MSflffi A 1@?I COMFUEHION .v/ Says we can't help but look better and feel better after an inside bath. \ To 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 fermentations and poisonous toxins before it is absorbed Into the blood. Just as coal, i when it burns, leaves behind a certain amount of incombustible material in the form of ashes, bo the food and drink taken each day leave in the alimentary organs a certain amount of Indigestible material, which if not v eliminated, form toxins and poisons which are then Bucked into the blood through the very ducts which are intended to sack 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 clearer and clearer, you are told to drink every morning upon arising, a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate In it, which is a harmless means of washings the waste materia} and toxins from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary tract,' mitfiner mnro fnnH fVla aMm.1 UC1UIO Uiv*v wvu *vvv v*?w wwm* ach. Men and women with sallow skins, liver spots, pimples or pallid complexion, also those who wake up with a coated tongue, bad taste, nasty breath, others who are bothered with headaches, bilious spells, acid stomach or constipation should begin this phos-; phated hot water drinking and are' assured of very pronounced results in one or two weeks. A quarter pound of limestone phosphate costs very little at the drug .store but is sufficient to demonstrate that just as soap and hot water cleanses, purifies and freshens the skin on the outside, so hot water and limestone phosphate act on the inside organs. We must always consider that internal sanitation is vastly more important than outside cleanliness, because the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, while the bowel pores do.

RED CROSS MEETING AT THE COURT HOUSE rs. ed Field Secretary Daniel Greatly Pleases With the Showing in Abbeas ville, as An audience of about a hundred !r" and fifty was present at the Court House Monday night'to hear the address of Mr. Royal Daniel, field secretary of the southeastern division of the Red Cross, with he^iquarters at Atlanta. * t a j ^ Not claiming to be an orator, Mr. ^ Daniel, who is a gentlemen of kind personality prematurely gray, impressed those present by his deep ^ seriousness and profound earnestness. He began by observing that the war had brought us closer together. This alone, in his opinion, 4-1, ~ rni.~ -.12 2.1 juatiiicu luc vvai. J. lie siLuaiiun is reminiscent of a soldier's experience in the trenches. A cootie had settled On his shoulder and was itchr ing fiercely. In his effort to pluck it off, he had to bow his head just to as a shell barely flew over him. That :e one movement saved his life. As ,t- he held the cootie in his hand, he at said, "Cootie, this war has brought e, us closer together. You taved my life and all I can do is to save jd yodrs." So the soldier put the cootie id back on fyis shoulder. ae at 4 ?? I i.vl 1 ; I I J of m I ALWAY nd ' re ut jHHHHHBH ut I : I __ Z p ' l t Uood r us A : busines Jn ck!

Now is the Prinfinj The P n-n _________ I Printing Tl i ' Mr. Daniel laid great stress upon Bi the extreme importance of each in- he dividual's help in the Red Cross work. He came to Abbeville with th deeply agitated feelings, he said, th For Hugo Wells, a New York friend fo whom he loved more than a brother, mi had just died at the front. Nor had ca he died deservedly on the battlefield, such as was appropriate to a man of*his red blood. But in an am- va bulance, back of the lines, while on ce the way to a base hospital, Hugo su Wells died for want of an ambulance re: pillow. They had none there and f0 the joltng caused him to bleed to stj death. This is the individual appeal. jn For any one of a hundred thousand to could make such a pillow. as The meeting Was not designed for be entertainment, as Mr. Daniel early hi! pointed out. He came to ask ques- th tions and to answer any that might | th. be proposed. The following infor- J ha mation was especially important: vi] 1. The Red Cross pays freight tr< on the goods sent out. Consequently, Red Cross wool is the cheapest in1 of that quality. Buy all your ma- w* teria^s from Red Cross headquarters tlc so as not to get an inferior article and so as not to cause competition ho against the Red Cross. ne 2. Send all goods to the Red th Cross prepaid. This allows the or- th ganization to get a two-thirds rate, vil rtnviTi nore than tl I : time to plac g. You'H neec ressani tat "Stands I MHDHHPU rm S AT YOUR SE jrinting i; is. That i nting the U{ jsmess > / lerever y ing that "st< .1 .1 lis for the freight may be sent to adquarters. 3. Officers must remember that: e fiscal year is July 1?June 30; e annual meeting should be on the urth Wednesday in October; and 2mbership must be based on the lendar year. Pleased With Spirit of Abbeville Mr. Daniel then proceeded to ask rious questions of the local offirs present. He was immediately rprised to learn that people here sponded numerously to the appeal r personal work. Usually, he ited, the number actually engaged making bandages dwindles down about ten nad stays there. He Kea now many canteen iadfes Ab-| virle had and could not conceal > astonishment when told that ere were eighty-three. "Why, at is twice as many as Savannah s," he said. "And I expect Abbe!le handles about twice as many jop trains as Savannah," Mr. Joel oi^se, head of the local Red Cross terjected. Mrs. Frank Nickles, 10 is captain of the Saturday sec>n, acquiesced in this. Mrs. Nickles was especially asked w the Canteen Ladies treated the gro troops. She admitted that ere was some hesitation in face of e problem at first. But the Abbelle ladies decided that the colored ni JL AA I vi \ * / <rvice in tc ? i s the d is the k / it will 1 \ Stand L I ou senc ands up" < he "lay-do :e your ord I lots of it tl i n QDann # T 99 Ip \ . people were our soldiers as much B as the whites and were likeT7ise I fighting for our homes, and, conse-J quently, they had refused them noth ^ ing. Mr. Daniel stated at this point that he had nowhere heard of South ern women refusing to give refresh- H ments to the negro troops. He I thought it a wonderful commentary on the southern temper. H "The spirit of this town thrills Hj me," he said. And after various H I questions of local members had ff been answered, the meeting wasH adjourned. * ,b| V NOTICE TO PUBLIC, v vH V Because of the extreme?dry v<^B V weather, the- city's water sup- \H| V ply is very low.
