PROPER FOOD FOR WEAK STOM
ACHS The proper food for one man may be
all wrong for another. Every on?
should adopt a diet suited to his age
and occupation. Those who have
weak stomachs need to be especially
masticate their food throoughly. It is
also important that they keep their
bowels regular. When they become
constipated or when they feel dull and
stupid after eating, they should take
Chamberlain's Tablets to strengthen
the stomach and move the bowels. Thev
V
are easy to take and pleasant in effect.

TO BLEACH THE SKIN
Atlanta, Ga. Says that recent tests
have proven without doubt that swar

light by a new treatment recently dis
covered by a man in Atlanta. Just ask
your druggist for Cocotone Skin White

mazed at its wonderful effect. Rid your
face of that awful dark color or greasy
appearance in a few minutes. It costs
so little that you can't afford to be
without it. Just think how much pret

skin gone and new soft, light skin in
its place. Men and women today must
care for thei rcomplexions to enter so
ciety. If your druggist will not supply you
with Cocotone Skin Whitener, send 25c
for a large package to Cocotone Co.,

Headache of any kind, is caused by
autointoxication which, means self
poisoning. Live: 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, called
headache. You become nervous, de
spondent, sick, feverish and miserable,
your meals sour and almost nauseate
you. Then you resort to acetanilide,
aspirin or the bromides which tempor
arily relieve but do not rid the blood of
these irritating toxins.
A glass of hot water with a teaspoon
ful of limestone phosphate in it, drank
before breakfast for awhile, will not
only wash these poisons from your sys
tem 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 in
expensive, harmless as sugar, and al
most 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, biliousness, constipation
or sour, acid stomach, begin the phos
phated hot water cure to rid your
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 oi
know a miserable moment.
