 The causes for the extermination of the buffalo might be summed up as follows, Man! reckless greed, his wanton extravagance, destructiveness and improvidence in not husbanding the resources that come to him by the hand of nature ready made.

CENTRAL SENIORS CAN'T
APPEAR IN A IHEATER

By order of Superintendent G. M.
Jordan, the class day exercise of the
senior class of Central high school will
this year be held in the senior room
of Central high and not in downtown
theater as in 1905. AS a result there
is dissatisfaction in the senior class
and embassy after embassy has been
dispatched to DR.. Jordan in futile eff
forts to get him to rescind his order.
With the exception of last year the
ceremonies attending class day includ-
ing the class history, usually in the
form of a burlesque, have been held in
the high school building, but lack of a
suitable assembly hall led last years.

theater for the presentation of the an
nual iollities. This year the senior
class planned to follow the lead of it's
predecessor and negotiations were
opened with ss~ management of a
downtown, theater. When DR.. Jordan

told them that under no conditions
would the seniors be allowed to pre-
sent the class day exercises in any
place but the high school building. For
a time strike was threatened, but the
superintendent remained firm, and the
exercices will be given in the school
building.
In explanation of his refusal to al
low the seniors to appear in a theater,
DR.. Jordan says that class day cere-
monies should be made subsidiary to
the good of the high school, and that
holding the, exercises away from the
school building tends to detract from

ion he is supported by Principal j. n.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It Is in
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient DIS.
infectant and purifier in nature, but
few realize its value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take Of it the better; it is not
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 sweetens the 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 natural and
eminently safe cathartic.
It absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; it
disinfects 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 Is Charcoal Lozenges; they are
composed Of the finest powdered Will
septics in tablet form or rather i'm 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 complex
ion, sweeter breath and purer blood,
and the beauty Of it is, that no posi-
BILE harm cam result from their con-
tinued use, but on the contrary, great
benefit.
A. Buffalo physician in speaking Of
the benefits of charcoal says: I adj
wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all
patients suffering from gas in stomach
and bowels, and to clear the complexion
and purify the breath, mouth and
throat; / also believe the liver is great
~ benefited by the daily use Of them;
they cost but twenty-five cents box at
drug stores, and although in some sense
patent preparation, yet / believe I
get more and better charcoal in Stu
the ordinary charcoal tablets"
