THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful II Is N Preserving
Health and Beauty.
Costs Nothing To Try.

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
ing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take OF II the better; II 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, II whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural and
eminently safe cathartic.
II absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels: II
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's Charcoal Lozenges: they
are composed OF the finest powdered
willow charcoal and other harmless
antiseptics in tablet form. or rather in
the form OF large, pleasant tasting loz-
enges, 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 COM
nlexfon, sWeeter breath and purer
blood, and the beauty OF 1T is that no
possible harm can result from their
continued use. but, on the contrary,
great benefit.
A Buffalo physician, in speaking OF
the benefits OF charcoal. says: Il ad-
wise Stuarf's Charcoal Lozenges to an
patients suffering from gas in stomach
and bowels and 10 clear the COM
plexion and purify the breath, mouth
and throat; I also believe the liver is

them; they cost but twenty-five cents

withdraw his announcement that
school children need not present vac

hundreds of children were taken from

routine. There are years IN which
to explain or befog the matter, al d
the public memory is notoriousiy |
short. Every sane man who has
noted the drift of affairs knows
that the chance of securing these
reforms at the extra session is in
finitely greater than the chance OF
securing them in the regular term
of the General Assembly.
Even granting, for sake Of argu-
|ment, that the professional poll
tician may change his nature for
the nonce, and even conceding|
that the reforms urged might find
easy sailing after the peoples OPP
pcrtunity had gone, we find the
extra session justified by the saw
ing Of revenues. Some of the off,
ces which it is hoped to abolish
| are embedded in the Constitution.
| A portion of the spoils system is
thus riveted upon as by that in
strument. To effect a change, il
will be necessary to submit consti-
tutional amendments to be ratified
by popular vote. All this requires
time. Meanwhile, the drain upon
the public pnrse continues We
must wait months for the regular
Legislative session and still other
months for the submission and
ratification OF amendments. BY
legislative enactment next month
and submission at the regular ses-
sion in April, we not only make
sure Of the reforms, but also save
tens of thousands of the taxpayers
money.
To the clear-visioned voter, the
ohstructionist's plea for delay, and
the argument that the Governor is
seeking applause, will seem quite
absurb. In the attainment of
these reforms there is glory enough
for us all, and there is DO citizen
of Louisiana too poor, or too mean,
| to share in the spoil. Here, in the
larger and juster view, is no room
for partisan feeling or individual
ACKNOWLEDGMENT. The reform it.
self is the thing. We are within
reaching distance. Shall we neg
lect the opportunity, from desire
to help the political fortunes of
one man, or 10 hurt those of an
other? The query answers itself.
The Governor can not secure
the reforms; he can only give rs
the chance to secure them, and let
us make the decision. The rest
depends upon the Legislature and
the people. If there be need for
the awhip and spur" it is the peo-
pie themselves who must use the
goads. This is not the moment
for pettiness and intrigue. Public
men who were sincere in their adj
vocacy of these reforms last week,
when they seemed far away, will
be for them, now that they are
near. It is only the hypocrite and
the demagogue who will hinder
the movement 1t is certainly
high time to separate the sheep
from the goats, that the voters may
brand each breed for what they
are. Candidates who have the
public veal at heart will join ia
the effort to strike while the iron
is hot. Forty-eight hours ego the
der and for reform was unanimous.
We shall soon see how much OF i'll
was base, aud how much was true,
