they would defeat any proposition
for new buildings and graded
school Finding that nothing could
be done in the way, the meeting ad.

better schools just where IL stood
before the first meeting. If the
county superintendent of schools
will take action aud Withhold the

it might result in the betterment of
our schools.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful it is
 in Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal is the safest and most efficient disinfect- ant and purifier in nature but few real iza 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 ach and intestines and carries them out of the system.
 Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating onions and other ororous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually cleans and im- proves the complexion, 1t whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and emnently safe cathartic.
 It absorbs the injurious gases which col lect- in the stomach and bowels: 1t disin- fleets the mouth and throat from the pol son of catarrh.
 All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probabl ythe best char coal 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, pleasant-tasting lozenges. the char coal being mixed with honey.
 The daily use of these lozenges will soon tell in a much improved condition of the general health better complexion, sweeter breath and purer blood, and the beauty of it is, that no possible harm can resui: from their continued use, but on the con- trary, great benefit.
 A Buffalo physician, in speaking of the benefits of charcoal says: T advise Stuart's Absorbent Lozenges to all pa tients suffering from gas in stomach and bowels. and to clear the complexion and purify 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 better charcoal in Stuarts Absorbent Lozenges than in any of the ordinary charcoal tablets" eoWk-tf.
