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

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal is the safest and most efficient disenfect- 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 remedy that the more you take of it the better; it is not drug at all, but simply absorbs the gases and im- purities always present in the stomach and intestines and carries them out of the system.
 Charcoal sweetens the b, ,ath after smoking, drinking or after eating onions and other odorous vegetables
 Charcoal effectually clears and improves the complexion, it whitens the teeth and further acts as natural and eminently safe cathartic.
 It absorbs the injurious gases which col lect in the stomach and bowels; 1t disin- fects 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 charcoal 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 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 benefits of charcoal, says: "I advise Stu arts Absorbent Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in stomach and bow els, and to clear the complexion and puri- fy the breath, mouth and throat; I also believe the liver is greatly benefited by the daily use of them; they cost but twen- ty-five cents a box at drug stores, and aI- though in some sense a patent prepara- tion. yet I believe I get more and better charcoal in Stuart's Absorbent Lozenges than in any of the ordinary charcoal tab let's"

LETTERS TO EDITOR
A ouestIon of Relative Merlts.

 To the Editor of the Age-Herald
 Maryland has five reform schools, New yorl, four, Illinois three; fifteen other states have two each thirteen more have one each and the remaining fourteen states have none; among these last are seven southern states.
 The industries taught in these juvenile reformatories Include the making of reed and rattan chairs, brooms, brushes and. dusters, paste board and light wooden boxes, buckets tubs and barrels knit goods, hosiery, shirts and shoes, mat tresses, mail sacks, twine and mats and small articles in iron and steel wood carving, foriculture printing, laundering, baking, farming, etc.
 The last tables of statistics show four states the annual population of whose penal institutions is little less than two thousand; these states are Kentucky, Ohio. Pennsylvania and Alabama. Of the the four Alabama is the only one which makes a profit out of convict labor her profit in 1902 being $9S,S85.6l. The other three maintain their penal institutions, including reform sechols for the young at a cost, over and above receipts rom labor, of from $50000 to s150,000 annually.
  their cost in the number of good workmen turned out and are generally acknowl- edged to be the best investment ever made by any state in efforts to minimize crime and rescue juvenile waifs and strays.
 Alabama has at last made a beginning in caring for her wayward white poys and can point with pride to an industrial school which considering its size and limited means, cannot be surpassed by any state institution, but it is too small an enterprise to be commensurate with the needs and means of the state. Of course the income of the state is not large enough to meet all the demands-it Is safe to say it never will be large enough-but il is growing all the time and the question as to the use of such amounts, as remain after the ordinary legitimate require ments have been provided for. should be one of relative merit. There is no claim that is stronger, no cause for which the state can more justihably spend money than that of caring for the neglected and delinquent boys destined to become con- siderable part of her future citizenship, and no expenditures from which there will be so certain and so large a return.
 The State and the School.
 In the winter of 1899 by act of the legis- lature, a perpetual charter for reform- atory under the care of the state, and an appropriation ofs$3OOO was oDtaineu, anu III 1900 an additional appropriation of $l5,0OO.
 Last February when it was shown that the women to whom this money was in- trusted had so supplemented it as to be able to report property worth at least $30OOO and a school record of two and a half years with regular roll of from fifty to seventy boys, now in a fair way to be reclaimed, much interest in the work was aroused and the bill introduced by Judge Walker of Madison, in behalf of the enlargement of the plant and mainte-
