THE VALUE or CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful II Is
in Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier In nature, but
few realize it's 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; Il is not a
drug at ALL but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present
In the stomach and intestines and car
ries them out OF the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating on
ions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and Inn
proves the complexion, II whitens the
teeth and further acts as natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
It absorbs the Injurious gases which
collect I'm the stomach and bowels; II
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison OF catarrh.
Ali druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another, but probably the
best charcoal and the most for the
money is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozen-
ges: they are composed OF the finest
powdered Willow charcoal, and other
harmless antlseptics IN tablet form or
rather In the form Of large. pleasant
tasting lozenges the charcoal being
mixed with honey.

there has been a radical change.

quoted above. lis I'm my opinion due
almost altogether to the change Of
environment which has been accom-
plished within the last twelve months.
Formerly the dissecting rooms OF
this medical school were OF the old

walls. From the very nature OF their
construction is was not possible to

there is little smoking and no disorder.

A New Era Dawned
The losses have been in part made
up and there has dawned upon the
country new era of progress and de-
velopment. A wonderful change has
come over the industrial and trade
situation within the last sixty days,
and the election verdict is taken to
mean a popular belief that 1t is TO
continue. There is every promise for
low rates for money until well along
into another year, and by that time the
existing supplies of unsoid railroad and
industrial bonds win have been abb
sorbed and capital realized thereon for
enlbarkation in active channels. II the
public should engage in another stock
gambling orgie this programme might
be interfered with, a contingency
which will be guarded against by the
banking interests and their associates
in every possible way. A return to
legitimate conditions will be encour-
aged as matter of course, but never
for a moment will the necessity for
preventing over-stimulation be forgot
ten.
The country viii not be allowed to
get drunk again on prosperity and go
to unsafe lengths. This in brief is
the purpose and plan of the men who
run the large affairs of Wall street.
The speculative pools and cliques will
be restrained in their efforts to whoop
things, up and their operations will bs
curtailed and held within reasonable
bounds. This may not be to their
liking, but it will be a measure Of

ing them by messengers is wen worth
while.
The messengers are an Interesting
lot. Some of the smaller growers act
as their own messengers. Some even
send their wives. and many send their
daughters or their sons, but the larger
growers send employees. Nobody has
ever counted them, but there must be
a hundred of the messengers all told,
and perhaps more. Each brings a
huge bundle-sometimes when the mes
senger is small of stature he will be
hidden completely by his beautiful bur
den, his appearance suggesting Moth
ing so much as a huge walking bou-
quet. Though the procession of flower
bearers is a very prominent feature OF
the streetscape, in the early hours of
the day just after the arrival of prac-
tically every train. il rarely persists

disintegrate, some going north and
some south. At Fourth avenue still
more dispense to the upper and the
lower parts of the island. and by the
time the procession has reached Fifth
avenue it has practically all melted
away.
Some years ago. even in the days of
the chrySanthemun s greatest early
vogue, there was a notion that its pop
ularity with the world of society would
he short-lived, but the truth is that,
after more than a dozen years of ia
vor it is this year more popular than
ever.
One of the reasons for this is the
fact that the growers of chrysanthe
NUNS have succeeded in doing some
thing which no one thought quite pos
sible but which the growers of all
sorts of flowers sought to do. This
was the exact matching of a flower
the most popular shade of the hour, a
peculiar, new warm orange, the exact
duplicate of which is to be found in no
other bloom
Chrysanthemums, unlike most other
popular fayorites, are produced only
in the fall, and so have no year round
vogue, but there is little doubt that at
this time of the year they have a much
greater vogue in New York than any
other flower whatsoever The Ameri-
can Beauty rose. holds its own the
year round. Despite the predictions
that it's popularity would wane made
every year since Introduction, it is
probable that more of them are
bought this year in New York than
ever before.
One reason for this is, of course,
that enough more of them are grown
now than heretofore to make them
somewhat cheaper. Not really cheap,
you know, but still, except at certain
seasons, within the occasional reach

WALL STREET GUARDING
AGAINST "A RUNAWAY MARKET
Will Put on the Brakes if Speculative Craze
Becomes Imminent
BY w. G. NICHOLAS.

New York, NOV. 1.-THE powerful
money interests in Wall street have no
desire to see a runaway stock market,
and will unquestionably put on the
brakes should the danger Of wild
speculative craze become imminent.
The election result is almost unani-
mously construed in the financial dis
trict as a popular Endorsement of the
stand pat" principle, and refusal
to encourage the introduction of dis
turbing elements into a comfortable
and healthful situation. At the same
time the need of repressive measures
is fully appreciated, and it may be
accepted that moderation will be In
sisted upon in stock movements as well
as in developments of every kind with
in the control of the leaders Of finance
and trade.
Disasters Of 1923 are fresh in mind
and every effort will be made to pre-
vent a repetition. These disasters
were greatly intensified by reason of
the riot of stock gambling and the flo
tation of watered enterprises. Car
ried away by the astounding progress
of national prosperity enterprising men
in every part of the country commit
ted the error of over-eXt ension and a
hard season of enforced reaction and
retrenchment followed, attended by
tremendous money losses which fell
on the most progressive element in
every community.
