Bad Breath From
Stomach and Catarrh
Many Persons Are Victims of This
Disagreeable Complaint.

1t is quite common to hear of per-
sons being spoken of as thoroughly
agreeable companions, highly enter
tanning in conversation. fascinating and
attractive in manner, gifted, well-read,
accomplished and possessing all the at
tributes and qualifications necessary to
make them desirable guests at parties
and entertainments, but for the single
fact that, for some cause or other,
such as stomach trouble, decay of
teeth, or throat and nasal catarrh, they
are the unfortunate pOsSessors of bad
That one drawback is sufficient to
make them almost universally Shun-
ned, and no matter how erudite or
scholarly they may be-. how much they
may have Travelled, or how large a
fund of interesting anecdote they may
have accumulated, and which they
NAV be capable of relating in an en-
Pertaining manner, the fact that they
are victims of offensive breath causes
every other consideration to be set
aside by their friends
This is indeed unfortunate, and it
has been the means of causing many a
person to avoid society and social in
tercourse, because, realizing as they
do hi disa greeable it must be to
others. and wishing at the same time
to avoid embarrassment and criticism,
they are left with the only alternative
of remaining off to themselves, and
being deprived OF many or the pleas
ures of life.
such a deprivation is, however
wholly unnecessary, and persons who
have long been troubled with foul
breath from any cause, should know
that there is remedy for it's relief,
one which is a powerful absorber and
remover of foul gases from the stom-
ach. and an efficient oxidizer and puri-
fer of offensive breath whether from
stomach or teeth, or caused by ca
farmland that just celebrated remedy
is STUART'S CHARCOAL LOZ-
ENGES.
Thousands of persons testify to the
fact that though they were once vic
them to avoid the companionship of
freely with their friends, to attend en-
tertainments, parties and the theater
and to enjoy life generally, happy in
the thought that through the use of
Stuart's Antiseptic Charcoal Lozenges,
their breath is rendered sweet and
pure, and can not give offense to even
the most fastidious persons.
These wonderfully purifying lozen-
ges. which are composed of the purest
Charcoal and made from willow wood.
will sweeten the foulest breath, purify
the most impure stomach and besides
stopping the fermentation and decom-
position of food, will also remove the
breath-odors resulting from the use of
onions, tobacco, alcohol and German
cheese.

HEARST WILL RUN.
Announces His Acceptance of In
dependent Nomination for Mayor.

New York, Oot s.-w. r. Hearst
has announced that he will accept
the nomination for mayor as ten
dered at a mass meeting Wednesday
night.
Mr.. Hearst's acceptance of an in
dependent mayoraIty nomination
came at the end of day prolific in
developments in the local municipal
political campaign. Earlier in the
day, Supreme Court Justice William
J. Gaynor. the Democratic mayor
atty nominee, issued an interview in
which he disclaimed responsibility
for the nomination of alleged unfit
candidates on the Democratic county
and borough tickets. Charles F.
Murphy, leader of Tammany hall, ac-
cused the Republicans of urging
Hearst to enter the field, in order to
detract from the Democratic vote.
Herbert Parsons, the Republican
county chairman, repeated his for
mer charges that Tammany was
planning wholesale frauds, and Of
fered rewards aggregating $17,5OO,

NOW GOES BACK
TO FIRST WIFE
Second and Third Marriage
Illegal, Says Smith.

New York, Oct. ia matrimonial
tangle, involving the three marriages
of John Cotton Smith, a rubber sales
man, who claims to be a direct de-
scendant of John Cotton, came before
Supreme Court Justice Bischoff on
the application of counsel for Elise
F. Smith, the third wife, to have her
action for separation set down for
trial next Wednesday. Smith is not
opposing this action because he now
believes the marriage was void in the
first place, because the divorce he
thought he got from his first wife is
fraudulent
Smith is now living with his first
wife, having obtained valid divorce
from wife number before he mar
ried the third. OF these three mar
riages, only one child was born, who
is boy IL years old and is the son
of the second wife.
Smith was married to his first wife
Lillian Brown of Kansas City, Kan,
in 1888 They lived together for three
years, but finally separated, and Mrs
Smith went back home Smith said in
an affidavit that he met a man in
Philadelphia in 1892, who represented
himself as a lawyer, and said he
could get a divorce for Smith whether
he had any grounds or not. Smith
says that after about a year the man
showed him what he said was a de-
cree of divorce, which permitted
Smith to marry again. Smith says he
learned later that there was no such
court or judge as was named in the
| decree.
Believing the decree genuine, Smith
married Annie Rowe, in Brooklyn, in
| 1894, but divorced her several years
later. Then Smith married the wo.
man who is now suing for separation
| Smith did not question the validity Of
| the Philadelphia decree until a veal
ago, when the present action was
brought, and his lawyer looked up this
decree and discovered the fraud
Smiths lawyer told him he was still
| the husband of Lillian Brown Smith
| so he wrote to Kansas to find ou
what had become of her. He learned
that shortly after she had been tolt
that Smith had divorced er she mar
| ried Lieut.. Lorenzo Gordon Russell, U
S. A, who was stationed at Kansas
army post
! This marriage was unhappy, ant
when Lieut.. Russell went to the Phil
ippines shortly afterward his wife
got divorce. She was about to be
married again when she got the news
that Smiths divorce from her was
fraudulent, and she wrote Smith this
| letter:

MAY USE AEROPLANES
FOR POSTAL SERVICE.
Some Day Mail Man Will
SCurry Through Air.

New York, Oct. 13.-Postal service
by aeroplane across the African des-
ert is the latest project for applied
aviation. Word comes from Paris that
the French authorities are considering
a scheme worked out by the president
of the National Aerial League on the
basis of the results of the Rheims
aviation week. 1t is a stupendous pro-
ject, since the Sahara is still one of
the greatest barriers to travel and
transportation despite incessant eff

thorities to penetrate it, to establish
security and to improve its hazardous
means of communication Thus the

along the northern, western anC
southern edge of the Sahara, connect
ing Timbuctoo with Algiers. But be-
fore this can be attempted the center
of the desert will have to be brought
within the scope of military police
and posts of unusual strength estab-
lished between the Niger and Colomb-
Bechar, the southern terminal of the
Algerian railroad
Now comes the aeropIane PROPOSE
ton, which puts a new complexion OF
Saharan travel and communication
1t is estimated that the thousand miles
of desert and GASES separating the Nj
ger from Colomb-Bechar could be COW
cred in twenty-four hours by aero
plane At present it takes three months
The aeroplane trip could be made in
three stretches of eight hours each,
three stations being provided for TAX
ing fuel; and the whole journey need
not take longer than three days at the
most. Doubtless, the use of aeroplanes
is not yet sufficiently developed for
such daring undertaking as the
crossing of the Sahara, but it is mani
fest that by conducting experiments on
the edge of the desert with view to
| immediate penetration, practical re-
suits will be attained quicker than by
sportsmanlike contests in Europe.
