serve, the latter amounting to nearly
one-half that recorded in the previous
week. The cash loss last week was
1921, 100 1t would seem that this loss
was partly due to the bringing over
from the week ending February 3 of that
portion of the decrease in cash which
was not reflected in that weeks state
ment. It was also in great part caused
by operations Of the subtreasury which
absorbed from the banks considerable
sums for the five per cent redemption
fund and likewise for excess internal
revenue receipts that were transferred
hither by interior repositories and paid
into subtreasury out of the renting
institutions deposits with correspondents.
The general deposits of the associated
banks decreased S452. 200 and the state
ment showed a good balance, the sum
of the cash decrease, less the gain of
81, $50, 100 in loans being only $212. 800
greater than the reduction in deposits.
The required reserve was decreased S113,-
050 deduoting which from the loss of
cash left, 5.1s4O50 as the reduction in
surplus reserve to s., 943 575. against Sill
127625 I'm the previous week. Computed
upon the basis of deposits, less those
of SS57S, 100 public funds the surplus is
IS. 0S6. $50 The increase of $4.637, 100 in
loans above noted was quite mod
crate and the smaller gain compared with
previous weeks was most likely due to
liquidation Of speculative accounts on
the stock exchange which to a great
extent contributed to offset expansions
through other operations.

What Weakness" Is and
How We Cure It.

So-called Weakness" in men
Is merely a symptom Of chronic
Inflammation in the prostate
gland. brought on by early dis
sipation or by the improper
treatment OF some contracted
disease. A complete and radical
cure is, therefore. a question OF
restoring the prostate gland to
the normal state, and this we
accomplish promptly and com
pleteiy without the use Of In
ternal remedies. Our treatment
is local one entirely. It is
original and scientific, and has
been proven absolutely efrective
by thousands OF tests. We are
convinced that by no other
methods can full and permanent
restoration OF strength and Wig

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful 1t 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 It's 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; it 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 after eating onions or other odorous vegetables
 Charcoal effectually clears and i'm proves the complexion. 1t whttens 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 distnfects 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 Will low charcoal and other harmless anti septics in tablet form or rather in the form of large, pleasant tasting log enges the charcoal being mixed with
 The daily use of these lOzenges will soon tell in q much improved condition of the general health, better complex ion, sweeter breath and purer blood. and the beauty of it is. that no possible harm can result frore their contin ued use. but on the contrary, great benefit.
 A Buffalo physician In speaking Of the benefits of charcoal says; T ad- wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in stomach and bowels. and to clear the complex ion and purify the breath, mouth and throat: I also believe the liver is great ly benefited by the daily use of them; they cost out twenty-five cents a box at drug stores and although in some sense a patent preparation, yet I believe l get more and better charcoal in Stu arts Charcoal Lozenges than in any of the ordinary charcoal tablets

Perhaps the largest attendance in twelve months was at the meeting last night. in Pythian Castle, of Mobile Lodge, No. ST, Knights of Pythias. The occasion was the installation of ofi~ cers for the ensuing term. The in- stal1ing officer was J. D Bloch acting Grand Chancellor; assisted by J. P. Wilkins, Grand Vice Chancellor; R. c. Lockett, Grand Prelate; Adolph D. Bloch, Grand Master of Finance; B. Dare (of Chicago), Grand Master of Exchequer: Henry L. Laffe. Grand Master of Work; E. S. Head, Grand Inner Guard; Nathan Simon. Grand Out CT Guard.
 The officers who were inducted into office were: c. l.. Hutchisson, Past Chancellor; Robert F. Gordon. Chancei- Tor Commander; Alexis Meyer, Vice Chancellor; Lennox D. Browne, Prelate; J. W. Mayer. Master of Work; Herman W. Leinkauf, Master of Exchequer; Henry Simon, Keeper of Records and Seals and Master of Finance: A. Lee Smith, Mastcr-at- Arms; Sextus H. Smith, Inner Guard; T. H. Rousseau. Outer Guard; Kos Mayer, Adoiph D. Bloch. Ed Harris. trustees; Nathan Si- mon, representative to Grand Lodge.
 One of the features of the evening was when the acting grand chancellor called attention to the illness of Colonel E. L. Russell vice-president of the Mo- bile and Ohio Railroad Company, who is an honored member of the lodge. It was the sense of the entire membership that the keeper of records and seals forward a telegram of coincidence to Colonel Russell at St. Louis, expressing sincere regret and hoping for his speedy recovery. During the evening many speeches were made and compli- ments paid the officers of the past year. Mobile Lodge is very prosperous and anticipates an increased membership during the present year.
