Henry Clews believes the United
States could preserve the peace OF
the world by giving the Philippines
to England in exchange for certain
possessions OF Great Britain in South
America. He believes that Russia
and Germany are disposed to cncour-
age war between Japan and the
United states and that in time Japan,
China and India, containing about
two-thlrds OF The worlds population
Will combine and force the civilized
nations into an alliance offensive and
defensive. II isn't at all certain
however, that England would care
for the Philippines Admiral Dewey

The forthcoming report OF Frank
p. Sargent, commissioner general of
immigration, will show that for the
year ending last June shout. 1,4OO,-
OOO immigrants entered the United
States being about 100000 more
than the preceding year This makes
a total OF moro than 100000 new
comers since 1900, making an UNI
prccedontod addition to our popula-
ton for any similar period OF time.
Naturally this influx has given rise
to serious problems in some sections,
but Commissioner Sargent takes
pains TO assure the country that the
class Of Immigrants now coming Is
for the most part very desirable. and
he insists that all must not be Judged
by the acts OF few criminals or
dlsrepulables. Another encouraging
feature OF the report is that the inn
migrants are not congcsting In New
York as In the past, but are distrib-
uting themselves whore employment

The newspapers are telling a good
story involving Bishop Talbot of the
Episcopal church, long known as the

he was attending meeting Of dig

porch at noon and asked for aid:

But down there Is the youngest
bishop OF us al (polntlng to Bishop
Talbot and hos a very generous
man" The tramp went to Bishop
Talbot and the others watched with
interest. They saw a look of surprise
come over the tramp's face-thcy
saw that the bishop was talking Gag
crly, earnestly they saw tho tramp
look pcrturbed--b they finally saw
something passed from hand to hand.
The tramp tried to get away without
speaking to those OF the group, but
the former spokesman called to him.

our young brothcr?" The tramp
grlnned sheeplshly "No, gave him

-TloN COMPANY sUsPENDs
OPERATIONS

From Thursdays Daily.
The Ottumwa Brick & Construction
company has shut down its plant for
an indefinite period. BY this action be-
tween seventy-five and 100 men were
suddenly thrown out of employment
this morning. Officers of the concern
state that there is good steady de-
mand for the products of their factory,
but on account of the sudden raising
of their switching rates, they have
been compelled to suspend operations
for time
D. F. Morey, secretary and treas.
urer IF The company explained the
situation as follows: For eight years
we have been making and shipping
brick. During that time we have been
paying switch rate of So for 80 ton
car, accold ding to plans agreed upon
between the Milwaukee road and our
company. Now we are suddenly
charged the regular Iowa distance
freight rate for the switching service.
1t means that instead of paying So for
having 80 ton car moved. we must
pay exactly s16.s0. The company can
not stand these exorbitant charges.
The plant will lay idle until some ad.
iustment of this matter can be made.
In the meanwhile between rs and 100
people are out of employment"

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL
Few People Know How Useful 1t Is ir
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, put
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 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 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 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'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 complex
ion, sweeter breath and purer blood,
and the beauty of it is, that no possible
harm can result from their continued
use, but. on the contrary, great bene-
fit.

the benefits of charcoal, says II adj
