels every morning never have any headache or know a miserable moment. o — is “Sterling purity” —there are six more in Sterding Gum f= T STONINGTON Frank Hogan and Frank McGee Held in $600 Bail for Breaking and Enter- ing a Freight Car—Report of Visiting Nurse.
