Swiss Recognize Commercial Value o

Swiss Recognize Commercial Value Of
Their Scenery.
The commercial value of her seen.
cry to Switzerland has been computed
by Herr Freuler of Zurich, and what
this statistician finds is a most in
teresting confirmation of the fact that
Swiss prosperity Is conferred by the
foreign tourist. About 100000 people
visit the Alps every year, and 100000
people in all resort to the country for
pleasure. health or incidental business
In an average season they spend in
railway and steamboat fares e675,00O,
and in board and lodging, etc, e3,-
100000. What that means to Swift
zerland is best shown by the state
ment that nearly fifth of these sums
is disbursed ON railways and in ho-
tells by her own population. These
are useful figures. One stores them
up against day when It may be nee
essary to discuss shortcomings with
a hotelkeeper or a railway official
But we must be fair. DR., Freuler says
on the other hand that only e2,475,000
is clear proft-on a capital invest
ment of ,OO0,OOO-and on this
showing he holds that we get on
very cheaply. Well. It is a profit Of
II per cent Seeing that half the ho-
tells are open only for the season, and
cost very little for maintenance when
shut, some OF them must do uncom'
monty well.-Pall Mall Gazette.

The Settlement With
Shanghai Smith

IL IS easy 10 understand that there
was something more than hutter In
shipping circles in San Francisco, to
say nothing of the sailors boarding
houses, when a telegram reached that
city from New York which was ex-
panded as follows:
Admiral Sir Richard Dunn, whose
mysterious disappearance in San
Francisco three months ago caused
such great excitement. has arrived at
New York in command of the ship
California. He was. 1t appears, as
saulted and drugged, and put on

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

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal
is the safest and NOSE efficient disinfec-
tant and purifier in nature, but few real
ize its value when taken into the hu-
man system for the same cleansing pur-
pose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
YOU take of il the better; il is not a
drug at all bat 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 onions
and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion, il whitens tho
teeth and further acts as a natural and
eminently safe cathaTtic.
1t absOrbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; il
disinfeets the mouth and throat from the
