Hot Water for
Sick Headaches
Tells why everyone should drink
hot water with phosphate
in It before breakfast.
Headache of any kind Is caused by
•utodntuxiaxtlon—which t means self-
poisoning. Liver and bowel poisons
called toxins, sucaed Into the blood,.
through the lymph ducts, excite the
heart which pumps the blood so fast
that ft congests in the smaller arteries'
and veins of the bead producing vio•1
lent, throbbing pain and distress, called
headache. You become nervous, de'
apondent, sick, feverish and miserable'
your meals sour and almost nauseate
yet. Then yon resort to acetanilids,
aspirin or the bromides which tempor-
arily relieve but do not rid the Wood of
these irritating toxics.
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 sye
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, it
tongue Is coated or no wake up with
bad taste, foul breath or have colds,
indigestion, blllouaness, constipation
or Four, acid stomach, begin the phos-
phated hot water cure to rid your
'<rrtem of toxins and poisons.
Results are quick and 1t Is claimed
that those Who continue to flush out
the stomach, liver and bowels every
morning never have any headache or
know a miserable moment

UNIVERSITY TRAINING,
President Braithwaite Tells How It Opens
the Doors to important Positions.
Dr. E. E. Braithwaite, president of
the Western University, London, ad-
dressed the staff and pupils of the
Collegiate Institute last Friday mrrrn-
ing on "The importance• of Higher
Education," He called attention to
the result of a media investigation
made in the United States, from
which it ,appeared that the chances
of occupying tine of the great influen-
tial positions of the country were over
two hundred times w great for a per-
son who had a university training as
for one who had not this advantage.
The boys and girls who are now In
our high schools should be the ones to
arum. these positions In the future if
they wake proper preparation for
them.

our ttnlversttiee of so 1 • propor-
tion of their students, and as eery few
