THE VALUE or CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful it is i'm
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 a remedy that the more
YOU take of it the better; 1t Is not a
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present In
the stomach and intestines ana 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, 1T whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural
and eminently safe cathart1c.

CORRUPT OFFICIAL
A Common Gamester,
Says the Governor.
He Thus Characterizes Former Aud
itor Sherrick, Whose Dismissal He
Explains in an Address 10
The Military.
(By the Associated Press

Hamilton, Ind, Sept. 19.--In an ad-
dress at the reunion of Thirtieth In
diana regiment today Governor Han
ley, the principal speaker, made pub
lie his reasons for his action in the
case of David E. Sherrick, eX-Auditor
of the State, whose resignation was
forced by the governor. Facts and
figures were used to show what be-
came of the States money lost by
David E. Sherrick, late auditor of
State. The governor charged that
$4,000 of the States money went by
check into the hand of the gentleman
who was then operating the casino
at French Lick. The governor then
enumerated a list of what he calls
wild cat securities aggregating a
face value of $4,000 into which the
States money went. Following this
he charged that Sherrick's continued
absence from the sessions of the State
board of tax commissioners was oc-
casioned by drinking bouts and mid
night carousals around the gaming
table from which he could not recover
in time to meet with the commits
sion"
He charged that Sherrick, at the
time the Monon Railroad came up
for assessment argued that the assess
ment be allowed to remain at $4,000
because in that case a friend of his
to whom he was under great obliga-
ton personally could get permanent
employment with the company if the
assessment could be kept $4,000. This
part of the speech concluded:
There is evidence overwhelming
and convincing that Mr.. Sherrick,
auditor of State, was common
gamester and that he was at the time
of his resignation and has been for
two years in the habit of losing large
sums of money, not his, but yours
at the gaming table. Certain people
claim that gambling and an open door
to vice are essential to the material
prosperity of municipal communities.
/ do not think so. But you are the
jury 1t is for you to decide.

If they would SEND their transports

For three weeks, the office of the
auditor of State was made a broker

passes to such members of the Cen
eral Assembly as would receive them.
Governor Hanly said Sherlock S
friends told him that money dould
be raised to repay the deficit provided
the affair was kept secret and Sher-
rick was retained in office. This money
Governor Hanley asserted, would have
been furnished by railroad interests.
