1t Due Congressman Thomas For
the $4,000 Appropriation
for This Work.
Especial to News and Observer

Especial TO News and Observer
New Bern, N. c., Sept 27.-The
steam suction dredge Cape Fear
which has been working i'm the lower
Cape Fear river at Wilmington is
now at work on Beaufort harbor The
project under which the dredge is at
work is to deepen the bar to 20 feet
at low water. which with the rise and
fall of the tide will give "a feet depth,
conforming the depth on the bar to
the channel depth up to the railroad
terminus at Morehead City.
The bar is about one-half a mile in
width. The amount of the pres ant
appropriation is 5000 for this
work. 1t is an important work.
There has been some discussion as
to whom the credit is due for this
appropriation. In a letter from Hon.
T. f.. Burton, chairman of the Com-
mittee on Rivers and Harbors, which
is published in the Journal is is said
that credit for obtaining action by the
Rivers and Harbors' Committee
clearly belongs to Congressman
Thomas, the Representative of the
district He says: 81 am thoroughly
familiar with the facts and can speak
not only for myneif, but for the 9TH
er members of the committee" This
letter is published, in view of the fact
that now that work has started, ru
mors are circulated that parties out
side of North Carolina secured this ap
preparation The emphatic statement
of Chairman Burton settles the Ques-
ton as to whom credit IS due for
thin particular item.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful it is lii
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 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 carries
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 eminently safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels;
it 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 Stuarts Charcoal
Lozenges; they are composed or the
finest powdered WILLOW CHARCOAL and
other harmless antiseptlcs in tablet
form or rather in the form of large,
pleasant tasting lozehses' the charcoal
being mixed with honey.
The daily use of these lozenges will
soon tell in a much improved condi-
ton of the general health better COM
nlexion sweeter breath and purer
blood and the beauty of it is, that no
possible harm can result from their
continued use, but on the contrary,
great benefit.
A Buffalo physician in speaking of
tho benefits of charcoal says. 81 adj
wise stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all
patients suffering from gas in stomach
and bowels, and to clear the complex
throat. 7 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 i'll
some sense a patent preparation. vet
believe T get more and better char
coal in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges
than in any of the ordinary charcoal
tablets

The Georgia people are again after
the copper companies at Ducktown
about the sulphur fumes from the
roast piles. The western portion of
our county is suffering to some extent
from these fumes When forced to do
so the companies will no doubt make
sulphuric acid from this smoke, which
will solve the problem and may be the
means Of saving the remaining stand

SCROFULA
FROM PARENT TO CHILD

The laws of heredity are invariablc
and the diseased blood of parents IS
handed down to children in the form OF
Scrofula Being thus deeply rooted
nothing can reach the disease but a con-
stitutional remedy. The very foundation
of the blood is diseased, and until 1t IS
purified and made strong, those who are
born with a scrofulous tendency cannot
have the blessing of robust health.

MRS. LOUISE COHEN,
S. S. S., the king of blood purifiers, is
the medicine that is required, because it
changes the quality of the blood by

the blood to healthy condition and
forced out the scrofulous deposits, there

II there il anything that will throw the

She fears the little animals as much as
she hates them. When she caught sight
Of this one she raised her head and brought
the curving double horn down on the rim
Of the trough to which the rat had been
clinging. The rat jumped to the floor
In time to escape the blow. But the big
beast didn't intend to let it go at that. She
abandoned her dinner and tried 10 catch
the rat which was hea ding for the back
Of the stall "0ofl oof!" grunted the rhino,
stepping out as fast as her weight would
let her. The rat ran under a heap Of
traw bedding and the rhino began TO

Then began a lively chase about the

wind. and the rat sat on top OF pile OF
straw and cooked saucy nose at her.
Billy Syndcr the elephant man, happened
along, ran outside for his fox terrier Daisy
and ordered her into tie stall. Daisy and
the rhino are friends and the rhino grunted
