For the benefit of those who want a restoration to full, bounding health and all the happiness ac companying It. the following home treatment Is given.

Why Is man and woman, half the time, feeling nervous, despondent, worried; some days headachy, dull and unstrung; some days really in capacitated by illness. if we all would practice inside bat hing, what a gratifying change would take place. Instead of thou-; sands of half-sick, anaemic-looking ,-ouls with pasty, muddy complexions , \vc- should see crowds of happy, healthy, rosy-cheeked people every- 1 where. The reason is that the human i system does not rid itself each day of sill the waste which it accumulates un der our present mode of living. For every ounce of food and drink taken into the system nearly an ounce of waste material must be tarried out, else it ferments and forms ptomaine like poisons which are absorbed into 1 tile blood. Just as necessary as it is to clean the ashes from the furnace each day. before the lire will burn bright and hot, so we must each morning clear the inside organs of the previous l (lay's accumulation of indigestible waste and body toxins. Men and wo men. whether sick or well, are advised to drink each morning, before break fast, a glass of real hot water with a , teaspoont'ul of limestone phosphate in it, as a harmless means of washing out of the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the indigestibe material, waste, sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. Millions of people who had their turn at constipation, bilious attacks.: acid stomach, nervous days and sleepless nights have become real cranks about the morning inside-bath. A quarter pound of limestone phos phate will not cost much at the drug store, but is sufficient to demonstrate to anyone, its cleansing, sweetening and freshening effect upon the sys-1 tern.

DIXIE GOES AHEAD I By Frederic J. Haskin [Continued From Kditorial I'agc] tabllshed, and that if the ship lines would only come in. the railroads would have to make the rates. Their problqm is how lo get the movement started at either one end of the other, j The way Charleston is going at the proposition Is typical and interest ing. Charleston, as every one knows, |is very quaint and very historical. It lis also very busy and very ambitious. These contrasting qualities jostle ! against each other in every phase of the city's life. Take the Chamber of j Commerce, for example. Its walls i are decorated with the pictures of all 'its presidents, clear back >o the Co lonial ones with long-curly hair and frilled collars a root wide. But its executive office is occupied by a man, who, at the slightest interrogative ex cuse, will give you a complete statis tical review of the traffic situation in America as affecting Charleston, and conclude with a forecast of the city's future that makes you want to go out and buy real estate at once. This Chamber of Commerce is alive. Its president is something of a national figure. It Is imbued with the his torical consciousness that Charleston was once the second port ln America; and also with a present determination that it Is going to be one of the most important ones again. Charleston looks forward to the day when it will not ship cotton and grain and beef on the hoof; but cloth and flour and meats. And the profit upon these manufacturing operations will remain in and about Charleston and Kreat will be the wealth and the fame thereof. The city also looks to a more imme diate future when it will get a shure of the goods that are being manufac tured in the Southern Allegheny re gion. All of the swift mountain streams are being harnessed. Tennes see and Georgia and Alabama are be coming a manufacturing country us ing hydro-electric power. The natural outlet for these new industries are the southern ports. Charleston is de termined that said goods shall have every assistance in finding their na tural outlet. DAVIS, AUTHOR AND WRITER, DIES SUDDENLY [Continued lYoni First l'age.l York city. Ills wife assumed, when he did not return, that he had seated himself to read and did not visit the library until after midnight. Air. Davis had been in failing health APRTT, 12, 1016. for some time and had sought quiet at his country place, Cross Roads Farms, under the care of his wife, who was Bessie McCoy, the actress. Richard ITardlng Davis, one of the most popular of American writers, a playwright also, and a veteran corre spondent of five wars, including the present, was born in Philadelphia in 1864, the son of 1.,. Clarke Davis and Rebecca Harding Davis, also a writer.

He was correspondent during the Turco- Greek.

One of his earliest and most widely read books, "Soldiers of Fortune," was published in 1899 and in succeeding years lie wrote more than thirty vol umes of fiction and war experiences, together with a number of plays and numerous short stories. In 1899 Mr. Davis married Cecil Clark, daughter of J. M. Clark, of Chi cago, and was divorced from her in 1912. A few days later Mr. Davis mar ried Miss McCoy, who was the famous Yarna Yama girl in a popular musical comedy. A daughter, Hope Davis, was born. Stories Are Stirring Richard Harding Davis tirst gained distinction for his Rtorles in the New York Evening Sun in 1 888. For a short time he was managing editor of Harpers Weekly. In 1914 lie was cor respondent for the New York Tribune in Mexico during the hostilities be tween that country and the United States. His novels and short stories are breezy and stirring, full of Incident and adventure, and marked by Clevel and striking, if not deep or subtle, characterization. Arnuin hl» books are; "GalleKlier and Other Stories," "Stories for Boys," "Van Bibber and Others," "Our Eng lish Cousins," "About Paris," "The Rulers of the Mediterranean," "The Exiles,' "Thrfee Grlngoes in Venezuela and Central America," "Cuba in War Time," "The Cuban and Porto Rican Campaign," "With Both Armies in South Africa."

Mr. Davis' books have been trans lated into German. French and Rus sian and probably are more widely read than those of any other American author. He has received decorations from Russia, Venezuela, Turkey anil the Khedive of Egypt.
