The sto1y Of Joshua's life is a story
OF continued success. In his first ap-
p~earance as the leader Of Israefs army
at the battle Of Rephidim against the
Amalekites he won a signal victory.
AS one Of the twelve spies tent into
Canaan. when Israel first reached Ca
naan. he. with Caleb. brought back az
honest report. The majority were
against him. and his counsel was dis
regarded. But his seeming failure
was finally a success. for he and Caleb
were on the Lords side. and they of ali
the original hosts OF Israel who came
out Of Egypt entered the promised
land. The mantle of Moses fell upon
hin when that grea leader and law
giver died. and be was a most worthy
of his distinguished prede-
cessor. Canaan was conquered. The
land was peaceably divided. In good
old age Joshua died after delivering
TO his fellow countrymen a mos; IN

Bloated Stomach
and Belching
OF Gas Is Prevented by Using Char.
coal, Which Absorbs and Re-
moves Stomach Gases.

This accumulation of gas in the
stomach is caused in the following
ways: 1. 1t may be swallowed in large
quantities during certain abnormal
conditions of the stomach and food
tract. ,. 1t may be produced by de-
composition of food in the alimentary
system. 3. 1t is often evolved fror,
changes of the mucous secretions them
selves. t. Transuded from the blood.
d. Regurgitated from the duodenum
or first portion of the small intestines.
and in some cases from a f%istulous
communication with the large intes-
tine. &. Gas of an extremely often
sive kind is produced by the decompo-
sition of a morbid growth in the stom-
ach. such as cancer, ulcer, tumor. etc.
Z. Some forms of food are more prone
than others to cause stomach gas. in
Guiding sugar, starch. beans, peas. etc.
To relieve the distressing symptoms
or gaseous ~distenSion of the stomach.
no matter what the cause NAV be. il
has been found by numerous expert
ments that the most reliable and val,l-
able remedy is charcoal. which direct
ly absorbs all gaseous substances in
the alimentary system. besides oxi-
dizing and destroying foul odors. and
antiseptically cleaning the stomach
and intestinal system from one end to
the other as thoroughly as soap and
water cleanses the skin.
The late DR.. Leared Of England
strongly advocated the use of willow
charcoal in the form of lozenges for the
alienation of such stomach symptoms
as Indigestion. fermentation. decom-
position and bloating. 1t has also
been found extremely s~erviceable in
relieving secondary Preventative
changes in the large intestine. when
administered 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 administered. They are composed
of the finest willow wood. treated by a
special carbonizing process. and after
being compined with pure honey %
render them %palatable, they are COM
pressed into a lozenge, which is as
agreeable to the palate as candy. and

taste.
