Alex Shields Zoraster was second and ". c. Whitney's Slipthrift third. The big crowd applaud ed the finish as the best and closest seen on the metropolitan track this season. Daing srHeld winning by a nose at the pest. It was the coneensus of opinion that the winning of the favorite was en- tlrely due to Odom's wonderful finish.
 Seven good herses faced the starter for this race, which was a trip of two miles and e quart ar. Major Daingerfield closed faNorite at to D, with Zoraster and Igniter equal second choices at to ,. After minutes delay at the post. Start CT Pettengill sent them away on their long journey to n beautiful start, the horses rrnning head and head fer fully fifty yards. Sipthrift forged to the front. making the first turn. As the field swung into the back stretch, Slipthrift had op- ened a gap of five lengths. with Goldcure second and the Major third. Slipthrift continued to show the way for nearly two miles.
 Rounding the far turn the last time around odom began to send his mouut ahead. At the stretch he had the leader beaten, ard it looked ss ii he would come home alone, but Shaw on Zoraster, who was riding a splendid race, made his move and was a head in front of the fast tiring Major at the eighth pole. Odcm, however, was not to be denied, and rising a wonderfully strong finish, managed to snatch a victory out of tho fire by a nose. Zoraster was second, eight lengths in front of Slipthrift.

ON THE RACE TRACK
At Chicaao.

Chicago, September 1S-Joekey Wind lett made a farce out of the mile race against the worlds record of 1:37 4-5, be- tween Jimlnez and Rosetree, by easing the latter all through the last eighth of a mile. That the corrigan mare was easily the better of the two, there could be no denial as the race was run today, but the time of 1:39 S-5 was not within a second and two-ffths of the track re- cord. What caused Winsleit to ease Rosetree up when he knew the race was against time was a puzzle to the judges as well as the public.
 The two took a flying start and raced head and head to the back stretch, where Jininez forged to the front by length and a half and took the rail. At the far turn Rose Tree again joined him and turning for home had a length to the good Jiminez was plainly beaten but regardless of the fact that the breaking of the record was the main object in view, Winslett took a stout hold of Rose Tree and she finished under a stout pull and only in a common gallop with two lengths to spare.
 Dagmar, backed from to l. to to 1, won the September stakes over the short course in easy fashion. Jockey Johnson, who rode MacIaren, was suspended ln- definitely for taking his mount over the full course The stake was worth S135O to the winner, and Dagmar equalled the record for the course, in 3:31.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It Ia In
 Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal is the safest and most efficient disintect- ant and purifier in nature. but few real ize It's value when taken Into the human system for the same cleansing purpose.
 Charcoal is a remedy that the more you take Of 1t the betteri it is not drug at all, but simply absorbs the gases and impurities always present ih the stom- aeh and intestlnes and carries them out of the system.
 Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or eating onions and other odorous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually clears and im- proves the complexion, it whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe eathartlc.
 It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; 1t disinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh.
 All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probably the best char coal and the most for the money Is in Stuart's Absorbent Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoal and other harmless antiseptics in tablet form or rather in the form of large, pleasant tasting lozenges, the char coal being mixed with honey.
 The daily use of these lozenges will soon tell in a much improved condition of the general health, better complexion, sweeter breath and purer blood, and the beauty of 1t is, that no possible harm can result from their continued use, but on the contrary, great benefit.
 A Buffalo physician in speaking of the benefits of charcoal says; T advise Stuarts Absorbent Lozenges to all pa tients suffering from gas in the stomach and bowels. and to clear the complexion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; l also believe the liver is greatly bene- hted by the daily use of themi they cost but twenty-five cents a box at drug stores. and although in some sense pat ent preparation. yet l believe l get more and better charcoal in Stuart's Absorb ent Lozenges than any of the ordinary | oha tal

Said the clothing man to the hard

when you order a suit from an eastern
house with my big stock in sight. But
the clothier wanted d new steel range
and it came, the neighbors know, in a

The business men called meeting

then all agreed twas the editor and

they said, and stand by the ones who
stand by him and give him his daily

This is not gentle wOrd-but when

universally known and a remedy that
has had the largest sale of any medi-
cine in the world since 1868 for the
cure and treatment Of consumption
and throat and lung troubles without
losing it's great popularity all these
years, you will be thankful we called
your attention to Boschee's German
Syrup. There are so many ordinary
cough remedies made by druggists and
others that are cheap and good for
light colds perhaps, but for severe
coughs, bronchitis, croup--and espec-

is nothing like German Syrup. Sold
