The Value of Charcoal
Few People Know How Useful II Is in
Preserving Health and Beauty
Costs Nothing to Try

Nearly everybody know: that char
coal is. the safest and t efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature. but
few realize it's value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
ing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the moro
you take of it the better; it is not
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, it Whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural and
eminently safe cathar.ic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels 1t
disinfects 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
Stuarts Charcoal LoZenges; thy re
composed of the finest powdered Willow
charcoal and other harmless antiseptics
In tablet form, or rather In the form of
large, pleasant tasting lozenges, the
charcoal being mixed with honey.
The daily use of these lozenges will
soon tell in much improved condition
of the general health, better complex
ion 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: II advise
Stuart's Charcoal Lozens ses to all pa
tents suffering from gas in stomach
and bowels. and to clear the complex
ion and purify the breath, mouth and
throat; also believe the liver is greatly
benefited by the daily use of them; they
cost but Zoe a box at drug stores, and
although In some sense a patent prep
aration, yet believe l get more and
better charcoal in Stuart's Charcoal
Lozenges than in any OF the ordinary
charcoal tablets"

musical comedies. made it rule that
his musical companies, which he alter
mated with dramatic companies at his
New York theater, should have just
as good an environment as that which
surrounded the dramatic companies
that bore his name. Other first class
managers have taken care that their
people shall have working conditions
as favorable as possible, and steadily
the rate of payment has gone up.
But the managers simply cannot get
the girls. There is a famine, and
genuine one, in the supply.

Special 10 The Herald.
NEW YORK, Jan. 26.-Although
chorus girls now are treated better
than they ever were before, although
they get more money and have more
chances of advancement, and although
more of them marry we'll than used to,
there is a famine in the article. MuSi-
cal shows all over the country are a
few girls short. Managers are adver-
tising more heavily than ever for girls
and are getting few responses.
Every capable chorus girl in the
country either has job or can get one
for the asking. Chorus girls have be-
gun to change managements just like
actresses who play parts and speak
lines. They have insisted upon more
money and some of them have signed
long time contracts.
Stars like Marie Cahill have made it
possible for the most carefully reared
girls to enter the chorus and to work
there without meeting with disagree
able experiences. Marie Cahill has
such powerful backing as that fur
nished by George NJ. Cohan in her de-
sire to do away with choruses that wear
tights or short dresses. The tendency
in dressing the chorus is to give 1t
more clothes. With the exception of
the Anna Held show there is no at
traction playing in the first-class the
aters in this country today which
makes its principal appeal through the
paucity of garmentry bestowed upon the
chorus. A few years ago, in the days
when the New York Casino was at the
height of its prosperity, conditions were
entirely different. Even at such late
day as that in which Edna May went
into the chorus conditions were such as
to discourage the girl of gentle instincts
and careful home training.
Gets a Higher Salary
But now, when the chorus girl gets a
higher salary when she Is treated with
more consideration by her manager and
with less left-handed courtesy by the
public, when out of the ranks couple
of prominent actresses rise every few
weeks, when the theatrical armament
has many stars who once were chorus
girls, the wheel has turned so queerly
that the managers find 1t extremely
difficult to get girls at ALL
Many of those that they do get in
New York when the show Is In re-
hearsal refuse to leave New York.
They appreciate the advantages of long
metropolitan engagements and they es-
tablish homes in New York that have
more StaDllty ABOUT tnem than any
nakeshift homes that they can get on
the road. In refusing to leave New
York they pattern after Adele Richie
and a few other New York favorites
who viii, upon managerial compulsion,
play in Philadelphia or Boston, but who
regard cities farther removed from
Broadway and Forty-second street than
those as impossible. It's funny, but
some of those stars that have such a
deep seated affection for little old New
York were born and spent their early

will open up new revenue in more
ways than one. To think how, in af-
ter years. mother can look back and
see how her grown son or daughter
moved and acted when a baby, how
the baby smile came over it's face, and
now she can see 1t again by running
her fingers over the leaves.
1.-The street photographer, the penny
arcade man must get them, as it will
be entirely new--nothing like 1t. Pic
lures by the yard, pictures on postals,
pictures on tintype, one at a time, or
in motion form, no two alike.
ITO the sheriff or chief of police 1t
will give a new instrument to take
the pose of the criminal In all of his
various expressions. The criminal
will be the only one who will desplse
1t.
TO the amateur 1t will give an at
tachment for his kodak with which
he can take moving pictures or stamps,
no matter how small the kodak. Thus,
II he is the head of a family he can
keep record OF the little ones as they
grow, and which will bring in after
years to him and his many a smile
to see how they acted in their younger
days"

Street Railway Strike.

Louisville. KY, March-The street
railway system of this city was COM
pletely tied up Sunday by strike of
the railway employees. Only ears for
carrying mail were operated The
company officials claim that they will
be able to operate all Their lines in
few days. The union leaders as
sert that the street railway will be
closed down until they are seen.
The demands on which the strike
is based are: A ten-hour day with %
cents an hour pay; forty-fye minutes
for meals; pay for evtra work to be-
gin when report for duty is made;
time and a half for overtime; subse-
quent employees to be allowed to join
the union: board of arbitration A
mass melting called by the Louisville
Federation of Labor was held at which
all the unions affiliated with that body
pledged their moral and financial sup
port, and arrangements for strike
fund to be contributed to by all I'M
ions in Louisville were made Speeches
were made eXhorting strict obedience
to the law, and the leaders of the
strike pledged rigid abstinence from
any form of violence and coercion.
The inconvenience to the general pub
lie was not generally apparent In
fact the crowds in the business sec
tions and the attendance at churches
and Sunday theaters seemed if any
thing greater than usual. All sorts of
vehicles, from delivery wagons to au-
tomobiles, were carrying passengers
at fares ranging from 10 to % cents.
