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

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal
is the safest and most efficient disin
fectant and purifier in nature. but few
realize lis 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 drug at
ali. but simply absorbs the gases and
impurities always present in the stomach
and intestines ard carries them out Of
the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking. drinking. or after eating onions
and other o5orous vegetables.

WAS A GUEST.
Capt. Burgess Talked at Meeting or
Reunion Association.

CAPTAIN w T. Burgess. as president OF
the Reunion association. was guest at
the reception rendered by Mrs. NJ. L.
Strobe Wednesday afternoon to those VINO
so generously remembered her during the
reunion. The captain was invited to
"talk' and the eloquent words that fell
from his lips in response are deserving
of special mention. He spoke of woman,
citing many deeds Of 'heroism on the part
of woman and said. among many other
beautiful things that the possibility OF
heroic action dwelt permanently IN the
heart of woman only waiting, like the
majestic organ, for the touch of the mas
ter hand. He paid magnificent tribute
to the mothers Of America and closed
with word picture, the beauty and pa
thos Of which moved many to tears or
his own departed mother. 1t is well for
the good captain to know that his words
found a home in the hearts Of those pres

ONE MANS FAITH
IN CITY'S FUTURE
w. G. Shambaugh Invests in
Wichita Property.
PAID $3.50 FOR TWO LOTS
And Expects to Sell Them for
$4,000.

That Wichita property is considered TO
be paying investment by outside capit-
alists. is shown by the fact that W. G.
Shambaugh of Chicago. who recently
bought two lots on East Douglas avenue
as an investment for $3.50, says that he
viii not sell them until he is offered
5000 for each lot. and Mr.. Shambaugh
thinks that the time is not far distant
when he can sell them for that price
AIR. Shambaugh is a travelling sales.
man with headquarters at Chicago and
frequently comes 70 Wichita in the in
terest of his company. It was while on
one of these business trips that he in
vestigated the prices of real estate. and
after seeing the enormous amount of
business being done here he bought the
lots. He is so sanguine of Wichita 5
future success that 70 letter of inquiry
written by p V. Healy. asking what the
lots could be bought for he replied that
he would not sell them for less than
S2.eJ0, and that he would hold on to them
until they brought that price.
P. V. Healy says that while it does not
seem probable that real estate will ad
vance so much in the near future, but to
d reporter for The Eagle he told the fol-
lowing story. which shows how rapidly
Wichita has grown in the past and makes
it seem probable that Mr.. Shambaugs
hopes will be realized in the near future.
He says:
''W. W. Black, who is now dead, came
from Illinois 10 Wichita in 1915 and pur-
chased four lots at the corner of Doug
las and Topeka avenues for s1.600 As
he was leaving the real estate Office the
proprietor asked him what he would sell
the four lots for Mr. Black, after some
hesitation said that when he had an
offer of $4,000 for them he would seel.
The real estate man made fun Of the
proposition. as at that time it did not
seem probable that the lots would ever
bring half that amount. Eight years aft
erward, however, Mr. Black was offered
$4,000 for the lots and still refused the
offer"
From this instance it can be plainly
seen that Wichita is regarded very IA
vorably by men who want to invest in
real estate, and that they are confident
that property will advance IN price.

COMPANY WANTS TO KNOW
Rock Island Officials Travel
by Freight Train.
COMPANY WANTS TO KNOW

c. ". Jones. superintendent Of the
Rock Island. with headquarters at Tope-
ka. and H. T. Mccall, trainmaster for
that company at Harrington, were passen-
gers on a freight train which passed
through Wichita yesterday afternoon
about o'clock from Caldwell TO Herring
ton. The officials were taking the trip
by way of the freight train in order TO
take points on a test case Of the hauling
powers of the company's mammoth bat
tleship 1890 locomotives. The train on
which were Messrs. Jones and Mccall
consisted of cars loaded with 1860 tons
OF freight
Thursday evening the two officials pass
cd through Wichita enroute to Caldwell,
in The special car of MIR. Jones for the
purpose Of making this test 1t is only
one Of more that will DE made in the near
future and cars containing 1860 tons of
freight were attached to one of the loo
locomotives for the first test.
Ordinarily these engines have been re-
CURED to haul but from 1850 to 1900 tons
of freight at a time. 1t is believed, how
ever, by the officials chat the mammoth
engines now in use by Inc company can
haul several hundred more tons Of freight
to each load almost as easily as the
amount which each is now drawing.
When tests of this kind are made the
train is equipped with car known as
a dynameter This car is equipped with
mechanism which shows the exact speed
that is being maintained by train.
Loaded cars containing 1850 IONS OF
weight are equal to about so empty cars
AS one Of these big engines often hauls
100 empty cars. it is argued that each To-
connective can haul just as much weight
in less cars as each can haul in any num-
Der of empties which aggregate the same
weight as the loaded ones.
Several more tests Will be made and
when it is shown that the locomotives
make good time in carrying the addition
al weight Wichitans will no doubt see
some remarkably Ions freight trains pass
through the city loaded with more freight
than was ever before drawn through this
part of the country by one engine

When Medicine Fails, Try Lisuozone--W

Medicine must fail in a germ trou-

LiquoZone-liquid oxygen-is the

guilty TO the charge, admitting that the

The production passed successfully
through the hands of a committee COM
posed of a member of the faculty from
Drake, Colorado college and Colorado
university without the deadly parallel
being discovered. 1t remained for a
u lady membe of the sophomore
class to make the exposure. Booth, by
the judges, was ranked first in thought
and composition and second in delivery,
thus winning a decisive victory.
AS his defense, the student claims
thought is common property. He has
been declared to hold no place in thG
contest. The grafton was revised n
criticised by the teacher of literature at
Colorado Springs high school and
passed to the judges without being
questioned. He r~earranged the wording
somewhat, but parallel paragraphs
found by the faculty here are exact in
