Stomach Gases

Give Way Before the Peculiar Purify ing Power of Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges.
A Trial Package Sent Free.

The foul gases of the stomach and the torpid action of the liver are easy victims for charcoal to overcome. This great natural cleaner and absorb ent will most certainly be relished by a system afflicted with gaseous or sluggish tendencies.
 Charcoal has long been known as a great absorbent of gas. A painful of char coal will positively purify room filled with foul odors and decay. It's absorbing ratio is one hundred times greater than it's own volume.
 The ancients gave charcoal for many human ills successfully. The North Amer ioan Indians used it for snake bite, poison from eating wild herbs, and cured what they called stomach bad medicine" with it.
 Willow charcoal seems to be the best product for human use, and no doubt the peculiar curative property of the will low is represented in a chemical quality in its charcoal
 Stuarts Charcoal Lozenges are pure willow and sweet honey blended by tre- mendous power and compression into a every palatable lozenge. Two or three lozenses eaten after meals will prevent the process of digestion from producing noxious gases. They will vivify a lazy liver and aid every organ which is most likely to be overcome through its contact with impurities. rt
 They cleanse the stomach and intes- tines. bring purity and sweetness out of fermentation and decay and aid diges- ton by allaying gas. They will aid you and your stomach. The beneficial effects are made evident after each meal when YOU use charcoal as Stuart prepares it.

By HOMER GEORGE.


 When Lewis Strang and Emile 'Striel<ler, two of the worlds greatest drivers of the modern juggernauts. begin their race against old Father Time at the Fair grounds Monday night the people of this city will have an opportunity to witness a sport which has taken New York and the other large cities of the country by storm. No longer are the patrons of mod ern sports satisfied with a struggle not sustained until the nerves of of the ath- letes are at breaking strain. In 24-hour automobile racing has been found a di- version which supplies a thrill every sec ond and causes good, red blood to come to the surface of the spectator.
 Never will I forget the sensations that gave me hundreds of spine chills while witnessing my first 24-hour automobile contest In Detroit two years ago l went to the track to study the game before risking the introduction of the hazardous sport into New York and the other large cities of the country. 1t was night of inky blackness and track lighting, now considered near perfection, was in crude state. Fifteen daring drivers recruited from the ranks of the greatest pilots of both continents were in the contest rac- ing around the treacherous turns of the murderous dirt track, the machfnes throw up huge ctOu0S or aust dllu DeiclllllB out sheets of blue flame accompanied by a thunderous roar from the exhaust ports of the giant engines, all combined to create a feeling of reverence for their al- most superhuman nerve.
 Around, around, around they sped shak- ing dice with death and skirting the valley of eternity twice during each mile, and as each passed me I involuntarily lifted my voice to the infinite God in a silent prayer that might not witness the death of one of these foolhardy, steel nerved. human beings.
 And then suddenly just in front of my eyes young driver named Gardham shot his big racer through the fence splinter ing the oaks and tearing a great hole in the ground as it smashed through the ditches on the inside of the course. At the time he was driving down the straightaway and was directly in front of the grandstand A crowd of us rushed forward and picked him up. An exam ination disclosed that he was temporarily blind,
 While we were moving him to a tent he sent shvers through my body by fool ish and incoherent mutterings as though suffering from a treacherous brain fever. His face was covered with grease and dirt thrown up by the mercless whirring wheels and his eyes, inflamed and swo- len by terrific strain of ten hours unceas- ing driving, looked to be huge marbles set in between rows of testers.
 Harly had I recovered my usual com sidered the king of American drivers,

Vandy Is Crushed.

Nashville, November 14.-Ohio State University defeated Vanderbilt r to 6 this afternoon The visitors were heavier than Vanderbilt were speedy and for the most part the aggressors. They bat- tered down Nanderbilt's defense and three times crossed the goal line. Vander- bilt made one touchdown. When on the defense Ohio met Vanderbilt's every charge. They broke up what has here- tofore been splendid interference and stopped play after play. The locals simply could not gain, it seemed. Off, fensiveiy Ohio was strong. They ripped big holes in Vanderbnts line and now and then would go around the ends for steady gains. It was a tie at the end of the first half, ana 6. The touch- down that gave Ohio the lead came in the second half after 20 minutes of play on a blocked punt followed by the long est run of the game, Captain Harrington cireling an end for 10 yards.

decided advantage over his two opponents, but owing to fumbles by Alabama. and magnificent returns of Woodruff of Geor- gia, neither team gained a great advan- tage.
 Near the conclusion of the game Geor 'gia made repeated gains for short dis tances around Alabama's ends and over the line. When the whistle blew, the ball in Georgia's possession was on Ala bama's 15-yard line.
 Woodruff a Great Star.
 There was but one point over which the teams differed during the afternoon. Alabama contended that Georgia did not carry the ball over the line when Referee Metallic ruled a touchdown. When the players, after the moment of scrimmage, were'raised from the sphere it was a few inches short of the line. Referee Me Callie, however, declared that when he blew the whistle Georgia had the ball over the Alabama line by three inches.
 There was one unfortunate occurrence. In the very beginning of the game Jack Reidy of Alabama either fractured or bent a rib He gamely remained in harness, however, though he suffered con- siderable pain last night.
 Georgia furnished the star. Woodruff, quarterback, is as splendid a general as has been seen in Birmingham in many days. He is exceedingly fast and runs with the ball, either in scrImmage or on a broken field, in masterly fashion.
 For Alabama, on the offensive, Reidy and Pratt shared the honors about evenly. On the defensive, Captain Burks and Center Countess were magnificent. Often they broke through Georgias line, tack ling the runner from the rear. Time and time again the whole defense piled Georgia to the heavens.

GREEN MOUNTAIN rUBRRs.

the original, with all the weaker points
bred out The following from Amert-
can Agriculturist gives further details
OF this splendid potato:
One of the potatoes exhibited at the
Ohio state fair last fall which attract
ed our attention was an improved
strain of Green Mountain. Speaking Of
this variety, the producer says: Sew
eral years ago we procured small
amount of seed from a well known
farm of the original Green Mountain
potato. noted the very desirable and
strong features this potato possessed.
On the other hand. among the undestr-
able qualities was lack of uniformity
and SmOothness in the tubers. The
eyes were too deep and the yield usual
" not in keeping with the vigor and
spread of the vine.
BY careful selection Of certain hills
and tubers showing the least fault in
these respects | eventually secured a
potato that practically eliminated all
the faults By growing these several
years under most favorable cultural
conditions on a light loan soil album
dainty supplied with humus and chem
icals | finally secured what | consider
a strain of Green Mountain that is far
superior to the original. planted only
perfect specimens and as result have
secured a potato possessing all the
strong points of the original and lack
ing the undesira bic ones.
The potato Is cream white, with a
slightly netted skin, rather oblong and
somewhat flattened as well as uniform
in size. 1t sets moderately well, and a
large per cent of the tubers Of the po-
tatOes develop to marketable size.
Only 4 per cent Of the total yield has
been considered culls on my farm dur
ing the past six years. Tubers are
rarely If ever hollow and are superb
for table use. 1t is yielder OF excep'
tiOnal merit, and it is popular wher-
ever it has been grown.
