imagine she's weak, or may fancy she's
sick, but her imagination cart add forty

proof of the curative power of "Favorite

HARVARD is VICTORIOUS
Beats Carlisle Indians D~ecIsIveIy by
Score of Twenty-Three to
Nothing.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Nov. Harvard
defeated the Carlisle Indian school today
on Soldiers field by % to 0. The game was
very exciting and sensational at times.
Both sides punted frequently and Herman
especially with marked effect, one of his
attempted but one trick play, which was
made in the first half. Carlisle was per-
mitted to throw Putnam as he got through
tackle for a ive-yard loss, but before any
had passed to Herman, who skirted the
Indians left end for a forty-fve-yard run
to Carlisle's ffty-yard line.
BY far the most sensational play of the
game came toward the close of the second
half, when Marshall caught one Of Car
isles punts on his own thirty-yard line
and ran the length of the field for a touch
down.
The Indian ends were we'll down on the
pUnts and had Marshall blocked as he
tried to go up the right side of the field,
but he lodged them and by going back Ave
yards was able to get to the extreme left
hand side of the field and run to the goal
line.
The Indians had several tricks up their
sleeves and succeeded in gaining ground
with them, but their runners fumbled the
ball so often that their rushings availed
but little. In the first half Carlisle reached
Harvard's ffteen-yard line.
Harvard's most effective plays were end
runs and her tackle-back formation. The
Indians ends were too light to stop the
plays. Johnson's run for Carlisle in the
back field was particularly good. At one
time he caught one of Kernan's long punts
running az full speed. His tackling was
hard and sure.
Fully 5000 spectators witnessed the play,
the most notable person in attendance being
the crown prince of Siam, who was accom-
panied by his party.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL
Few People Know How Useful II is in
PreservtnG Health and Beauty

Few People Know How Useful II is I'm
PreservtnE Health and Beauty.
Nearly everybody knows that charcoal is
the safest and most enhcient disintectant
and purifier in nature. but few realize It's
value When taken into the human system
for the same cleansing purpose.
Charcoal Is q remedy hat the more you
take OF II the better; II IL not a drug at all,
but simply absorbs the gases and impuri-
ties always present in the stomach and in
testines and carries them out OF the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after smok-
ing and drinking or after eating onions and
other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal e1ectually clears and improves
the complexion. Il whitens the teeth and
further acts as q natural and eminently
safe eathartic.
II absorbs the injurious gases which col
lect in the stomach and bowels; II disin-
feOts the mouth and throat from the poison
of eatarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal In one form or
another. but probably the best charcoal and
the most for the money is stuart's Alb
sorbent LoEenges; they are composed Of the
finest powdered willow charcoal and other
harmless Antiseptics in tablet form, OF,
rather. In the form Of large. pleasant tast-
ing loEenges. the charcoal being mixed with
honey.
The daily use Of these loEenges will soon
tell in a much improved condition Of the
general health, better complexion. sweeter
breath and purer blood. and the beauty Of It
is. that no possible harm can result from
their continued use. but. on the contrary,
great benefit.
A Buffalo physician. in speaking OF the
dement's of charcoal, says. Il advise
stuart's Absorbent Lozenges TO all patients
suffering from gas in the stomach and ow-
els. and to clear the complexion and purify
the breath. mouth and throat; l also be-
'lievs the liver is greatly benefited by the
daily use of them; they cost but twenty-five
cents a box at drug stores, and although In
