now This, of course, is an impossfbility,
for the stock market is as restless as the
waters of the ocean, and its movements
are beyond the control of any element ex-
cepting in the minor fluctuations or in
some specially pooled issue. Broad, gen.
eral conditions are governed by forces to
which everybody, big and little, must
show obendience-or get run over.
An Incident of the week was Mr.. George
Baer's testimony in the government suit
for the dissolution of the Anthracite Coal
trust. His sworn testimony that there is
no trust, and no agreement between the
hard coal roads as to production or prices
made everybody draw a long sbreath of
establishment. Mr. Baer seems to have q
practical monopoly on this information.
1t is of public record in variety of
ways and in number of lawsuits that
the anthracite road through the Temple
Iron and Coal company regulates the per-
centage Of production by each road, and
that the entire anthracite market Is reg
ulated by price agreement; also that the
Independents are restricted arbitrarily In
the matter of production In the face o
all these known facts, Mr.. Baer calmly
asserts that black is white. He is GER
tainly good thing and worth to the An
thracite Coal trust all he costs.
The failure of that big bank out in
Oklahoma and the scream of pain which
is being emitted by the bankers of that
state over the call for 2 per cent pay
ment into the guaranty fund, causes
amusement hereabouts. When the law
was passed by Oklahoma and other west
ern states, the opinion was freely ex-
pressed in banking circles that it was a
premium on wildcat banking. That view
seems to be confirmed by the Oklahoma
incident. and now the further prediction
Is heard that within very short time
the law in question will be wiped off of
the statute books of every state that
adopted it-that the states will be obliged
In self-defense to take this back step. 1t
Is recalled that that very part of the
west which has given encouragement to
guaranteed deposits was kept back many
years by enactment of laws against the
safety of capital.

stomach Eases.
The accumulation of gas In the stom-
ach is caused in the following ways:
[. II may be swallowed in large guam
titles during certain abnormal conditions
Of the stomach and food-tract. q 1t may
be produced by decomposition of food in
the alimentary system. 3. 1t is often
evolved from changes of the mucous Sc
cretions themselves 4. Transuded from
the blood. g. Regurgitated from the duo
denum or first portion of the small intes-
tines. and in some cases from fistulous
communication with the large intestines,
s. Gas of an extremely offensive kind is
produced by the decomposition of a NOR
bid growth In the stomach, such as cam
GER, ulcer, tumor, etc. Z. Some forms of
food are more prone than others to cause
stomach gas, including sugar, starch,
beans, peas, etc.
To relieve the distressing symptoms of
gaseous distension of the stomach no
matter what the cause may be, 1t has
been found by numerous experiments that
the most reliable and valuable remedy is
charcoal, which directly absorbs all gas
eous substances in the alimentary sys-
tenn, besides oxidzing and destroying foul
odors, and anti-septically cleaning the
stomach and intestinal system from one
end to the other as thoroughly as soap
and water cleanses the skin.
The late DR.. Deared of England strong
ly advocated the use OF willow charcoal in
the form of lozenges for the alienation of
such stomach symptoms as indigestion,
fermentation, decomposition and bloating.
1t has also been found extremely service
able in relieving secondary Preventative
changes In the large intestine, when adj
ministered in the form of an enema.
In Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges we have
the very best form in which this great gas
absorbent and purifier can be admins
tered. They are composed of the finest
willow wood, treated by a special car
bonizthg process, and after being COM
bned with pure honey to render them pal
atable, they are compressed into lozenge
which is as agreeable to the palate as
candy, and no one could possibly object to
their taste.
Go to your druggist and purchase
package of these powerful little absorb
ents which are capable of absorbing 100
times their own volume in gases, but be
sure to ask for Stuart's Charcoal Loz-
enges, as there are numerous cheap and
inferior substitutes and limitations on the
market, and 1t may be that you have
given one of these minor brands a trial
and found that 1t did not give satisfaction;
If so, don't fail to try Stuart's Charcoal
Lozenges, as their superiority and the vast
