THE VALUE OfCHARCOAL
Few People Know How Useful II is
in Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature, but
few realize it's value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
ing purpose.
Charcoal is = remedy that the more
you take of it the better; it is not a
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present
in the stomach and intestines and
carries them out of the system,
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating on
ions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion, 1t whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels: N
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison Of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in ono
form or another. but probably the best
charcoal and the most for the money
is in Stuart's Absorbent Lozenges.
they are composed of the finest now
dered Willow charcoal. and other
harmless antiseptics in tablet form or
rather in the form OF large, pleasant
tasting lozenges, the charcoal being
mixed with honey.
The daily use of these lozenges will
soon tell in a much improved condi-
ton of the general health, better corn
plexion, 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

TWO LECTURES
ON RESCUE WORK.
To Be Given by Mrs. Barrett, Presi-
dent of Crittenton Homes.

dent of CrittentOn Homes.
Mrs. Kate Waller Barrett, national
president of the Florence Crittenton
Mission Homes, will give two more
addresses in Savannah. Tonight, in
the lecture room of Wesley Monument
tai Church, she will speak on general
rescue work and will also discuss the
work that is now being done at the
Savannah home. 1t is hoped and ex-
pected to have a large audience.
A mothers meeting will be held, al
so in the lecture room of the Wesley
noon at 4:30 O'Clock. To this meeting
the ladies of all churches, as well as
those who have no church affiliations,
are urgently asked to be present.
Mrs. Barrett is the widow of an
Episcopal rector and her experience
in rearing her six children, as we'll as
her varied and long continued service
in rescue work, peculiarly fits her to
aid mothers who wish to realize the
highest and best life for their children.
Mrs. Barrett is recording secretary
of the National Congress of Mothers.
She has but recently returned from
the City OIL MeAlCO, WueIS SHd GoldD-
lished a Crittenton Home and in con-
nection with it a day nursery and a
free kindergarten, the last the first
institution of it's kind in that coun-
try.
Mrs. Diaz, the wife of President Diaz
OF the Republic is honorary president
of the institution and Mrs. Sepulvada,
the wife of one of the most prominent
lawyers of the country is the active
president. The estimation in which the
rescue work is held by the most promi-
nent people of the United States is
shown by the following letter, sent by
President Roosevelt to a meeting in
New York some two weeks ago:
Mrs. Kate Waller Barrett-My dear
Madam: 1 wish you all possible sue
cess with your work. 1 have long felt
that there was a peculiar claim for
philanthropic work on behalf of the
very people whom you are striving to
aid Under our social system, they pay
so heavy a penalty for wrong doing,
and the road to reform and rehabiIi-
tation is made so difficult that 1 can
conceive of no more worthy work than
that of institutions such as the one
under your management"

The club members had invited many
friends and the entertainment was one
that will long be remembered by all

nothing short of marvellous, and the as

entertained. but greatly mystified.
While this was the first appearance
here of Prof. Zanoni, he is very well
known by reputation, and has been
giving demonstrations in many of the
Southern cities for some time. He is
quite recently from Florida, where he
has given a number OF very interest

notwithstanding that to-day is Sun
day a great many anxious truck grow
ers will visit their farms in the neigh
borhood of Savannah this morning,
and they will go with some apprehen-
sion. While it was thought some time
ago that all danger of killing frost
was about over, the Weather Bureau
last night sent out warnings, and &C
cording to the best calculations of the
men who keep tab on the changes, it
was thought that there would be frost
in this section. The temperature did
not fall very low during the day, and
there was considerable wind, all dur
ing morning and afternoon, which is
a foe to frost but the wind lulled at
shutdown and the decrease in tempera-
ture became marked.
The local forecast official gave out
the statement yesterday afternoon
that the mercury was expected to reach
43 degrees, and if this figure was
reached in any portion of the truck
section it no doubt did considerable
damage. Young potatoes, beans, peas,
tomatoes, cucumberS, etc, are all at
stage when a frost means a complete
set back. Potatoes, when frozen down.
will come up again, but the other
crops have to be replanted, and thus
several weeks of time is lost.
The thermometer reading at the
Weather Bureau at o'clock last night
showed Sc degrees, and at midnight
there was only a decline of four de-
grees noted at the Morning News Of

there was so much cause for worry.
and it was hoped that the farms might
all escape.

that he did not feel much alarmed.

Before a small but delighted au-

night. Mr.. John Bennett of Charleston,
talked and sang the Music and Folk
Lore of the Past. The evening was
pleasantly informal and Mr.. Bennett
seemed as though entertaining a party
of friends in his own drawing room.
Taking the position that it was the
negro only who had given to America
a Folk Lore and Folk Songs, he drew
a very interesting picture of the coll
ored people of fifty years ago, and
gave selections from some of their
most popular songs-melodies that
seem to have sprung from the inner
most souls of the negroes, without ex-
ample or precedent.
Mr.. Bennett sang lines from the
spiritual songs, the lullabies and the
working songs of the colored people
before the war" accompanying him
self on the guitar. The audience show
ed full appreciation during the lecture
and often gave expression in applause.
