On Your Stomach
Wonderful Absorbing Power of Char.
coal When Taken in the Form of
Stuart's' Charcoal Lozenges.
TRIAL Package Sent Free.


Charcoal, pure, simple charcoal,
absorbs 100 times its own volume OF
gas. Where does the gas go to? It
is just absorbed by the charcoal-the
gas disappears and there is left
pure, fresh, sweet atmosphere, free
from all impurities and germs.
That's what happens in your stom-
ach when you take one or two Of
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges, the most
powerful purifiers science has yet
discovered.
You belch gas in company, some
times, by accident, greatly to your
own humiliation. That is because
there is a great amount OF gas being
formed in your stomach by ferment-
ing food. Your stomach is not d.
gesting your food properly. Gas is
inevitable. Whenever this happens,
just take one or two OF Stuart's Char
coal Lozenges right after eating, and
you will be surprised how quickly
they will act. No more belchings;
lno more sour risings. Eat all you
want and what you want, and then
If there is any gas going to be form
ed, one of these wonderful little alb
sorbers, a Stuart Charcoal Lozenge,
will take care of all the gas.
And IL will do more than that.
Every particle of impurity in your
stomach and intestines is going to be
carried away by the charcoal. No
one seems to know why IL does this,
but Il does, and does 1t wonderfully
You notice the difference In your ap-
petite, general good feeling, and in
the purity of your blood, right
away.
You'll have no more bad taste In
you mouth or breath, either from
drinking, eating or smoking. other
people will notice your bad breath
quicker than you will yourself. Make
your breath pure, fresh and sweet,
so when you talk to others you won't
disgust them. Just one or two
Stuart Charcoal Lozenges will make
your breath sweet, and make You feel
better all over for Il. You can eat
all the onions and ordorous foods you
want, and no one can tell the differ
ence.
Besides, charcoal is the best laxa-
tive known. You can take whole
boxful and no harm will result. II
Is a wonderfully easy regulator.
And then. too. It filters your blood
every particle of poison or impur'
fly In your blood is destroyed, and
you begin TO notice the difference In
your face first thing-your clear COM
plexion.

Washing Eggs Injuries Them.

Several dealers have spoken to me
lately Of unusual trouble with washed
eggs mixed in with current packings..
These washed eggs do not keep at all
when the weather is even moderately
warm, and it Is q serious mistake to
put them in when shipped for any dis
lance to be held. says the New York
Produce Review. When shippers have
local consumptive outlets which use the
eggs up at once 1t is all right to wash
dirties, for such trade, but they are
absolutely no good for distant ship
ment, and a packer will soon ruin the
reputation of his brand by packing
them with clean unwashed eggs
1t ought to be we'll known that wash
ing eggs removes the mucus which
closes up the pores of the shells, and
the air then has ready access to the
contents, fastening decay.

Week Cuticura Drove Sores Away.
Our little girl, one year and half
old, was taken with eczema or that
was what the doctor called it We
called in the family doctor, and he gave
some tablets and said she would be all
right in a few days The eczema grew
worse and we called in doctor No. 2
He said she was teethng, as soon as
the teeth were through she would be
all right But she still grew worse.
Doctor No. said it was eczema. By
this time she was nothing but yellow,
greenish sore Well, he said he could
help her, so we let him try 1t about
a week. One morning we discovered
a little yellow pimple on one of her
eyes. OF course we 'phoned for doctor
No. s. He came over and looked ner
over, and said that he could not do
anything more for her, that we had
better take her to some eye specialist
since it was an ulcer. So we went to
Oswego to doctor No. 4, and be said
the eyesight was gone, but that he
could help it. We thought we would
try doctor No. 5. Well that proved the
same, only he charged $40 more than
doctor No. f. We were nearly dis
couraged. l saw one Of the Cuticura
advertisements in the paper and
thought we would try the Cuticura
Treatment, so | went and purchased
q SET of Cuticura Remedies which cost
me 81, and in three days our daughter,
who had been sick about eight months,
showed great improvement, and In one
week all sores had disappeared. OF
course it could not restore the eye
sight, but if we had used Cuticura in
time | am confident that it would have
saved the eye. We think there is 10
remedy so good for any skin trouble or
impurity of the blood as Cuticura. Mr..

All soils are formed from disinte-

the latter soils contain from one to
more than 20 per cent 1t is only in
boys or beds Of peat that the amount

wheat lands contain only from i to 6

Best Fertilizers for Frptt,

In very many cases potash fertilizers
have decidedly improved the qualities
of fruits. In nearly all cases when
ever the percentage of this element has
been raised, the change has been accom-
panied by an increase of sugar and a
decrease of acid. Other things being
equal, the fruit with the largest per-
cantage of sugar will bring the highest
price. In addition, less desirable varie-
ties may be brought up to a higher
standard, thus giving value to some
good quality, as hardness and prolific

\ quarter inch steel ball rolling on two
inclined plates takes the place of pendu-

over the two inclined plates in Just a
minute and rolls off the lower plate into
the lower hole of the disk. at the same
time releasing the disk, which is always
under tension impaired to it by two ball
weights suspended in towers.
The disk carries thirty balls on one
side, and when released by the rolling of
the ball from the lower plates against a
locking device, the disk turns the space
of one hole. or one minute. and brings
the uppermost ball into position to roll
on the top plate and begin Its zigzag
course down the two inclined plates as
did the preceding ball. Each ball rolls

is the same difference for a COW be-
tween Il hot breakfast and cold one
that there is for a workingman. Hay

Corn and Cob Meal.

A combination Of corn and cob meal
is almost equal to cornmeal for cattle.
1t is not so satisfactory for sheep or
hogs. Where corn can be had on the
ear it is more profitable to grind the
cob with the grain than to shell and
grind the grain alone. The prices
quoted by some dealers for corn-neal
and for corn and cobmeal would indi-
cate that some mills are adding extra
cobs before grinding the corn and cob
meal. Properly speaking, corn and
cob meal should be the whole ears
ground without the addition of any
other material.

Drained Bottom Lands in Him OILS.
During the last twenty-five Years the
cultivation of large tracts of the richest
prairie lands in Illinois has been made
possible by the construction of large
open bitches and by tile drainage. For
example, in one county in the Illinois
Valley bottoms 10000 to 100000 acres
of rich alluvial lands have been re-
claimed by this method and rendered
fertile by the subsequent application
of potassium in which the soil was de
ficient. The same is true of a large
area in the northwestern part of the
State, where a party soil has been rem
dered more fertile by the application
of potassium.
