ITALIAN KING
LOOKS AHEAD
in Favor of Measures
for Bettering Conditions
of the Working Classes
HE OPENS PARLIAMENT
Refers to Country's Prosper
Gus State as Due to Peace
and Friendship of Nations

ROME, Nov. 30.-King Victor EN-
manuel reopened Parliament to-day.
From his seat in the Senate at the
Plaza Madama the King read the
speech from the throne, expressing lib
eral and peaceful principles, which were
enthusiastically applauded.
The hall of the Senate was crowded
and there was an especially brilliant
gathering in the diplomatic tribune,
where the United States was represent
ed by ambassador and Mrs. Myer. The
whole assembly stood and applauded
for several minutes when the King and
Queen entered. In his speech the King
said in part:
When for the first time 1 spoke be-
fore Parliament / affirmed my strong
belief in liberty. My experience since
then has confirmed my belief and has
persuaded me that only with liberty
can the ponderous problems now stand
ing before all the peoples of the world,
raised by the new aspirations and new
attitudes of the social forces, be solved.
Ny Government will continue to follow
the policy Of granting ample liberty
within the limits of the law"
The King then announced the intro
duction of bills having the object of
progressively elevating the condition of
the working classes. facilitating an
equitable and peaceful solution of the
conflicts between capital and labor,
substituting cooperation among all
classes for struggles and replacing
strikes which xricf nr7Ixy
the strongest by arbitration, which
means victory for justice"
The King then referred to the con-
clusion of commercial treaties with
Germany, Switzerland and Austria
Hungary, and remarked:
Italy has been the first to demon
strate that the protectionist current
dominating the world does not prevent
commercial agreements when govern
ments are guided by sentiments of
equity and solidarity
He insisted on the necessity for main
tanning the balance of the budget and
the strength of the army and navy, and
said in conclusion:
1.-The economic condition of Italy is
making evident progress, as demon
strated by the high quotations of state
bonds. which have reached figures new
er before attained, the disappearance
of exchange on gold. the large amount
of capital coming in. the increase in the
deposits in the savings banks, the
growing commercial activity, the devel-
opment:of the industries and the unlim-
tied credit enjoyed by the treasury of
the state. Fhis happy condition has
been reached. chiefly through peace, as
sured by solid alliances and sincere
friendships and emphasized by the af-
fectionate demonstrations which oc-
Cured at the time of the visits to Rome
of the German Emperor, the King of
England and the President of France.
Arbitration treaties have been con-
cluded with France. Great Britain and
Switzerland, while negotiations with
the United States and other countries
are well advanced. Thus Italy contin-
ues her mission of peace

ADVERTISEMENTS.
THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It.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; it 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 i'm
proves the complexion; it whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural
and eninentIy safe cathartic-
1t 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 Lozen-

The daily use OF these lozenges will
soon tell in a much improved cOndi-
ton Of the general health, better COM
plexion, sweeter breath and purer

possible harm can result from their
continued use. but, on the contrary,

Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all pa
tients suffering from gas in stomach
and bowels and to clear the complex
ion and purify the breath. mouth and
throat; I also believe the liver Is
greatly benefited by the daily use of
them; they cost but % cents a box at
drug stores and although in some
sense a patent preparation, yet I be-
lieve I get more and better charcoal
in Stuart's Charcoal LOzenges than in

received two messages from New York
during the day, one of which bore the
signature of Judge Albaugh. sThis dis
patch stated that Judge Albaugh was
on his way to Oberlin from New York
and that he had with him securities
great enough to cover the loan which
was made through the Oberlin Bank to
Mrs. Cassie Chadwick.
Beckwith now openly refers to the
loss in it's entirety as $500, 900 loan.
This, he now says, covers in a general
way the loans made through the bank
and by him personally. He said to-
night:
People have wondered why a woman
having all the property that she has
and with so large an income should
continue to be asking for loans. Mrs.
Chadwick has not had the handling of
her own assets for some time While
there is not exactly guardian. it al
most borders on that. She is in posi-
tion where she cannot touch one dol
lar of her income or principal. 1t is
so tied up that she is absolutely help
less. This man who looks after her
finances is in sole control.
Il have seen three chests full of
jewels owned by Mrs. Chadwick. There
were diamonds worth a kings ran
som. She would hold them in her hand
and fondle them.
MRS. CHADWICK'S PARENTAGE.
1T has been suggested that she was
an adopted child of the Canadian fam
lily with whom she lived. Well, guess
that is true. 1 don't think that Mrs.
Chadwick herself knew who she was
or whence she came prior to four or
five years ago. 1 cannot tell how she
discovered it"
But how could a woman knowing
so little about herself accumulate the
vast fortune that she says she has?"
was asked.
Have 1 not told you enough already
so that you can see how she might
have come into the possession of much
that she has? Are you still wondering
how she secured all the securities that
she has? 1 can add nothing to what /
have told you. This did not come from
her, but think know what I am talk
