while Senator Bucks bill to accept the
Carnegie foundation was up for consider
alton. The senate refused TO postpone the
bill and gave a direct slap at Mr.. Bryan,
who opposed the measure, by recommending
the bill for general file by a vote OF rs to 8
Senator Buck started the discussion by
insisting his bill was a good measure and
that the people of the state might do far
worse than to accept the generosity of
the iron magnate.
senator Donohoe OF Holt county in an
emphatic disclaimer of any desire to be
under obligation to the possessor of money
gained in this manner, asked the members
of the senate to follow the request of their
leader and oppose the measure.
This was followed by Senator Tibbets,
who in a stirring speech denied that he had
any dictator. He HAD admiration for demo-
Gratis and for men prominent in the ranks,
but he owned no dictator who could say to
him how he should vote. He discussed the
proposition of tainted money and said there
was no danger to the institutions OF the
state by passing this bill. He had been at
the State university and said some of the
buildings were in a dilapidated condition
and we're sadly in need of repair. Some OF
the professors had offices that the poorest
lawyers of the state would not own, as the
floors were failing TO pieces and there was
a great need of the expenditure of money,
Senator Wiltse spoke for the acceptance
and said he only wished, 1t depended upon
his vote to say whether the state should
take the money.
The final vote on motion not to concur in
the report of the committee of the whole,
but to postpone the bill. was lost, s to %,

Bad Breath and
Sour Stomach
stopped at Once With Pure Willow
Charcoal, the Greatest Gas
AbsOrber Known.

There is no necessity to suffer the hui
initiation, chagrin and discomfort of bad
breath, biliousness, sour stomach, gas
tritis, sluggish liver, etc, when a little
lozenge of charcoal will cleanse the stom-
ach and make 1t pure and sweet.
Do not drug yourself when a simple
little natural charcoal made from fragrant
willow branches, sweetened with honey,
Will add tone to your stomach, liver and
intestines, rapidly absorb gases and stop
foul odors of all kinds.
Charcoal will absorb one hundred times
Its own volume in gas. A box full of
charcoal placed in a bed room will keep
the air of such a room pure and sweet.
A little charcoal lozenge dissolved on
the tongue after meals will also keep the
stomach fresh and clean. Charcoal is
Justly called the scrubbing brush for the
stomach. The old monks of medieval
times cured bad cases of stomach trouble,
cast out devils from the system of man
by feeding such a man charcoal.
Scientific men of today believe in the
great strength of charcoal for the cure
of human ills. Too much of it cannot
harm one. The system Graves it just like
an animal needs and Graves salt every so
often. Charcoal goes into the stomach
gently and is welcome, IT settles down
through the action of the stomach, and
filters through all the food, absorbing gas,
aiding digestion and giving tone to the
juices, so that when the food goes into
the intestines, and there meets other di-
gestive fluids, the charcoal holds the i'm
p~urities and thus keeps them from the
blood.
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges are made
from pure willow. They are prepared
fragrant by the use of honey and sweet
ened so they please the taste and are
easily dissolved.
g have an enormous sale thus
stamping them with the approval of the
public. Every druggist sells them, rs
cents per box, Go to your druggist today
and buy a box; then after your next meal
take two or three of them and Judge for
yourself of their merit.
Several taken at bedtime will prove to
you in the morning that they have been
at work all night, for your bad breath
will not b. so bad after all.
Send us your name and address and we
will send you a trial package by mail free.
