THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful IL Is in
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Preserving Health and Beauty.
Nearly everybody knows that char
ccal is the safest and most efficient
dlsinfectant 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 ii the better; it 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 odorous vegetables
Charcoal effectually clears and inn
proves the complexion, il whitens the
Tee IN and further acts as a natural and
eminently safe cathartic.
L. absOrbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; IL
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
lczenges. the charcoal being mixed
with horey.
The daily use Of these lozenges will
soon tell in a much improved condi-
fion Of the general health. better com
plexion. sweeter breath and purer
blood, and the beauty of il is that no
possible harm can result from their
continued use. but on the contrary
great benefit

the benefits Of charcoal. says: II ad-
wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all
patients suffering from gas in stomach
and bowels, and 10 clear the COM
! lexlon and purify the breath. mouth

BRIDAL PAIR LOCKED UP.

Quite the worst dose yet meted out
to any arriving bridal couple at Allan
tic City recently was the portion of a
pair of just married ones who got in
from Scranton a few weeks ago. I'M
known to the bridegroom dozen or so
of his bachelor pals preceded him and
his bride down there
When the couple left the train the
bridegroom recognized his friends. but
suspected no mischief, fancying that
the hazing business had all been fin
ished in Scranton. His friends edged
him and his wife to the curb where the
hotel buses were drawn up.
The hotel buses there all look like
covered express wagons. Into one of
them the bride and bridegroom were
adroitIy hustled. The rear door was
banged to, the snap lock caught and
then the bridal couple were in trouble.
The vehicle was literally an express
wagon, Of the sort used by express
companies for the delivering of va1ua-
Bile packages and money, with iron
screening at the sides and back. There
We're no seats in it, of course.
As soon as the couple had been
hustled into the wagon the wooden
sides and back were taken down by
the bridegroom's Indian friends, and
there the young couple stood, In a sure
enough cage The driver started the
horses, and the Just married ones had
to hang on to each other for dear life
when the wagon passed over rough
spots I'm the road.
Thus Gagged, and cIingfng to each
other, they were driven to their hotel.
more than a mile from the station.
The bridegroom was frothing at the
mouth with wrath when the wagon
pulled up at the hotel, and the bride. in
her dainty travelling gown, looked as if
she had lot Of things on her mind,
too
The bridegroom's bachelor pals had
preceded the wagon to the hotel in a
carriage, but they didn't respond to the
bridegroom's loudly detained invita-
ton to get close enough to him to have
their heads punched off. They kept
their distance, and shouted back to him
that they didn't want to fight, because
they felt so happy.

pressing effect of a long sea voyage, was so extremely ugly that he had to be muzzled In fact. he was so vicious that only the awe-inspiring presence of huge elephant on each side prevented his running away and clearing the streets. As an inmate of stationary zoo, Bedouin would not have been so dangerous: but in a circus menagerie. where men and beasts are crowded and where frequent handling of the animals Is necessary, he was a risky captive to have around. Exactly like an ugly horse, he poked back his ears, gave vent to harsh. weird, rasping cry, and snapped and bit and kicked so no one could near him.
 One morning a mschievous. half grown black bear found a plank loose in his cage. ripped 1t up, widened the hole, and darted from tent to tent, pursued by a. score of animal men who finally cor nered him In front of the stall of the bad camel. From the moment the in- .ruder appeared the ugly beast prepared for attack. Ears thrown back, mouth and nostris wide open, the ordinarily stoid camel-face was distorted with de- mon-lke fury. In vain the man tried to head off the bear. He backed more and more towards the rogue. unmndful of danger until, with incredible speed, the yellow head sent forth like that of a py- thon. With a wierd cry of defiance, as if the heavy bear were mere whisp of hay. with his big mouth he grasped the unfortunate by the neck, lifted him high from the floor. and the next moment poor Bruin was underfoot. The mad camel jumped up and down on his fore legs until the fine young beast lay un- recognizable and fattened like a piece of plotting paper.

 brothers on other continents do not fear even the terrific onslaughts of lions and tigers, are In state of almost continual warfare. Eagerly cropping grass from a meadow, or luXuriously wallowing in the swamp mud of their ranges, a herd of these giant. brown ponderous headed. shaggy patriarchs make a scene of peace and contentment Yet they are among the wickedest rogues and most aggrcs- siVe fighters ever seen in a zoo. Sulleu and ugly, they often become furious to madness without the least provocation. and frequently attack one another with serious or fatal results.
 A fight of this sort was that between Antonio a king of rogues in the flne herd al the New York Geological park, and "Back Beauty" a young. magnif- cent. full grown bull.

Down vert the nose toward the ground, the short thick horns showing through the shaggy tan gle of hair, and with the Hugh! hugh!" of fury escaping the wide. red nostrlls at every bound, he charged headong, like an animated, irresistible catapult.
