GLASS OF WATER BEFORE YOU EAT ANY BREAKFAST Wash Polson From System Each Morning and Feel Fresh ! As a Daisy, Bvery day you clean the house you live in to get rid of the dust and dirt which collected through the previous day. Your body, the house your soul lives in, also beconfbs fll- ed up each twenty-four hours with all manner of filth and poison. If only every woman and Tan could realize the wonders of drinking phos- phated hot water, what a gratifying change would take place. Instead of the thousands of sick- ly, anaemic-looking men, women and girls with pasty or muddy complex- . fons; instead of the muititndes . of "nerve wrecks," "run downs," "brain fags' and pessimists we should see a virile, optimistic throng of rosy- cheeked people everywhere, Everyone, whether sick or well, should drink each morning before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phos- phate in it to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and ten yards of bow- els the previous day's indigestible waste, sour fermentations and pol- sons, thus cleansing, sweetening and freshening the entire alimentary ca- nal before putting more food into the stomach. Those subject to sick headache, billousness, nasty breath, rheuma- tism, colds; and particularly those who have a pallid, sallow complex- fon and who are constipated very often, are urged to obtain a quarter pound of limestone phosphute at the drug store, which will cost but a trifle but is sufficient to de ronstrate the quick and remarkable change in both health and appearance await ing those who practice internal sani- tation. We must remember that in- side cleanliness is more important than outside, because the skin dues not absorb impurities to contaminate the blood, while the pores in the thirty feet of bowels do. A SPLENDID WAY TO REDUCE ONE'S WEIGHT There is, perhaps, no one thing that shows the passing of our youth so much as the horrible tendency of some of us to put on too much weight after we have reached the age of 25 or 30. However young our face may appear, our figures "give us away" The cause of this over-stoutness is that our stomachs convert the food we eat into fat because there is not enough oxygen In the blood to produce a pro- per combustion to oy the fatty To reduce your weight go to a good Tr t An t oll of orllene n capsule form, ta each meal.

The next week or two of the aliready waning London season | were full of social engagements. And | Society was the life-blood of her. | London called her. In Blackport she | was like a fish out of water, a fair | flower doomed to a dark cellar. "My dear Glare," she had sald, "you really are very selfish and incom: siderate. It isn't that I have suddenly | taken it into my head to run away | to town. You forget that I came up | here from London, and I really must | get back. 1 ought to have gone this | morning. You must see that I can- not treat people like this." But all the. time she was thinking | of that extraordinary letter she had | received from Van Ost and its totally | inexplicable and unquestionably per emptory demand that she should meet | him at the Charing Cross Post Office | at half-past three to-morrow afternoon. | Monk had sighed heavily. He was | always a little apologetic after mak- | ing any demand of Theodora, always | B fictie conscious of his immense in- feriority to his lovely wife. "Forgive me, my darling," he said, | taking her hand and kissing it and | then caressing it as he might a child's. "You kmow, my little love, that I| don't want to make it awkward for | you or in any way interfere with my | 's life and pleasure.

I always feel in the | way. Please be a good boy and make | me happy and let me go. You'll make me miserable if 1 think you | wanted me to stay all the time. You | know that, don't you?" Bhe gave him | one of those wonderful smiles that | always reduced him to a state of | fumble submission. "Of course, I hate to go away and leave you, dear old | Glare," she went on, and there was a | soft cooing note of caress in her Jovely voice. It was the surest wea-| pon in her armory. Glare Monk succumbed. So, early the next morning Theodore and her maid, with 'a considerable amount of baggage, left by the break: fast train London. The t tore on its way south, past smaller editions of Blackport, | ugly, utilitarian, vastly wealthy towns, | the valiant esquires of the great over- lord which surround Blackport for miles and miles of black and smokly activity, and then--very soon, it seem- ed--thé green fields and trees, and the blue sky. Theodora let down the window and drew in long deep breaths of fresher air--air scented with new hay and meadowsweet, and that curious earthy smell of nature, e of primal forces that move on as it man not, but only time and destiny. At the great London terminus Theo- dora Monk found her smartly oughbred bays and its neat coachman and footman. There was also a small | 30}; i 15:5] aH gece feet | | gpupreme | was world-famed. Sir Glare woud no more have gone there unannounced than he would have opened Lord Man- croft's front doer and walked into the Mancroft mansion in Grosvenor Place. It was a small house even for Lon- don, which has been described by & great Spanish novelist as a vast city of cottages It was smaller even thin mid-Victorian Dunbury; but it was a gem of a house for all that, and it had one of the finest ball rooms in the metropolis. Its southern and western windows gave on to the Park, and its walls were hung with some of the finest and rarest ex- amples of Rennaissance art. The Monk collection of Antonio Moro's portraits Its roof covered one of the richest collections of beau- { titul things in the way of furniture, china, glass, stauary to be found in {a fivemile radius of Hyde Park Cor | ner. Theodora was too excited to do justice to the dainty little meal which was waiting her in the Powder-Blue Room. She ran quickly through her correspondence, and saw Mrs. Cam- ber, her housekeeper, and gave a few orders doncerning the immediate future. A great many people had called during the last day or two, when she had been absent in Blackport, and her table was littered with invitations and cards and little notes. But she | left them all to look after themselves ~until later in the day, when she vainly hoped her mind would be freer. She could do nothing until after she had ' seen Van Ost, nothing except telephone Hugh Condor. That, at all events, she must do, to prevent his dogging her footsteps this afternoon. he was surprised that he had not already been round, for she had un- wisely sent him a wire before she left Blackport. She hed an idea at the back of her mind that he might be useful. Hers was a temperament that saw a possible ally in everybody; and she skillfully gave everyone with whom she came into contact the ime pression that he or she was the only real friend she had in the wide world. As for les autres, they did not matter. Hugh Condor was deadly serious, he was exceptionally rich, and he was hers to command in the smallest de- tails of life. Theodora rank up Mr. Condor at his club--~the Marathon, in Piccadilly--but found that he was out. She tried him at his chambers in Stratton Street, and. at another of his many clubs, the Junior Porcelain, but heavas at neither address. So she sent him a telegram at the Marathon, telling him that she would expect him at the Opera that night, but was occupied on matters of serious business con- nected with Sir Glare's affairs until the evening. She took a refreshing bath to take away the fatigue of the moming jour ney, dressed in her quitest clothes, and, without saying where she was going or when she might be back, she left Hamilton Place about & quarter past three &nd walked into Piccadilly. " ' It was really too ridiculous of Van Ost to ask her to do this thing--to meet her at Charing Cross Post Office like a Jovesick servant maid meeting her amorous Guardsman lover. It was impossible. It was inevitable tha she would be recognized by someone; and, besides, just now she particularly did not want to, do anything wrongly. Then Vast Ost was really such an im- possible and such a very pronounced t all events, he was when ghe last saw him, and it was not at all likely that he had fmproved by the last two years' residence in Impopo. the capital of the Concessionnaire Company known as the B.LR.C. In Piccadilly she hailed a taxicab, and drove to Charing Cross Station. She left the cab outside the station, entered by one door and left by an- other, buying an evening paper from the bookstall during her rapid tran- sit, Then she walked slowly, for she was five minutes before her time, to- wards the remndegvous. Van Ost was awaiting her. He saw her as she crossed the busy Strand and waited for a moment on the re- fuge in the middle of the seething Hag a A figure enough er, a singu ng y ih bs Bis fli-fitting clothes sud tra-fore appearance. - a twisted black He was he threw away, aod 1 ¢ NOTICE TO COR- + RESPONDENTS % -- + News letters intended for pub- # lication need not sealed. & Simply fold in the flap and a & one-cent stamp will earry them. 4 Some of our corresp ts are # placing two cents on the emn- # velopes and sealing them.
