THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful it ia I,
 Preserving Health and Beauty.


 Preserving Health and Beauty.
 Nearly everybody knows that char coal Is the safest and most eflcieot disinfectant 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 1t the better; 1t 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 on- ions and other odoFous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually clears and i'm. proves the complexion. it whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartic.
 It abscrbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; ir disinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarFh.
 All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probably the beat charcoal and the most for the money is in StuaTt's Charcoal LoEenges; thev 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 charcoal being mixed with honey.
 The daily use of these lozenRes will soon tell in a much improved condition of the general health, better complex- ion, sweeter breath and purer blood and the beauty of it Is, that no possibIe harm can result from their continued use. but on the contrary. great benefit
 A Buffalo physician. in speaking nf the benefits of charcoal. says: 'I ad- wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in stomach and bowels. and to clear the complex ion and purify the breath, mouth and throat: also believe the liver is great Iy benefited by the daily use of them; they cost but twenty-five cents a box at drug stores. and although in some sense e patent preparation. yet I be- lieve set more and better charcoal in stnart's Charcoal Lozenges than in any of the ordinary charcoal tablets

 All of yesterday the church was fre- quented by large numbers whosavailed themselves of Sacramental NCoilfession as prescribed by Catholic dogma, and when Father Slevin addressed the cou- gregation last night on The Particu- lar Judgment" in an siegant yet forci- ble manner. he was greeted with re- newed interest by a crowded church.
 Taking his text from St Paul. the Reverend Father dlscoursed admirably on the fear and trembling of that dread day when the human soul will stand alone before the majesty of just and scrutinizing God to render an account of its works. sNk
 The Judgment Day.e he said, "wtll be day of justice, stern and unconl- promising, and we shall all then stand before a tribunal from which there is no appeal. Today Is the day of mercy. now is the acceptable time, now is the day of salvation but on that day. the mercy and love that now pursue us shall have passed and God shall be slothed in the garb of strictest justice The good shall be rewarded, the evil punished. for every law must have Q sanction. Shall the Judgment Day be one of reward or condemnation? It Is for man to choose"

WOODED HER IN WAR TIME.

 Hearts United.
 New York Herald. 1s GOFF-ULMER-In this city, October 8, 1904, by Rev. William B. Tower, pas
 tor of the Washington Square Meth
 odist Church. pr. Cleveland Willis
 Con of New York city. and Mrs. Jane
 Lawson Ulmer, of Savannah, Ga.
 By the foregoing announcement, pulp lished in this mornings Herald, many friends of physician well known in his forty years practice in this city will be surprised that an elderly man, long ago given up as a hopeless bach elor. has taken unto himself a wife.
 Few will know that 1t also marks the good story book" ending of a war time romances beginning in Newburn, N. C., in 1862. It does not lose it's in- terest because Mrs. Con, herself white haired, told 1t last night.
 pr. Golf was a young physician in Rochester when the call to arms came in 1881. He enlisted in the Sd New York Cavalry. known as Van Allen Cavalry, serving first as quartermaster. then rising to the rank of captain ana later doing duty as a surgeon.
 Dr. Con was with the army that oc- cupied Newburn, N.. C.. in 1862. There he met Miss Jane Lawson, daughter of a local merchant, and, needless to say, a very ardent sympathizer of the South ern cause. The young surgeon fell in love with her.
 T am sure that my treatment of Dr. Gof was not the kindliest," said his wife last night. Tn those days, of course, we could see nothing good in the Yankees. But he was persistent"
 There was a young Confederate ofi- cer in the case at the time. He was. James Ulmer. and he was also in love with Miss Lawson. That made Dr. Gon's suit impossible and he was told so plainly. What he said when he learned this was not revealed last night, but he continued to urge his suit even after the war closed.
 That was all ended when. a few years after the war, Miss Lawson became Mrs. Ulmer. and moved to Savannah, where her husband went into business
 Dr. Golf returned to New York and began the practice of medicine. He had many patients. amassed a comfort able fortune, travelled extensively, and in the opinion of his friends was man whose heart had never been affected by any woman.
 Ii is likely that the story would have ended here had not Mrs. U1mer paid a visit to this city in October. MT. Ulmer had died three years before. There were no children. She was comforta- bly we'll off and liked to travel.
 She did not know exactly how 1t hap named. but one day at her hotel she thought of Dr. Golf and wondered if he were still living. A directory gave his address and she called there.
 Mrs. Gof laughed last night when she came to this part of the story.
 Tt was the doctor,' she said. ''of course he had changed. For that mat ter both of us were, well, a little older. but we were soon chatting about old times during the war. Then" Mrs. Con hesitated and chuckle came from her husband.

GOLD IN BUILDING BRICKS.
California Town May Be Rich and No Know 1t.

Sacramento Bee.
 A small hole was drilled in the wall of room of the Union Hotel building at Oroville, occupied by a bar, and small pieces of brick were left in the gutter.
 Yesterday morning J. B. Webber, proprietor of a meat market, was standing in front of the hotel building when he espied a piece of brick which looked good to him. He picked it up and upon examination it was found to be literally filled with glittering gold.
 Webber says he has a genuine gold brick, and very rich one at that, but complains that 1t Is not large enough.
 Just how much gold is in the brick of this building and others of the town will never be known, but MT. Webber's find proves beyond a doubt that some of tn ebrick in the blocks of OrOvilIe have gold in noticeable quantities.
