THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL
Few People Know How Useful II L
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 taker
into the human system for the same
cleansing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take of il the better; it is not 9
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present
in the stomach and intestines and
carries them out of the system.
Charcoal swetens this breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating
onions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm.
proves the complexion, it whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
It absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; it
disinfeets the mouth and throat from
the poison Of eatarrh.
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 fneA 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 eOndi.
lion of the general health, better ecr.-
plexion, sweeter breath and purtr
blood, and the beauy Of it is, that no
harm can result from their
use, but on the contrary,

A Buffalo physician in speaking Of
he benefits of charcoal, says: az ad- i

$28OO to Be DiStrlb-

Plan by Which County and
City and Farmers Are
to Co. O-Operate

County Judge Scott and Commission
ers Needham and Miley have beer
working hard on a plan at this tern
Of court to secuse cooperation between
tne citizens Of Salem, the farmers Of
the surrounding country and the coun'
Itv court for an extensive good roads
campaign. On this plan there will be
at least six or eight Of the main roads
leading out Of the capital city perma-
nently improved this coming year. The
preliminary arrangements are all COM
pleted and the work will be pushed 10
a conclusion.
This Improvement plan was originate
ed by a delegation of farmers and fruit
growers from Liberty and Rosedale
calling on Judge Scott and asking him
to adopt some plan by which the city
and county would meet the farmers
half way. The property owners on the
Garden road and Silverton road took
it up with a great deal of enterprise
and offered to put up 300 days work.
Il is expected that other roads will
follow suit when the people awaken to
the full opportunity Of the situation.
The present plan Of Judge Scott is
to have the citizens of Salem raise a |
fund Of $1,000 to encourage road build |
ing. To this sum the county court is |
10 add 40 per cent, or $500.
This fund will be divided into at least

George H. Stanton, 8. G. Armstrong
and Homer Armstrong, owning a
group of mining claims in the Kendall
district. on which considerable devel-
opment has been done, have let con-
tract for diamond drill exploration Of
the claims and the drilling will be
started this week. The owners are
extremely confident that they will
strike large body of rich gold ore
Their CLANS lie above the Billiard
claims, on which a very rich strike
was recently made, and adjcin a por
ton of the Billiard claims. Their po-
sition on the mountainside is such that
it is considered certain that the vein
runs through them. The owners have
been awaiting the result of the drill
ing on the Billiard claim before de-
termining what work they should do,
and the rich strike on the lower
claims has determined them to begin
drilling at once, in the firm belief that
they will reach body of ore fully as
rich and as extensive as that devel-
oped on the Billiard claims.
The biggest nugget in the world.
one which contains ninety per cent
silver and weighs 397 pounds, is the
striking feature of Colorado's mineral
display in the mines and metallurgy

The silver contained in the nugget
if counted, would make 6,640 silver
dollars. It was taken from the ia

Pitikin county. This mine has produc-
ed silver and gold worth $14,000,00O
and has another $1,000,000 worth in
sight.
Several ores which contain radium
are displayed by Colorado. The min
eral cornotite, which contains one
three-thousandth of one per cent Of
this most valuable mineral, is the
richest Of these. Cornotite is yellow
substance, somewhat resembling fine
sand, and is valuable for staining Bo
