Bellamy, Druggist YOSJ BESIEE A 1' Says wo can't help !ut look better and feel betteq after an Inside bath. Te look one's best and feel one's best is to enjoy an inside bath each morning to flush from the system the previous day's waste, sour fermen tations and poisonous toxins before it is absorbed into the blood. Just as coal, when it burns, leaves behind ja. certain amount of incombustible ma terial in the form of ashes, so the food and drink taken each day leave in the alimentary organs a certain amount of indigestible material, which if not eliminated, form tox'ns and poisons which are then sucked into the blood through the very ducts which are intended to suck in ' only nourishment to sustain the body. If you want to see the glow of healthy bloom in your cheeks, to see your skin get plearer and clearer you are told to drink every morning upon arising, a glass of hot vater with a teaspoonful of limestone phos phate in it, which is a harmless means of washing the waste material and toxins from the stomach, livr, kidneys and bowels, before putting more food into the stomach. Men and women with sallow skins, liver spots, pimples or pallid com plexion, are those who wake up with a coated tongue, bad taste, nasty breath, others who are bothered with headaches, bilious spells, acid stom ach or constipation should begin this phosphated hot water drinking. . A quarter pound of limestonephos phate costs very little at the drug store but is sufficient to demonstrate that -just-as -saap . and hot water cleanses, purines and freshens the skin on the outside, so hot water and limestoi phosphate act on the in side organs.-r-Ady.

THE WILMINGTON DISPATCH. -TUESDAY AFTERNOON, APRIL W, I9f8. Half Dozen Dogs Executed Yesterday. Eleven Reclaimed. The first execution of the owner less element of the city's canine pop ulation occurred today when a half dozen "scrubby" little dogs were knocked in the head with an ordi nary axe and their lifeless bodies tossed into the incinerator.

Outlined Exist Herei 1 ' iA - : Business men generally Ire .inclined to think that conditions can be im proved as regards alleged illegal sales of liquor made here and members of the community welfare committee men" who are intensely interested in the welfare of' visiting soldiers share this opinion, but none of them are willing to admit that conditions are anything like as bad as some would have the country at large believe, and all are satisfied that with a little co operation from Colonel A. W. Chase, Fort Caswell's commandant, that the city can be made safe for the soldiers and that they will not be obliged to forego the. pleasure of their: week-end visits, unless Colonel Chase is deter mined to keep them away. Colonel Chase's letter, which has resulted in a lot of unfavorable adver tising for the city and which is not reproduced because of this fact, is to be acted upon by the executive com mute 6 of the Chamber of Commei ! The matter was discussed at the Tuesday noon meeting of the mem bership of the community welfare committee and while it is understood that the Colonel cannot send a pro HAVE con TO ARM EES E PARADE PAGE SEVEN.

Music will be furnished by the - post band and there will be 300 regulars from the fort in the line of march. The object of the central and subsidiary committees is to make the parade one of the most successful ever at tempted in Wilmington. The com mittee as constituted are: Liberty Loan Feature Mrs. M. L. Stover and Mr. Fred W. Dick. Red Cross Mrs. Lyman Delano and Miss Hale. Junior Red Cross Mrs. A. H. Har iss. Lodges Messrs. 'W. E. Perdew, C. E. Bethea. . Civic Floats Messrs. T. R. Ames and J. M.

As one member of the committee expressed it, suppose Wil mington goes ahead with her clean up and succeeds in ridding the city of all bootleggers, and that permis sion is re-granted the soldiers to visit here, and then conditions gradually drift back to the old rut and the priv ilege of the men coming here is again denied. Wilmington w411 have been given a black eye alKover the coun try in fact, the city will have been made the goat, and we are no better off than in the beginning. What the average business man believes is best is a little co-operation on the part oj local and military authorities, and when this is had that the situation will have been completely remedied. Business men are frank to say that they do t believe uch conditions as. outlined exist. If there is anything wrong they are willing to lend every assistance in cleaning up these con ditions, but they are opposed to ad vertising of this nature unless it is justified and even . then they are inclined to think that bigger results can be accomplished without adver tising to the four corners of the world what is transpiring within the corpo rate limits of the town of Wilming ton. Men who have been in the various cantonment cities say that conditions here as they see them are not even comparable to conditions elsewhere, and while they have the best inter ests of the soldier at heart they real ize the harm that is being done the city. Statements of Mr. Johnstone, rep resenting the War Department, to the effect that conferences were had with the various State, county and city au thorities elicited the statement from the sheriff's that members of his force had not had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Johnsone, and that they had not been called into any conference look ing toward cleaning up the alleged evils that exist. All are agreed that the city should be kept clean; Wilmington wants the soldiers to visit here, and Wilmington will do everything in her power to entertain them while they are in the city, but business men are ,v4ery much opposed to the form of advertising the city is getting especially at a time when every effort is being bend ed to locate shipyards here and which will result in an influx of -citizens.

"The women of France have so much more to fight for than the men" said Dr. Esther Clawson Lovejoy, who re cently returned after spending months of arduous repatriate work at Evian, to a conference of Red,Cross workers in Wilmington yesterday. The words fraught with a meaning that only first hand observation and actual experience could give stirred the souls of her hear ers as perhaps they had not been be fore. "A man can only die," she explained, "but those women many of them, must become the wards of the men they, hate and mothers of children who may be made to fight against their own land. To die is easy compared to that." "The boys of 14 and over are kept by the Germans to help in the war against their native land, the speaker declared. The girls of 1 6 and over are kept also. The girls can become the mothers of a Hun who can fight against her own land. Mother, love is stronger than love for country or anything else in the whole world. A mother will give all for her children. Men cannot be conquered but women can be through their mother instinct. The Germans know this. "Whv do they keep these girls? They doni: sen3 them back, is is to breed a German army. "When the women return to France after having been in the hands of Ger mans, they experience a strange inde scribable joy when they reach their na tive land again. It is a joy unlike any thing that people in America have known. They have escaped from an unspeakable tragedy. They sing the 'Marseillaise' with their souls in their voices. No one can look at them with out thinking of them as blessed martyrs. TKey care nothing for worldly posses sions. They have given, their all for their country, and they have returned. "They speak of their boys who have been killed with a feeling of pride with their Jieads raised high, with a serene happiness, ' But for the girls of i 6 and overwho have been left behind, they have only, a look of despair, a feeling of indescribable pain."
