THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.

In Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal

system for the same cleansing purpose.
Charcoal Is a remedy that the more

impurities always present in the stomach
and intestines and carries them out Of

smoking. drinking or after eating onions
and other Odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and improves
the complexion. II whitens the teeth and
further acts as a natural and eminently
safe cathartic.

use it. but that the money must not be
used through the general appropriation
bill, but through the medium of a special

A MOVE AGAINST TRUSTS.

Russim Proposes an International
 Conference.
 LONDON, July 19.-Details of an inn portant move by Russia, which have evidently been suppressed hitherto by the censor, have transpired in London. This move is no less than proposal by the imperial government for an in ternational conference to deal with trusts.
 Baron de Staal, Russian embas ssador in London, about ten days ago present ed to the British government note from M. de Witte, the Russian minister of finance, which note was sent also to all the powers that signed the Brussels sugar convention, proposing that these powers should consider in common means to protect International com merce against the artificial depression of prices not only by government meas ures, such as export bounties or the control of production, but also by the much more dangerous processes adopt ed by trusts, private undertakings or cartels, which tend artificially to in- duence the international market.
 This explains the mysterious refer ence made in the Financial Messenger of St. Petersburg early in the week to a recent note of NJ. de Witte, which the paper said 'is an application in the economic domain of the principles of The Hague confeEance."

The Building Will Be Modern Up-to-

It is to be magnificent building, with three en- frances, one facing the green, one cn North Main street facing Abbott ave- rue, and the third on Prospect. street. The cost of the site is about $50 ,000, and this item will be subscribed ill such manner that the actual money put up will not amount to that sum, far below it in fact it will be, but vet the hotel will be the finest in the Saug- atuck valley if not the handsomest be- tween here and New York.

 It will not be a money making ven ture, while. of course, it is not intended that 1t shall be a loosing scheme. The main feature about it IS that it is to be family place. Tn all the other schemes for hotel to replace the old Scovill house, the main feature was money making. The moneyed men of the city did not favor that idea. hence the reason it fell through. Such hotel would not be at all like the old Scovill house. Such men as Fl. H. Peck could not abide in such place.
