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

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
lie its 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 all, but simply absorbs the gases and
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, 1t whitens the teeth and
further acts as natural and eminently
It absorbs the injurious gases which COL
lect in the stomach and bowels; it disin-
fects the mouth and throat from the pol
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
eweeter breath and purer blood, and the
beauty Of 1t 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: "I advise Stu
arts Absorbent Lozenges to all patients
suffering from gas in stomach and bow
els. and to clear the complexion and puri-
~ the breath, mouth and throat; I also
believe the liver is greatly benefited by
the daily use of them; they cost but
twenty five cents a box at drug stores,
and, although In some sense a patent
preparation, yet believe / get more and
better charcoal in Stuart's Absorbent
Lozenges than in any of the ordinary
charcoal tablets"

and as the law of the order requires
candidate to receive the highest vote
and third of all votes cast, there was
no election for grand warden, there be-
ing five candidates for the position and
no one of them being able to receive
one-third of the vote, hence the cleo
ton of grand warden will be post
poned until the grand lodge meeting
next June
Winn Powers, grand master elect,
was born and educated in Ohio. He
came to st. Paul in 1884, and has been
identified with the successful business
men of the city ever since. During his
connection with the order he has seen
its membership double both in this
state and throughout the country
The membership in the United States
is nearly million and a half; the net
increase last year was over $1,000.

Model Paintings and Drawings.
"Some Of the paintings and drawings
are well enough executed to serve as
models for book cuts, and that is say
a high character. The colorings of
most Of the maps are delicately shaded.
and the outlines appear as concise as if
they were printed"
The paintings that have been re-
ceived, several hundred in number, are
hung upon a netting, covering an en-
tire wall. They represent a wide
variety of subjects, such as plants,
flowers, pottery, vegetables, fruit and
landscapes. Three of the paintings,
coming from the Sibley, the Ramsey
and the Murray schools, are pro-
nounced the best in the collection.
One, representing a thistle, is so well
drawn and colOred as to be regarded
as the finest.
Basket work forms an important
part of the exhibit. The baskets are
so skillfully woven as to appear TO be
the products of trained artisans. The
collection includes baskets of a great
variety Of shapes and colors.
A large number of botanical draw
ings have been received from the high
schools, and will be forwarded to the
exposition. Photographs and recipes
will represent the department of do
nestle science of the high schools, and
the classes of the Mechanic Arts high
school will send drawings and imple
ments manufactured in the school
rooms One class is at work upon a
chair which will be sent.
