INSURANCE question is PRESENTED
Connecticut Board of Trade Hears
RepOrt from Its Committee

Connecticut Board of Trade Hears
Report from Its Committee.
HARTFORD, Conn, Oct 2.-At a meet
ing of the State Board of Trade held here
today the report OF the committee of under
writer's on the proposed federal supervision
OF insurance was presented.
The report says that the occasion for
present action on the matter is due to a
letter upon the subject from Senator Dry
den, asking for expressions OF opinion and
answers TO his inquiries.
The report says that II is conceded that
federal supervision of insurance can be
accomplished in but one way, namely, by
a constitutional law declaring insurance to
be commerce; and also, that II Insurance
is not commerce, congress has not power
to regulate it. The whole theory Of the
proposed regulation of power rests on these
propositions The report continues:
II Ia sought to establish federal control
Of insurance and TO take the chances on
the constitutional questions, through bill
In the next congress, modelled on che Dry
den bill OF the last session with slight
modifieations;' that is; through an amend
OF Labor and Commerce; adding TO the
bureau OF corporations an officer called the
superintendent Of insurance, in charge of a
division TO be called the division OF insur-
ance and following in general lines the
powers and duties that already obtain In
the legislation OF various states as to SUI
In oud belief all these propositions are
theoretical; they rest on inference and con-
lecture, not on presidents and facts, and
They are all confronted by serious OBJ
stacles Chief among them Is the con-
trolling fact that In series Of decisions
has declared and affirmed that Insurance Il
not commerce.

Few People Know How Useful IL IL
IN PreservfhR Health and Beauty,
Nearly everybody knows that charcoal is
the safest and most efioient dsiufectant
and purifier in nature but few realize It's
value When taken into the human system
for the same cleansing purpose.
Charcoal IL a remedy that the more you
take OF Il the better; Il is not a drug at
all, but simply absorbs the gases and Inn
purities always present IN the stomach and
intestines and carries them out Of the
system
Charcoal sweetens the breath after smok-
ing, drinking or after eating onions and
other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and improves
the complexion. It whitens the teeth and
further acts as a natural and eminently
safe cathartic. ESQ
1t absorbs the injurious gases which col
iect In the stomach and bowels; Il disin-
fects the mouth ana throat from the poison
Of catarrh. I
All druggists sell charcoal in one form or
another, but probably the best charcoal
and the most for the money Is In Stuart
Charcoal Lozenses. They are composed OF
the finest powdered willow charcoal and
other harmless antlseptics 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 condition of the
general health, better complexion, sweeter
breath and purer blood, and the beauty Of
1t is that no possible harm can result from
their continued use. but, on the contrary,
great benefit. -'-f --f
A Buffalo physician in speaking of the
benefits of charcoal says: Il advise
