THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL
Few People Know How Useful It Is IN
Preserving Health and Beauty.
Cost Nothing To Try.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest ana most ettlcient
disinfectant 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 IL the better; It IS not
drug al all but simply absOrbs the
gases and Impurities always present
in the stomach and intestines and car
Ties them out Of the system.
Charcoal sWeetens the breath after
smoking, drinking. or after eating on
ions and other OdOrous veP' -abies.
Charcoal effectually cles 20 ab1 i'm
proves the complexion, IL ..nitens the
teeth and further acts as natural and
eminently safe cathartic.
II abs9rbs 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 tie 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 mixeG with
honey.
The daily use of these lozenges viii
soon tell in a much improved condi
ton OF the general health, better COM
piexiou. sweeter breath and purer blood,
and the beauty of it is that no posi-
BILE harm can result from their con-
tinued use, but. on the contrary, great
benefit.
A Buffalo physician, in Speaking Of
the benefits OF charcoal, says; Il ad-
wise Stuarts Charcoal LOzenges to all
patients suffering from gas IN stomach
and bowels, and to clear the complexion
and purify the breath. mouth. and
throat; 1 also believe the liver Is great

The crews lined the rails, the marines
formed forward, officers in full uniform
thronged the bridges, an6 the bands
played as the ships swept lhrough the
harbor.
Selutes Of twenty-one guns were ex-
changed as the craft passed, first with
the harbor forts, and later with the
training-ship General BaQuedano, from
which the President reviewed the pa
rade.

A Novel Idea.

II is free and deeply interests everybody
who has aches or pains, or who Is weak
and sckly. Anyone can learn the surest
and quickest means to get strong and
well by accepting that splendid free Of
fer of the great specialist in curing ner-
vous and chronic diseases. DIR. Greene,
OF "a Temple Place, Boston, Mass. He has
established a system of letter correspond
ence through which all sick and suffering
people can learn exactly what ails them,
and how to get well, without expense and
without leaving their homes. All they
have to do is write to the Doctor, stating
each symptom from which they. are SUI
fering and he will answer their letter, ex-
planning their case thoroughly, telling Just
what the trouble is and what TO do to be
cured. He gives the greatest care and at
tenton to every letter, and tells the
cause of each symptom so plainly that pa
tients understand instantly just what ails
them. And all this costs nothing. 1t IS
a splendid opportunity for those who can.
not afford the time or expense 10 60 to the
city. DIR. Greene makes a speciality OF cur
ing patients through letter correspond
ence. He is the most successful specialist
in curing nervous and chronic diseases;
and is the discoverer of that wonderful
medicine, DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and
nerve remedy. Those who write to HIM
get cured.
