THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Pew People Know HOW UsefEi It Is in
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly every body knows that charcoal Is the
safest and most efficient disinfecte.t and
purifier in nature, but Few realize its value
when taken into the human system for the
same cleansing purpose.
Charcoal Is a remedy that the more you
take Of 1t the better: il is not drug al all.
but simply absorbs he gases ana impurities
always present in the stomach and Intcs-
tines and carries them out OF the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after s-nclS ng
drinking. OF after eating onions and other
odorous vegetables.
Charcoal efectually clears and improves
the complexion; it whitens the teeth and
further acts natural and eminently
safe cathartic.
II absorbs tne injurious gases which collect
in the stomach and bowe,s; 1t dis.nfects the
mouth and throat from the poison Of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in OEe form or
another. bat probably the best charcoal and
the most fo- the money is n Stuar,'s Char

Long Walk for Bulb.

A Virginia Congressman the other day
received a letter from one OF his Won
an constituents asking him 10 send her
a bulb OF a rare species OF flower. She
was evidently OF the opinion that al
he had 10 do was 10 order the bull
from the Batanic Garden.
The thing had a hard. scientific. boz
tauical. twisted-un name. and the Con
gresham did not attempt 10 remember
it-nor does he remember Il now He
wrote il down on his memorandum book
and sailed forth. he calculates now
that he walked about five miles looking
for that bulb Finally he secured il
from an old florist on the outskirts OF
town and had IL sent to his fair con

members Of that lsdys family ought tC
vote for him 20 the enl Of their days
And So they ought.

chairman, refiectively II notice that
the boys don't go so often since the
