years, husband Of an adorable wife and father of
children, Cotton could do little but admit hi3
guilt and ask the public which had trusted him
SO long to be lenient.
Little leniency was shown. however, by the
bank officials night before last when the short

was to secure light sentence at the hands of

TINE, VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It Is i,
Preserving 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 al 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 odorous vegetables.
Charcoal eHectually clears and i'm
teeth and further acts as natural and
eminently safe cathartic.
It absorbs the Injurious gases which
/ collect in the stomach and bowels; it
disinfects the mouth and throat from
i 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
i Willow charcoal, and other harmless
tantiseptics in tablet form, or, rather,
in the form Of large, pleasant tasting
