THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful 1t Is
II. Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient dis
infectant and purifier in nature, but
few realize its value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
ing 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 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 OdOTOuS vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and inn
proves the complexion, it whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural and
eminently safe eathartie.
It absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels it
aisinfects 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 Absorbent Lozenges; they
are composed of the finest powdered
willow charcoal and other harmless
antiseptics in tablet form, or. rather.
in the fosm of large. pleasant tasting
Iozenges. the charcoal being mixed with
honey.
The daily use of these lozenges will
soon tell 10 a mich improved condition

and the beauty of it is that no possible
harm can result from their continued
use, but. on the contrary, great benefit

UNUSUAL PRISON CASE
CONVEY SAYS HE Is a VICTIM OF
MfsTASEN IDENTIFICATION.
Crime Committed I'm Hassachuseffs on
Day He Was working I'm New
Jersey Bridge Works.

TRENTON. y. J.. Oct. 4--Offcials of the
American Bridge Company are interesting
themselves in the case OF Albert Steiner,
a former employee. who went under the
name of Charles Lewis, and who was SEN
fenced to a term of ten years in the Massa-
chusetts state prison at Charlestown.
Steiner claims that his arrest and conviction
is one of mistaken identity and the officials
OF the bridge company here are inclined to
believe his story. An investigation will be
made at once. and il Steiner's story is found
TO be true an effort Will be made TO secure
his pardon.
For more than year past, up TO Aug. %
OF this year. Steiner was employed at the
American bridge works in this city. On
the latter date--he drew $3.50 on account
and went away for a few days trip. The
next heard of him was a letter TO j. Henry
kelin, the company's paymaster, saying
ne had been arrested or Aug % on a charge
OF highway robbery, alleged to have been
committed on Aug. IS. on which day
Steiner. according to the company's records
mere, was working in Trenton. Steiner
requested an affidavit from Mr.. Kelin set
ting out this fact. The affidavit was sent,
but Steiner writes back that before the
afidayit reached him the ten year sentence
Steiner claims also that the sentence was
made heavy because of other offenses which
he was alleged have committed.
Little Is known OF Steiner outside OF his
employment with the company and the fact
that he had served a term in the New Jer-
sey State prison for an offense of which he
says he was also innocent. The American

requested to make a thorough investigation
OF the case.
