SAYS HOT WATER | WASHES POISONS FROM THE LIVER I Everyone should drink hot water phosphate in It, before breakfast. iTo feel as fine as tho proverbia fiddle, wo must keep the liver washed clean, almost everj’ morning, to prevent its sponge-llko pores from clogging with indigestible material, sour bile and poisonous toxins,, says a noted physician. If you get headaches, it’s your liver. If you catch cold easily, it’s your liver. If you wake up with a bad taste, furred tongue, nasty breath or stomach becomes rancid, it’s your liver. Sallow skin, muddy complexion, watery eyes all denote livbr uneleanlincss.' Your liver is the most important, also the must abused and, neglected prgan of the body. Few know its function, or how to release the dammed-up body waste, bile and toxins. Most folks resprt to "violent calomel, which is a dangerous,' salivating chemical which cam.only be used occasionally because it accumulates in the tissues, also .attacks the bones. Every man and woman,' sick or well, should drink each morning before breakfast a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it, to wash from the liver and bowels the previous day's indigestible material, the poisons, sour bile and toxins; »thus cleansing, sweetening ( and freshening the entire alimentary] canal before putting more foodiinto, Ihe stomach. Limestone phosphate I does’ not’ strict the diet like calomel, because} it] can not salivate, for it is harmless andl you can eat rfS inexpensive and any pharmacist will sell“you a quarter! pound, which for a dem-' onstration of howjhot*water and limestone phosphate’ cleans^stimulates and freshens the liver,!,keeping you feeling fit day in and jiayXput.?" ~ OEfcIOCKAT ’ ,-\D> ' PA V
