A meeting between brothers who
had not seen each other for twenty
years came about in a queer way at
Boston recently.
Among those who attended the
Grand Army encampment were ]. r..
McKelvey and William Dawson of
Washington, ID. C. McKelvey and
Dawson work alongside each other in
the government printing office, and are
chums. They are both members of
the Grand Army of the Republic, and
have attended encampments together
for years. Before departing from
Washington for Boston they made an
agreement with each other that Meth
er would take a drink while the en-
campment lasted
One morning when McKelvey went
down into the cafe of the Clarendon
hotel he saw his friend Dawson, as he
thought, with glass of whisky in
front of him. He walked up to him,
and just as Dawson was about to put
the glass to his mouth McKelvey
stayed his arm.
DIN DaWSouS HS Sdiu, TSpfUdCn-
fully, Il thought you promised me that
you wouldn't take drink while we
were In Boston?"
Il reckon, stranger, you're on the
wrong lay" said the man with the
whisky, as he turned and looked
straight at McKelvey.
McKelvey was as surprised as the
man whom he had accosted for mo-
ment He saw at glance that the
man was not his friend bill" Daw-
son, although he bore remarkable re-
semblance to him.

ENTERTAINMENTS.
Hyperion Theater.


 William H. Thompson. the star of James K. Hackett's production of The Secret of Poliehinelle," at the Hyperion theater tonight, has played many great parts with very great success, but the one he is enacting at present is the greatest as well as the most suc- cessful of all he has ever undertaken. M Jouvenal Is an old Frenchman of a type common in France but one which Americans might think unique, for to an American business man it seems in- conceivable that an individual could be so simple, so easily amused and content with such humdrum surroundings. Yet the way audiences applaud nightly shows that even the commercial Amer ican can appreciate sentiment when it is cleyerly portrayed. The Secret of |aPoliehinelle" is the seasons comedy success beyond doubt, and was the most talked of play in New York last winter.
 The same excellent company supports MT. Thompson which received such high praise from the New York critics. w J. Ferguson, Drina de Wolfe and Ida, Darling are of the. cast.

TUE VALUE oE cHARcoAL.
Few People Know How Useful It Is in
 Preserving Health and Beauty.

3 | 4
 Nearly everybody knows that char ;oal is the safest and most efficient dis infectant and purifier in nature but lew realize it's value when taken into he human system for the same cleans ilg purpose.
 Charcoal is a remedy that the more ,ou take of it the better; 1t is not a Irug at all, but simply absorbs the sasses and impurities always present n the stomach and intestines and car aes them out of the system.
 Charcoal sweetens the breath after Ifnoking, drinking or after eating onions Lnd other odorous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually clears and inn proves the complexion, it Whitens the eeth and further acts as a natural and Ininently safe eathartic.
 It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; it Iisinfects the mouth and throat from he poison of catarrh.
 All druggists sell charcoal in one orm or another, but probably the best .harcoal and the most for the money is h Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered Willow kDdTCOdl nStablet form or rather in the form of arge, pleasant tasting lozenges, the charcoal being mixed with honey.
 The daily use of these lozenges will soon tell in a much improved condition if the general health, better complex on. sWeeter breath and purer blood, tnd the beauty of it is, that no possible ,arm can result from their continued ise, but on the contrary, great benefit.
 A Buffalo physician in speaking of he benefits of charcoal. says: T advise stuart,s Charcoal Lozenges to all pa tents suffering from gas in stomach tnd bowels, and to clear the complex on and purifygt the breath, mouth and Ilroat; I also believe the liver is great benefited by the daily use of them; hey cost but twenty-five cents a box tt drug stores, and although in some ,ense patent preparation, yet believe [ get more and better charcoal in Stu irt's Charcoal Lozenges than in any bf the ordinary charcoal tablets"
