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 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 car ries them out of the system.
 Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or eating onions and other odorous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually clears and im- proves the complexion. 1t whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe catnartic.
 It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; 1t 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 Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoal. and other harmless antisep ptics in tablet form or rather in the form of large, pleasant tasting lozenges, the charcoal being mixed with honey.
 The daily use of these Iozenges will soon tell in a much improved condition of the general health, better complex. ion, sweeter breath and pureI blood and the beauty of 1t Is. that no possi- ble harm can result from their contin. ued use. but on the contrary. great benefit.
 A Buffalo physician in speaking oi the benefits of charcoal. says: T ad. wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to al patients suffering from gas in stomach and bowels, and to clear the complex. ion and purify the breath. mouth anC throat; I also believe the liver is great. ly benefited by the daily use of them they cost but twenty-five cents a boz I at drug stores. and although in som' sense a patent preparation, yet be 1ieve I get more and better charcoa than in any of the ordinary charcoa tablets

VERY FEW PEOPLE.
Are Free From Some Form of Indi
 RAMtiOu.

Are Free From Some Form of Indi-
 gestiOn.
 Vrey few people are free from some form of indigestion, but scarcely two will have the same symptoms.
 Some suffer most directly after eat ing, bloating from gas in stomach and bowels, other have heartburn or sour risings, still others have palpitation of heart, headaches, sleeplessness, pains ine chest and under shoulder blades, sohe nave extreme nervousness. as in nervous dyspepsia.
 But whatever the symptoms may be. the cause in all case of indigestion is the same, that is the stomach TOT some some reasan fails to properly and promptly digest what is eaten.
 This is the whole story of stomach troubles in a nutshell. The stomach must have rest and assistance and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets give it both by supplying those natural digestives which every weak stomach lacks. ow- ing to the failure of the peptic glands in the stomach to secrete sufficient acid and pepsin to thoroughly digest and assimilate the food eaten.
 One grain of the active principle in Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest 5000 grains of meat, eggs or other wholesome food, and this claim has been proven by actual experiment. which anyone can perform for him self in the following manner: Cut a hard boiled egg into very small pieces, as 1t would be if masticated; place the egg and two or three tablets in a bottle or jar containing warm water heated to 9S degrees (the temperature of the body) and keep 1t at this tenn perature for three and one-half hours. at the end of which time the egg will be as completely digested as 1t would have been in the healthy stomach of a hungry boy
 The point of this experiment is that what Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets will do to the egg in the bottle they will do to the egg or meat in the stomach and nothing else will rest and invig- crate the stomach so safely and effec- tually. Even d little child can take Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets with safety and benefit if it's digestion is weak and the thousands of cures accom- pIished by their regular daily use are easily explained when it is understood that they are composed of vegetable essences, aseptic, pepsin. diastase and Golden Seal, which mingle with the food and digest 1t thoroughly, giving the overworked stomach a chance to recuperate.
 Dieting never cures Dyspepsia, neith CT do pills and cathartic medicines. which simply irritate and inflame the lntestines.
 When enough food is eaten and promptly digested there will be no constipation nor in fact will there be disease of any kind because good digestion means good health in every organ
 The merit and success of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are world-wide and they are sold at the moderate price of SO cents for full sized package in every drug store in the United States and Canada. as wAu ss t@ Enrona

and Madison. For many years 1t form ed part of Culpepper but in 1883 was cut off and the town of Washington made its county seat It was originally settled by the Strother and Thornton families. who in the early history of the country after long lanquishing in the depressing climate of the tide water counties, at length sought the higher and healthier counties afforded by the mountains of Virginia. Three of the handsomest county seats in the country were built and owned by the Thornton family. Hawthorne" and Montpelier" and Thornton Hill" The two former are in the Frank Thornton valley (named for Frank Thornton), both are surrounded by spacious lawns and grand old forest trees; the houses large and built of stone and both were famed for the hospitality that was as unostentatious as 1t was unbounded.
 Montpelier was built by Colonel Frank Thornton of Fall Hill who lived near Fredericksburg and married Miss Gregory of King George County. Virginia.
 Thornton Hill" was built by Colonel John Thornton, who married Jane Washington, niece of General George Washington. GenI Washington on one occasion spent several days with his niece at Thornton Hill" and from there went to visit his kinsman Colonel Champe, who lived at Champlare in another part of the county, one of the most magnificent estates in Virginia. That night everything was in readi- ness to receive the distinguished guest, but the old-fashioned wood fires and possibly defective chimney resulted In the total destruction by fire of the noble old Virginia mansion, and the General with the rest of the family only saved themselves by flying from the burning house In the night. Thornton Hill is beautifully situated on a hill which slopes rather abruptly to a gem tie stream.

Throat Affected by Catnrrh.
 Rev. H. W. Tate. 471 s. 11th Street. Columbus, Ohio, writes:
 For several years I have been troubled with a peculiar spasmodtc af- lection of the throat. It would siege me suddenly and for a few minutes would be unable to speak audibly, and my breath would be greatly in terfered with. I would be obliged to gasp for breath.
 "I finally concluded that 1t was some catarrhal affection which probably ex- cited the spasm. 1t interferred with my vocation as a preacher, attacking me occasionally ih the pulpit.
 'I had heard so much about Peruna as a catarrh remedy that l determined to try it. After taking two bottles my trouble has disappeared. feel surt that Peruna has greatly benefited me-"
 For catarrh of the respiratory or gans, no remedy has ever been found to equal Peruna.

For many years the clergy have been praising Peruna. By the humblest pastor and the most exalted bishop, Pe- runa Is held in nigh esteem.
 These professional gentlemen como in contact with the facts of society. They are acquainted with homes and know the real life of the people.
 They have seen Peruna in thousands of households. They know of its ben eficial results. They hear 1t dis |cussed by their parishioners and praised by all classes.
 It is therefore no wonder that the clergymen almost unanimously believe in Peruna.
 Remarkable Cures Effected.
 Many remarkable cures have been made among the clergy themselves by Peruna. The vocation of preaching is constant strain to the voice. Diseases of the larynx and the lungs ar common among the preachers. Pe-
