Cosy Club Met
Friday Afternoon.

Miss Lizzie and Miss Helen Fisher
were the hostesses Of the Cosy Club
Friday afternoon.
This club is composed of fourteen
charming little girls who are probing
deep into the mysteries of literature,
and it is rather surprising to see
what a lot of knowledge each little
head contains.
Those who met at Mrs. Fishers Fri
day were: Miss Miriam Blount,
Miss Mary Winston Jones, Miss Ma
rion Baker, Miss Nettie Baker, Miss
Cordelia oublett and Miss Helen and
Lizzie Fisher.
A surprise Christmas tree had been
arranged in an adjoining room by
Mrs. Fisher, who is always SO thought
full concerning the pleasure of chill
dren, and after the papers had been
read she invited the little guests into
the room containing the Christmas
tree, which to their delighted eyes,
seemed to have sprung into life as
suddenly as If Aladdin and his won
derful lamp had been hidden away
somewhere.
There was a present for each on
the tree, and it had loads of good
things also.
The subject of the papers for this
meeting of the cosy Club" was
Anything Concerning Christmas and
the little Christmas stories read by
the children were wonderfully clever.
The following story of The Little
Hunch Backs Christmas" by Marion
Baker was adjudged the best. For a
girl of eleven years, the story
is very good indeed, and shows that
the little author has decided talent
for story writing:

customers poured in and out all day,
one of the chief attractions being Mr..
Hooton's perfume display, presided
over by the special demonstration of

SWISS AND IR1sH coArs

1t shows what can be accomplished
by organized and we'll directed investi-
cation that the British Goat Society
has made discovery of a particular
species yielding over a full gallon of
milk per diem for many months in
succession. This remarkable animal
it is Of Swiss lineage been per-
sonally and extensively tested by the
honorary secretary at farm In Els
sex, who previously disbelleved In
such yield from any species, at home
or abroad. That controversy being end
ed by his experiments, the society,
will no doubt, add to the value Of it's
previous efforts on behalf Of the rural
laborer's children by promoting inn
portations of this profitable breed,
Among its supporters there are some
men of large wealth and many acres
who have afforded repeated evidence
of their desire to give the goat a high
err position in English estimation as
an economical food producer. But the
Eunglish farm hand requires deal OF
talk before he is convinced that in
many details of human life new ways
are better than old This perverslty
Of conservatism has broken down, odd
to say, in the sister isle; the Irish
goat, Well tended and carefully bred as
it usually is, ranks far higher than the
English as a milk producer, and the
society finds little difficulty in secur-
ing the cooperation of the peasantry

his companion,

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful it is in
Preserving Health end Beauty
Costs NothIng to "a.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature but
few realize its value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
ing 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 the impurities always pres
ent in the stomach and intestines and
carries them out Of the system.
| Charcoal sweetens the breath after
| smoking, drinking or after eating on
ions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and inn
proves the complexion, it whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
1t ahsofbs the Injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; 1t
dtsinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one form
or another, but probably the best char
coal 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 lozen-
ges, the charcoal being mixed with hon
| ey.
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 possi-
BILE harm can result from their con-
tinued use but, on the contrary, great
benifit.
A Buffalo physician, in speaking of
the benefits of charcoal says: Il 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; 1 also believe the liver is greatly
benefited by the daily use of them:
they cost but twenty-five cents a box
at drug stores, and although in some
sense a patent preparation, yet l be-
| lieve L get more and better charcoal
in Stuarts Charcoal Lozenges than in
| any of the ordinary charcoal tablets Z"
