THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful 1t 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 remedy that the more
you take of it the better; it is not .
drug at ali, 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 or other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion, it whitens the
teeth and further acts as 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 probaly the best
charcoal and the most for the money
is in Stuart's Charcoal LeZenges; 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 charcoal being mixed
with honey.
The daily use of these lozenges will
soon tell in a much improved condi-
tion of the general health. better COM
rlexion, sweeter breath and pure
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
the benefits of charcoal says: 81 ad.
wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all
patients suffering from gas in stom-
ach 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 box at drug stores. and al
tnough IN some sense patent prepa-
ration. yet I believe I get more and
better charcoal in Stuarts Charcoal
Lozenges than in any of the ordinary
charcoal tablets"

HE SPOILED THE EFFECT.
Chump Didn't See the Engine Was
Going the Other Way and
Blundered.

He had for days been trying to gain
an encouraging look from the disdain-
full damsel, and now ait last it seem

the chance of lfetime-had arrived,

She had been tripping over the COM
mon in front of him, but in crossing
the railway line she appeared to have
got her foot fixed in the points, for
she stood and screamed Justify.
The young man dashed like light
ming to her assistance. for only few
hundred yards away the headlight of
an engine glowed through the dusk.

gle, Miss Bellairs-Arminta; I will
save YOU" And he whipped out his
penknife.
"Oh, don't!' she exclaimed
II must he insisted; cit is the only
way
She tried to protest, but grasping
her waist with one protecting arm he
stopped and cut the shoe lace. Then
wrenching her dainty foot from tlls
shoe, he threw her frenziedly onto
the bank. With the effort he lost his
balance, but not his presence Of mind
for with a spring like that of fish, he
hurled himself from the rails onto
the bank.
He arose painting and breathless, to
find the young lady angrily trying to
brush the mud from her gown.
''You hateful mani she exclaimed.
For moment he was stupefied.
"What-wkat-I beg your PARTON.
he stammered.
"You've spoiled my best Dress she
said, viciously; you've cut my fo.2,
and ruffled my hair I'm in a drea i
full state. And | kept trying to tell
you that the engine was going the
other way!"
He looked up mechanically. Yes, it
was true. The engine was nearly out
.; sight.

bank and limped awav. while the
young man, blighted and nespa iring
object, turned away to muse on the
nerversity cf women and the futiIity
