In reviewing the legislation OF the last
Congress affecting the District OF Co
iumbia. Commissioner Macfarland to-
day expressed himself as pleased at the
general results Notwithstanding the
Commissioners did not obtain every
thing recommended by them.
I'VE have obtained excellent results"
said Mr. Macfarlaud. although the
House hnbuste- prevented some legIs-
Iation that was desirable Other meas
ures are 50 advanced that We can hope
10 get much more at the next session.
The appropriation bills, the child
labor bill, and tho bill extending the
street railways To the Union Station and
providing for governments al supervision
Of street railways. and a cross-town
line in tie northeast are notable eX-
amples Of valuable legislation. The child
labor bill was the last important meas
ure on the Commissioners list OF So
CiaI legislation. and which the bill as
passed did net so rs far as The Com
missioneTs' draft, and no appropriation
for salaries of inspectors was provided,
it takes the District OF the black list OF
the very few jurisdictions having no
child labor law.
Inc 4laChdsC btAAs
The principe of public supervision Of
public utility corporations so strongly
urged by the Commissioners is recog-
uized i'm the Union Station trackage bill
and while il has been put In the hands
of the Interstate Commerce Commission,
/ believe that eventually TIA supervision
viii be put in the municipality where IL
belongs. since the operations Of the
street railways are almost wholly In the
District. and VIII be extended To all the
other public utility corporations.
Other important general legislator
includes the abolition of race track and
other gambling throughout the District
of Columbia. provision for the registra-
tiOu OF tuberculosis cases. and the free
examination of sputum in suspected
cases, provision for the regulation OF
private hospitals.
The appropriations are as large as
could be expected. IN view Of the iusis-
tence OF the Appropriations Committees
ia cutting down all estimates this year
and The failure To treat the District ap-
prOpriatiou bin. half OF which is paid
by the District taxpayers, differently
from the general appropriation bills.
and. above all, In view of the failure
20 adopt the businesslike permanent sep
arate financing OF the Districts share
of the extraordinary improvement ap-
propriauon.

VALUE OF CHARCOAL
Few PeopleKnow How Useful 1t is
in Preserving Health and Beauty.

! Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature,
but few realize its value when taken
into the human system for the same
cleansing purpose.
Charcoal is Il remedy that the more
.ou take Of it the better; 1t is not a
drug ut all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present
In the stomach and intestines and
carries them our OF Che system,
Charcoal sweetens the breath af-
ter smoking. drinking or after eating
onions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and inn
proves the complexion, 1t whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural
and eminentiy safe cathartlc.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach ana bowels,
1t disinfects the mouth and throat
rom the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another, but probably the
host charcoal and the most for the
llnoney Is in Stuarts Charcoal LOZ-
lenges; they are composed of the fin
lest powdered Willow charcoal and
iother harmless antlseptics in tablet
form or rather in the foym of large
pheasant tasting lo2enges the charcoal
being mixed with honey.
The daily use Of these lozenges
will soon tell In q much improved
condition OF the general health, bet
ter complexion, sweetor breath and
purer blood and tho heauty of It IS
THAT no possible harm can result
from their continual use, but on the
contrary, great benefit.
A Buffalo phys'cian, in speaking of
1.-THE benefits OF charcoal, says: 81
advise Stuart's Charcoal I.o2enges to
lall patient suffering from gas in
lstomaoh and bowels. and to clear
the complexion and purify the breath
mouth and throat: L also believe the
! liver is greatly benefited by the daily
Iuse of them; they cost but twenty
five cents box at drug stores and
lalthough In some sense a patent prep
laration. YET I believe get more
and bette rcharcoal in Stuari's Char
coal Lozenges than in any Of the or
ldinary charcoal tablets"

Schemes of this class have again
come to grief along with the gullible
Investors, causing serious loss to
nNocent business concerns, as is
always the case of panics in Wall St.
While this last lesson is yet fresh
in mind, it is an opportune moment
10 consider causes and means to
avoid like trouble in the future.
Direct your attention to that
greatest of all Newspapers the Gin
cinnati Enquirer. From its columns
one can readily detect the trend OF
currency, its lodging places, by
whom handled, uses made of it, aud
final results.
Again you read quotations of
Bonds, Stocks, and Securities of
every nature, fixing Status of all
business from the retailer, to United
States Government.
Also Current News, facts and re-
liable data covering the entire world;
all sufficiently explicit to enable
thinking people to avoid snags and
follow the channel of success.
It's extra size and high price, is
the secret of its ability to discover,
obtain, print and serve its patrons
with all the news, and cater to wants
of people in every calling of life.
The Weekly Enquirer for the
year 1908 has greatly increased its
Clubbing offers which now include
the most select and popular pub
lications of the day at prices slightly
over half the regular Subscription
rates.
Do not overlook the fact that the
year 1908 promises to excel i'll pros
perity any of the past, and that
the Enquirer printed at Cincinnati,
Ohio, is one of the most reliable
sources of information.
