Hopes Women Will Adopt This Habit As Well As Men

Glass of hot water each morning helps us look and feel clean, sweet, fresh.

Happy, bright, alert —vigorous and vivacious—a good clear skin; a natural, rosy complexion and freedom from illness are assured only by clean, healthy blood. If only every woman and likewise every man could realize the wonders of drinking phosphated hot water each morning, what a gratifying change would take place. Instead of the thousands of sickly, anaemic-looking men, women and girls with pasty or muddy complexions; instead of the multitudes of "nerve wrecks,” "rundowns,” "brain fags” and pessimists we should see a virile, optimistic throng of rosycheeked people everywhere. An inside bath is had by drinking, each morning before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and ten yards of bowels the previous day’s indigestible waste, sour fermentations and poisons, thus cleansing, sweetening and freshening the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. Those subject to sick headache, biliousness, nasty breath, rheumatism, colds; and particularly those who have a pallid, sallow complexion and who are constipated very often, are urged to obtain a quarter pound of limestone phosphate from any druggist or at the store which will cost but a trifle but is sufficient to demonstrate the quick and remarkable change in both health and appearance awaiting those who practice internal sanitation. We must remember that inside cleanliness 1 is more important than outside, because the skin does not absorb impurities to contaminate the blood, while the pores in the thirty feet of bowels do. —Adv.

The Theater a War Tonic.

“Can you Imagine the state the nerves of the country would ba in but for the necessary mind recreation provided by the theaters?” the London Chronicle asks in calling attention to the fact that the war has been prolonged for more than eighteen months and that the end is not yet in sight. “A weekly evening at one of the theaters,” it goes on, "is a safeguard against nervous breakdown. It is a tonic more effective than doctor’s medicine. All the senses are quickened, and Instead of depression we have alertness; optimism Instead of pessimism. Gladstone went to the theater for mind relief in a time of national strain; so did Abraham Lincoln.”

Sometimes ft is a man's cowardice that keeps him from getting in bad.

Such warning symptoms as sense of suffocation,hot flashes,headaches, backaches,dread of impending evil, timidity, sounds in the ears, palpitation of the heart, sparks before the eyes, irregularities, constipation, variable appetite, weakness and dizziness, should be heeded by middle-aged women.

Knowing the country, we can hardly take it seriously. .Our governments, however, dominion and provincial, are taking steps to expose the false statements that are being made, and thereby keep the channel open for continuing the stream of settlers that has been flowing to us for the past decade. —Advertisement.

STOP EATING’MEAT IF KIDNEYS OR BACK HURT

Take a Glass of Salts to Clean Kidney* If Bladder Bother# You— Meat Form* Urlo Add.

Eatlng meat regularly eventually produces kidney trouble In some form or other, says a well-known authority, because the uric acid in meat excites the kidneys, they become overworked; get sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of distress, particularly backache and misery in the. kidney region; rheumatic twinges, severe headaches, acid stomach, constipation, torpid liver, sleeplessness, bladder and uninary irritation. The moment your back hurts or kidneys aren’t acting right, or if bladder bothers you, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any good pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with llthia, and has been used for generations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity; also to neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder disorders. Jad Salts cannot injure anyone: makes a delightful effervescent lithlawater drink which millions of men and women take now and then to keep the kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus avoiding serious kidney disease. —Adv.

HIP DRAPERY PUZZLES

MATTER OF FASHION THAT IS MAKING WOMEN UNEASY. Little Need for Real Disquietude Over the Matter—lt May Safely Be Left to the Skill of the Dressmaker. What do the women think of the new styles for 1916? I have asked hundreds of them, and the only summing up that can ba made from the various answers is a decided anxiety

ENAMEL THE BUREAU DRAWER

Much Cleaner Than the Employment of Linings and Pads and Far More Dainty. Much is gained if, instead of making linings or pads for the bureau drawers, the drawers themselves are made dainty and ready for the receptacles of articles. First give the Inside as many coats of white paint as is necessary to give a clear white tonej and then a coat of white enamel. This gives a perfectly smooth surface, which is fresher than any other lining could be. The drawers look neat and attractive, and when cleaning is desired a simple wiping with a damp cloth produces perfect cleanliness. The same idea could be carried out with all shelves, cupboards and drawers in the house, whether for linen, china or kitchen utensils. They are more easily cared for than when arranged with other covers. This process makes a good substitute for the highly recommended glass shelves.

New Colors in Middies.

The middy for young girls has made more and more of a place for itself. Even the long and really ungraceful smock of last year has grown into a middy by appearing much shorter this year and without so much fullness, so no belt is necessary. Plain reseda green with white collars and cuffs, also the all-over pink or light blue are in the spring showings in one shop for $1.25, really lovely colors, and in another shop for the same price are broad striped ones, brown and white, black and white and green and white. The short smocks come in heavenly pastel shades, smocked in white and big white polka dots are embroidered on the collar. These cost $2.98. The real yearning of a tailor made girl goes to a white flannel middy —Norfolk—with plaits and wonderful pockets, and all beautifully tailored. It costs $5.

Makes Demand for Curves

The return of the distinctively marked waist was inevitable when once redingotes had been accepted by the average woman. The redingote, like the Louis XIV coat, is close fitting at bust and waist. It is so shaped that it molds the figure, and it does not look smart or attractive unless strongly marked curves are in evidence. A redingote demands a rounded bust and moderately rounded hips; the same may be said of Louis XIV coarts. And these are the .two most popular outer garments of the present season. A beautiful little Louis XIV coat which illustrates what has just been said was seen a short while ago. It was of stone gray material, and the lining was a rich chintz silk which showed deep orange and black flowers oh ah ivory ground. The big buttons were in mother of pearl. They were “knobby,” like all the mother of pearl buttons of the present hour. The basque of the coat was very full at the hem, but atthe waist the little garment was quite tight Immense patch pockets appeared on either side, and there were deep revers adorned with pearl buttons. This

ed by the growing acceptance of panniers and farthingales, and gathers and plaits over the hips. There is really not so much cause for anxiety as there seems to be on the surface. The American type — that is, the woman with the broad shoulders, long waistline and flattened hips need not worry about anytnlng In fashions; her slim hips solve all problems, for after all, the great battle of fashions during the centuries has been a question of whether or not you bulge out below the waist. ■ However, every woman cannot hold herself up as the American type. She has all the curves that she Is heir to, and diet, mental science and dancing cannot always reduce the curve that sor 1 * generations was considered woman’s chief beauty and is now considered her chief handicap. The reason that the women with curves need not worry about this incoming fashion for hip draperies which is firmly established already, is that the dressmakers have enough skill at their fingers’ ends to make the fashion becoming to them. Naturally, when the hips are extended, the jackets are short; and in the spring of 1916, their very shortness will be used as a way of distending the hip line. Not one of them hangs straight down to the waist; they are all fluted out to give the appearance of ruffs —a trick which allows the skirt drapery to expand, as it is meant to do. Here is Another important feature of the majority of the new coats; they hang open in front in order to show a great splash of barbaric color, placed beneath the front of the blouse at the waist line. When separate blouses are worn — not wash ones, but ornate ones —this effect is obtained through a wide belt that has this brilliant ornamentation in front. It is difficult to say whether this work is Asiatic, American, Indian or Russian. It is usually made of glass beads in barbaric colors with splashes of Chinese embroidery. Sometimes the entire ornament is Chinese. Some of these belts might have been worn by Genghis Khan.

Waists Are Large.

Waists are comfortably large, occk sionally fitted with snugness, but not really compressed. Collars offer wide variety. They are high all around, high in the back and of any one of a half dozen low cuts in front, medium low all around. A good many fichu arrangementsappear, but they are the becoming and very skillfully draped fichus that are not so trying as the demure surplice fichu of earlier days.

Sudden Death Caused by Disease of cAe Kidneys

The close connection between the heart and the kidneys is well known nowadays. When kidneys are diseased, arterial tension is Increased and the heart functions are attacked. When the kidneys no longer pour forth waste, uremic poisoning occurs and the person dies, and the cause is often given as heart disease, or disease of brain or lungs. It is a good insurance against such a risk to send 10 cents for- a large trial package of "Anuric” —the latest discovery' of Dr. Pierce. When you suffer from backache, frequent or scanty urine, rheumatic pains here or there, or that constant tired, worn-out feeling, get "Anuric” at the druggist It’s 37 times more potent than lithia, dissolves uric acid as hot water does sugar. ’ _

STRANGE SIGNS ON SHIPS

Have Little Meaning to the Uninitiated, But Are Plainly Understood by Sailors.

Strange signs frequently hang from ships which puzzle even dwellers in seaport towns to guess the meaning of. A basket slung from the mainmast head is a sailor’s sign to notify that the cargo has been loaded or discharged, as the case may be, and that the ship is ready to start on her next trip. This she cannot do until the usual board of trade formalities have been observed, and the ship’s papers, which, while a ship is in port, are deposited with the board of trade, have been returned to the captain. A generally mysterious emblem is a besom lashed to a mainmast or bridge railing. This is to signify that the vessel is for sale. Occasionally a dark blue stripe may be seen running fore and aft on a vessel; as a matter of fact, this Is a sign of recent bereavement. Blue is the sailor’s mourning, and the stripe of this color takes the place of the black margin or bqnd used by the landsmen as a notification of death.

Waste of Time.

“You say this naturalist has spent many years studying the monkey language?” "Yes. I understand he can almost converse with them." “Well, well." “You don’t seem much Impressed.” “To tell the truth, I’m not. I don’t see what a monkey could say to a human being that would be worth listening to.” Some people act as though they were afraid they might forget their troubles if they didn’t talk about them all the time. They once tried to shut a woman up in a lunatic asylum—but they say she kept on talking.

WIGS HOSTESS Won Her Guests to Posturn.

“Three great coffee drinkers were my old school friend and her two daughters. “They were always complaining and taking medicine. I determined to give them Postum instead of coffee when they visited me, so without saying anything to them about it, I made a big pot of Postum the first morning. "Before the meal was half over, each one passed up her cup to be refilled, remarking how fine the ‘coffee’ was. The mother asked for a third cup and inquired as to the brand of coffee I used. I didn’t answer her question just then, for I heard her say a while before that she didn’t like Postum unless it was more than half coffee. "After breakfast I told her that the ’coffee' she liked so well at breakfast was pure Postum, and the reason she liked it was because it was properly made. “I have been brought up from a nervous, wretched invalid, to a fine condition of physical health by leaving off coffee and using Postum. "I am doing all I can to help the world from coffee slavery to Postum freedom, and have earned the gratitude of many, many friends." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Postum comes in two forme: Postum Cereal—the original form — must be well boiled. 15c and 25c pkgs. Instant Postum —a soluble powderdissolves quickly in a cup of hot water, and, with cream and sugar. makes a delicious beverage Instantly. 30c and 50c tins. Both forms are equally delicious and cost about the same per cup. f “There’s a Beason” for Postum. —sold by Grocers.

After Grip Then— Spring Fever?

This is the time of year to look out for trouble! We feel weak—our blood seems hot —no appetite.—lt s time to clean house! This is when the blood is clogged and we suffer from what Is commonly called a cold. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery purifies the blood and entirely eradicates the poisons that breed and feed disease. Pure blood is essential to good health. The weak, run-down, debilitated condition which so many people experience is commonly the effect of imptire blood. “Medical Discovery” not only cleanses the blood of impurities, but increases the activity of the blood-making glands, and enrfchea the body with pure, rich blood.

Anything That Will Float.

In these times anything that can carry a cargo across the Atlantic is a potential gold mine. About three years ago the steamship Dunbolme burned ata New Jersey pier.
