THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful it is in
Preserving Health and Beauty.
Costs Nothing to Try.

Nearly eve ybody knows that charcoal
is the safest and most efficient disinfec-
tant and purifier in nature, but few real
lie 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 it is not a 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 a natural and
eminently safe cathartlc.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; it dis
infects 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 Willow charcoal

benefits of charcoal, says 81 advise
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all pa
