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

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
dislnfectant 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; 1t is not =
drug at all. but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always presen'
In the stomach and intestines and car
ries 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. II whitens thu
teeth and further acts as a natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
II absoIibs the injurious gases which
collect I'm the stomach and bowels; It
disinfccts the mouth and throat from
the poison OF cataIrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another, but probably the best
charcoal and the most for the money
Is IN Stuarts Charcoal Lozenges; they
are composed CT the finest powdered
Willow charcoal. and other harmless
antiscptics in tablet form or rather
m the form OF large pleasant tastins
lozenges. the charcoal being mixed
with honey.
The daily use Of these lozenges will
soon tel in a much improved condi-
tion of the general health. better COM
plexion. sweeter breath and puTeI
blood and the beauty Of It is that no
possible harm can result from their
continued use, but, on the contrary
great benefit.
Buffalo physician. in speaking oi
the benefits OF charcoal says: Il ed
