THE VALUE OF, CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful it is il
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Few People Know How Useful it Is IN
Preserving Health and Beauty.
Nearly everybody knows that charcoal
is the safest and most efficient disinfect-
ant and purifier in nature, but few realize
its value when taken into the human
system for the same cleansing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more you
take of it the better; it is not a drug at
all, but simply absorbs the gases and i'm
purities always present in the stomach
an intestines and carries them out of the
system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath 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 a natural and eminently
safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; it dis
infects the mouth and throat from the
poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one form
or another, but probably the best charcoal
and the most for the money is in Stuart's
POoN+sA
of the finest powdered Willow charcoal,
and other harmless, anti-septics in tablet
form or rather in the form of large, pleas
ant 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: Il advise
Stuarts Absorbent Lozenges to all pa
tients suffering from gas in stomach and
bowels, and to clear the complexion and
purify the breath, mouth and throat;
also believe the liver is greatly benefited
by the daily use of them; they cost but
twenty-five cents box at drug stores, and
although in some sense a patent prepare
ton, yet believe get more and better
charcoal in Stuart's Absorbent Lozenges
than in any of the ordinary charcoal
tablets"

Reunion Notes.

The gathering of North Carolinians at
home and abroad at Greensboro next week
has awakened universal interest and open
ed many of the dormant and best impulses
of the human heart The last issue of
the North Carolina Baptist contains the
following eloquent reference to the re-
union, which expresses well sentiment
that has been awakened throughout the
press of the whole country.
He who first conceived the idea of a
reunion of North Carolinians at Green's
boro was a thinker for good. Such a
gathering will bring good cheer and profit
Many heart will be made glad many
an old mother will weep tears of Joy.
Kindred and friends will rejoice at one
more look at the long gone boy come
back from the West. There will be ten
thousand stories to tell of adventure and
struggle and success This gathering will
bring men from the four corners of the
globe and from every land and from the
isles of. the sea. North Carolinians are
scattered. They are everywhere. Why
the old State has furnished for other
States. Presidents, VicePresidents, United
States Senator's, judges. generals, great
preachers, educators, fnanciers, in fact
leaders in all lines
We are glad of the reunion. 1t will do
us good. 1t will do the exles good to
come back and see the cid mother State.
We are wishing happy time of greeting
and rejoicing at the great Greensboro
meeting in October.
}a
The reason for selecting October 18th
for the reuniqh of North Carolinans at
Greensboro, is that this day is that by
statue North Carolina Day, and the
schools and colleges and people are sup
posed to take this day from their ordin-
airy occupations each year to study some
phase. of the North Carolina history.
For one reason the date Of the reunion
The news & observer. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1894-current, 1903-10-04

is unfortunate 1t is an exceedingly busy
season with all people and especially with
one class who would naturally enjoy the
occasion keenly but who find it very
difficult to leave their institutions in the
month of October. North Cardinals sons
hold honorable positions in such institu-
tions as Harvard, Dartmouth, Cornell,
Johns Hopkins, Vanderbilt. the State
Universities of Texas, Virginia, Wisconsin,
Georgia and many others.
Mr. Murat Halstead, who is a grand son
,of North Carolina, and who is going to
make an address at the reunion, writes
that his grand father was John Halstead,
of Currituck county, and that his fathers
mothers maiden name was Ruth Richard
son, daughter of Jacob Richardson, Of
Pasquotank county. His father left the
State when quite young.
Mr.. Halstead writes as follows: cit has
occurred to me that it might be of in
terest to you to know in connection with
the management of the reunion at Green's
boro, North Carolina, that Dr. Albert
Shaw. editor of the Review of Reviews,
is a descendant of John Halstead of Cur
rituck. and as you have pronounced me
qualified as grandson of old North Car
DINA. DR.. Shaw could qualify as a great
grandson.
All of this illustrates the truth of the
Charlotte Observers statement that al
most everybody in the country, who is
any account was either born in North
Carolina or is descended frcm somebody
born there.
General Julian S. Carr, who loves all
North Carolinians in the State and out
of it, writes that he proposes to celebrate
his ffty-eighth birthday with the Tar
Heels in Greensboro, October the 18th.
This is also the birthday of President
George T. Winston. of the Agricultural
and Mechanical College. 1t is the ami.
versary of the laying of the corner stone
of the University of North Carolina. 1t
is the anniversary, too. of Columbuss dis
covery of America. Almost any of these
events is big enough to have induced the
North Carolina Legislature to make De-
tober the 18th "North Carolina Day. as
was done by the General Assembly CT
1908.
The editor of the Greensboro Evening
Record announce that his entire office
outfit and printing establishment will be
transferred to his new and handsome two
story building this week With true hos
pitality he notifies all men born of the
fourth estate visiting the reunion to
make it headquarters and talk ghbly
about latch strings hanging out, etc. And
every facility is furnished for writing inn
pressons made by the events of the great
occasion of the coming together of 50
many thousand of resident and non-resi-
dapt North Carolinians

People with good blood possess strong,
steady nerves and are blest with good
appetites and digestion, and eniov
sound, refreshing sleep. If we could
always maintain the purity of the
blood then we might enjoy perpetual
health, but it becomes infected and
poisoned and most of the ills that afflict
humanity and undermine the constitu-
ton are caused by an impoverished
or polluted condition of this vital fluid.
When the blood is diseased the skin
loses its healthy appearance, and the
complexion, its freshness and beauty
and becomes red and rough and full Of
pimples and splotches. Itching, sca1y
eruptions, blackheads, boils and -ashes
break out upon the body when the
blood is Zoo poor or too thin and acid,
and is not supplying proper nourish-

appetite, bad digestion, restless sleep
and nervousness more often come from

free trade speech is a great disappointment to the
supporters of Mr. Chamberlain who had apparently
hoped-basing their hope the ambiguous speech
his lordship made Burnley time ago-that
he might be found their side. This disappoint-
ment is increased by a hint given by Lord Rosebery
in his speech that he is willing actively lead

reference was exceedingly vague.

his intention TO cooperate actively with the Union
