The Value of Charcoal.
FEW PEOPLE KNOW HOW USEFUL RI n IN
PRESERVING HEALTH AND BEAUTY.

PRESERVING HEALTH AND BEAUTY
Nearly everybody knows that charcoal is the
sofest and most efficient disinfectant and puriAer
in nature. but few realize its value when taken
Into the human system for the same cleansing pur-
pose.
Charcoal Is q remedy that the more you take Of 81
the better; 1t 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 onions and other odor-
vegetables.
Charcoal erectuaIly clears and improves the
complexion. II whitens the teeth and further acts
q natural and eminently safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which collect In
the stomach and bowels; 1t disinfects the mouth
and throat from the poison Of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal In one form or an
other but probably the best charcoal and the
most for the money Is In Stuart's Charcoal Loz.

Willow charcoal. and other harmless antlseptics

but. on the contrary. great benefit.

Of charcoal, saysi 81 advise Stuart's Charcoal
Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in

Wise Weather Sayings.

Rivermen who have followed the Poto-
mac from youth to old age are full of wise
weather sayings. that come as near being
correct as do the predictions of the more
scientific observers. An old riverman who
as master on sailing vessel and steamer
has travelled to and fro on the Potomac for
the past fifty years said to Star reporter
yesterday that he had often noticed that
as the weather is on the first three days
or December In each year so will the
weather be in the three months of winter.
That Is, as the list of December Is, SO win
December be; January will be like the I'd
and February like the 3D.. Another saying
is as the weather is on the Thursday be-
fore the new moon SO will be the weather
for the greater part of the moon.

block for the paving of streets and ave
nues in East Washington.
Regarded as Important Requisite.

Zone of the first and most important re-
quirements of a modern pavement is that it
shall afford a foothold for horses. The as
phalt blocks fulfill this requirement. in fact,
the blocks have been developed with partic-
ular reference to this need.
1.-THE trap rock never polishes, and is in
Its very nature gritty. In addition to the
inherent roughness of surface, the joints
between the block, coming every four inches
OF the pavement. catch the toe calks Of
horses shoes and stop any incipient tend
encv to slip.
I'm New York city the use of monolithic
pavement is limited on account of its Slip
per1ness to streets of less than 2.5 per cent
grade. while asphalt blocks are used on
grades up to per cent and frequently
more.
Regarded as Sanitary.
'The block pavement is regarded as in
the highest degree sanitary. The blocks
are absolutely non-absorbent, being rec
tangular In shape and laid closely together,
the joints soon become closed by the weld
ing effect of traffic on the elastic material.
thus preventing the absorption of noxious
LIQUIDS and the subsequent exhalation Of
ef1uvfa and communicating vapors.
The public works of Washington being
under the supervision of government engi-
neers. the subject of pavements has re-
ceived very careful attention, and 1T is sig
nificant that asphalt blocks were adopted
as standard material for paving as early
as 1884. Blocks have been laid every year
since then in increasingly large quantities.
Over 0,000 square yards have been laid in
this city.
Asphalt block pavements have been laid
in 119 cities and towns Of the United States
and 43 foreign cities. Among them Great
er New York has 612,1S6 square yards of
asphalt block pavement.
Baltimore, Md, 295. 727 square yards: Lon

BIG FAIR THIS YEAR

Every indication points to a rec
ord breaking attendance at the Spo-
kane Interstate fair, October to
9. The railroads have been more
generous to Spokane this year than
they have been for several years.
Each community will have one day
when an excursion will be run to
Spokane, the fare being the one fare
rate for the round trip. Persons 60
ing on this excursion can return any
day up to and including the day after
the fair. Besides this. there is a
general reduced rate of fare and a
third, good all days.
Harvest is early. the crops are
good. and the prices are high. there
fore the farming communities will
have the money and the opportunity
to attend the fair this year. The fair
itself will be unusually good. Such,
at least. is every present indication.
John L. Smith, superintendent of the
stock department, who knows more
about stock shows than any other
man in the Pacific northwest, says
the stock department will be as good
and probably better than ever before.
Cattle will come from California. and
horses from Europe.
