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

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal
is the safest and most efficient disinfec-
tant and purifier in nature, but few real
lZe its 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 a drug
impurities always present in the stom-
ach and 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 col
lect in the stomach and bowels; it disin-
fects the mouth and throat from the poi
son 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 form of large, pleas
ant tasting lozenges. the charcoal being
mixed with honey.
The daily use of these lozenges will soon
tell in 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 con-
trary, great benefit.
A Buffalo physician in speaking of the
benefits of charcoal, says: 81 advise Stu
arts Absorbent Lozenges to all patients
suffering from gas in stomach and bow
els. and to clear the complexion and mr.
ny the breath, mouth and throat; l also
believe the liver is greatly benefited by the
daily use OF them; they cost but twenty

TARIFF is THE BASIS
OF ALL THE TRUSTS
Mr.. Sullivan, Democratic Cam
didate for Governor ofIowa,
Hits Republicans Hard.

DENISON, Iowa. Sept. 12.-Jerry B.
Sullivan, Democratic candidate for
governor. was greeted by a good sized
crowd here this afternoon when he
delivered his first formal address of
the campaign. The address dealt al
most entirely with the tariff and trust
questions. Gov. Cummins was taken
severely to task for not standing by his
former attitude on the tariff ques-
ton. Mr.. Sullivan said:
The tariff policy of the United
States is a selfish one. Its promoters
are men who believe in upbuilding
their own fortunes. They are not
looking after the interests of the farm
Ing and producing class, although
nearly 20 per cent of the export trade
of the United States is the product of
agriculture. All tariff laws should be
enacted on strictly revenue basis
Any other theory of levying taxation
Is contrary to the letter of the con-
sutution and to the spirit of free in
situations. Congress is and ought to
be without power to tax you for my
benefit.
The tariff aids in creating monop-
olies and is the basis of all trusts
The trouble is and has been that our
people have not yet given to the trust
question the serious attention it de-
serves. The inevitable consequence
of combinations is the elimination of
competition.
The Republicans say that the
money question is settled and wish to
keep from your minds all reference to
it. 1t may and 1t may not be settled
depending upon the point of view from
which you look at it. The Democracy
ever has been and ever will be in
favor of stable and sound currency.
1t is as much opposed to a trust in
money as it is to a trust in the prod
ucts of labor. 1t is the fundamental
principle of the Democratic party that
the money of our country should be
under the control of the general gov
eminent and in quantities sufficient
for all practical purposes. Our friends,
the enemy. are unwilling that the peo-
pie should control the money, but wish
corporations and banks to do So
DO you fully appreciate that sys-
TEN of craftsmanship which wishes to
engraft on the law of our country
statute permitting q ten dollar bill
TO be based upon the assets of some
defunct bank and is unwilling to have
the ten dollar bill based upon the
silver bullion of our country? Which
asset would you prefer? That of the
banks in the hands of a receiver or
silver bullion in the vaults of the
United States? Such is the intention
of the Fowler bill. The Aldrich bill
is along the same line, but a step in
advance
The Republicans say they point
with pride to the course they have
pursued in the Philippine islands. The
pride they may feel is not the pride
1 wish. do not believe an American
army should be stationed anywhere
for the subjubation of a free people,
not even in our own lands The peo-
pie In the Philippine islands are able
to govern themselves"
