ADVERTISEMENTS
THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It Is in Pre-
serving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant 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 car
ries them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating
onions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and inn
proves the complexion, it whitens the
teeth and further acts as natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; it
disinfects 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 Charcoal 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 Ioz-
enges, 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 complex
ion. 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: II ad-
wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all
patients suffering from gas in stomach
and bowels, and to clear the complex
ion and purify the breath, mouth and
throat; 1 also believe the liver is great

Charged With Many Viola
tiOns of the Law

BOSTON, Oct. S.-An Indictment
with 16O counts against John NJ. Bar

Trust, was returned to-day. The spe-
cific charge against Barry is using OBJ
legations redeemable in numerical or

company, it is alleged, was to issue

But while the action of the market thus
continued under a degree of distrust
and suspicion, the scope of the move
