If you are accustomed to wake up
with a coated tongue, foul breath -or
a dull, dizzy headache; or, if your
meals sour and turn into gas and acids,
you have a real surprise awaiting you.
Tomorrow morning, immediately up-
on arising, drink a glass of hot water
with a teaspoonful of limestone phos-
phate in it. 'This is intended to first
neutralize and then wash out of your
stomach, liver, kidneys and thirty feet
of intestines all the indigestible waste,
poisons, sour bile and toxins, thus
cleansing, sweetening and purifying
the entire alimentary canal.
Those subject to sick headaches,
backache, biiious attacks, constipation
or any form of stomach trouble, are
urged to get a quarter pound of lime-
stone phosphate from the drug store
and begin enjoying this morning in-
side bath. It is said that men and wo-
men, who try’ this become enthusiastic
and keep it up daily. It is a splendid
health measure for it is more import-
ant to kebp clean and pure on the in-
side than on the outside, because the
skin pores do not absorb impurities
into the blood, causing disease, while
the bowel pores do.
The principle of bathing inside Is
not new, as millions of people prac-
tice it. Jus’ as hot water anq soap
cleanse, purify and freshen the skin
so hot water and a teaspoonful of
limestone phosphate act on the stom-
ach, liver, kidneys and bowels. Lime-
stone phosphate is an inexpensive
white powder and almost tasteless.
