THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful 1t Is in
 Preserving Health and Beauty.
Cost Nothing to Try.

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 cleans ing purpose
 Charcoal Is a remedy that the more you take of 1t the better; 1t is not a 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 on- ions and other odorous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually clears and im- proves the complexion, 1t whitens the teeth and further acts as natural and eminently safe cathartic.
 It absorbs 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 the 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 ofIlarge pleasant tasting log enges, the charcoal being mixed witt honey.
 The daily use of these lozenges will soon tell in a much improved condi ton of the general health, better com- l plexion, sweeter breath and pure' blood. and the beauty of it is, that nc possible harm can result from thei continued use, but, on the contrary i great benefit.
 A Buffalo physician. in speaking o the benefits of charcoal. says: "I ad wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in stomacl and bowels, and to clear the complex ion and purify the breath, mouth ant throat; also believe the liver is great ly benefited by the daily use Of them they cost but twenty-five cents a bo, at drug stores. and although in some sense a patent preparation, yet I be lieve 1 get more and better charcoa in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges than il any of the ordinary charcoal tablets
