A New Texas Organization.

The Texas Travellers is the name of
a new organization of travelling men OF
the state, recently started at Waco. A
temporary organization has been af-
fected with w p. Gilbert, OF Waco, as
secretary. The intention is to COM
plete the organization only after a
substantial membership has been Sc
cured. The Texas Travellers is a sim-
liar organization to the Arkansas
Travellers, and is not a competitor in
any way of any other Organization of
travellers In the state. The cost 81
membership is but 81 a year and the
principal object is to secure from ali
transportation companies and hotels
just and equitable accommodations for
commercial travellers and to encouray
members and others and those con-
Quoting and managing hotels and
managing hotels and transportation
companies to study and adopt the most
modern hygienic methods. The COM
mercial travellers of Texas, among
other things, are vigorously opposing
the parcels post in any form and are
CO. operating with the State Retailers
association in an aggre i've campaign
against mail order houses.

When poss LIE Reain2

The exact time when a railroad

which has beea. RESENTED to the In
terstate Commerce commission. II in
wolves some nice legal points and will
probably be subject to some serious
contention. Several railroad lines
hold that passengers journey begins
when he passes through the gate fro a
the station to the train and his ticker
is punched by the gate man. However.
there are many circumstances under
which the passenger may not take the
train and it has been the custom for
companies to refuse TO refund on tick

HoteI Inspeetion b Missouri.

Sample Case: Brother Tom L.
Johnson, who, with the general en-
dorsement and cordial support of the
commercial travellers organizations az
Missouri, was appointed by Governor
Hadley as state hotel inspector under
the new hotel law in that state, is
having his troubles with indefinite
complaints. He writes us that he is la
receipt of numerous complaints about
hotels in the state, but these come
from individuals of whom he knows
nothing, consequently he cannot see
his way clear to act upon them. He
suggests that all such complaints from
u. G. It's be made to the subordinate
councils or the hotel committees of
same, or to the Grand council of Mis-
souri, or its hotel committee, which
will enable him to have some respon-
sible backing for any action that he
may see fit to take officially in cases
reported. Brother Johnson Is having
the heartiest support Of the T. P. A,
the Northwestern Travelling Mems as
ISOLATION and other national organize
tons in bringing about a better stand
ard of hotels in Missouri. There is no
question of the importance of the De-
pertinent Of Hotel Inspection to the
| interest of commercial travellers gen.
orally, and we bespeak for Brother
| Johnson the active cooperation and
interest Of the members of the u. c. T.
both in Missouri and throughout the
country where their travels bring then
into relations with the hotels under
his supervision. Those holding mem.
bership outside Of the Grand Jurisdfc.
ton of Missouri should file their com.
plants through Grand Secretary A
F. Carter, whose address Is 1011 10.
Gust street, Chillicothe, Mo, for the
attention of the Grand council, and
those holding membership in Missouri
should communicate their complaints
to the secretaries OF their subordinate
councils. Assurance need scarcely bt
given that they will receive merited q
tention. with that promptness which
is even characteristic of Brother Ton

Fermentation and
Flatulence Prevented
In the Stomach by Charcoal, the Great
Absorbent, Anti Fermsntative,
and DaodoranA

/ FNU&NF3@HEe %Nkt~E GFEn@NLAhtN@g
and Deodorant.
Some years ago DR.. Belloc, q retired
surgeon OF the French army. turned
his attention to charcoal as a remedy
for dyspepsia, fermentation and fiatu-
lence, or gas in the stomach and intes-
tines. He was himself sufferer from
these symptoms. and thus had an OPP
portunitg of testing personally it's
therapeutic action.
He decided after many tests that
charcoal made OF willow wood was by
far the best He found that charcoal
made OF other woods caused a disa-
greeable taste in the mouth--even
painful excavations of the mucous
membrane, as well as thirst, and a
pinching sensation In the stomach; but
not one of these symptoms ever occur
red when willow charcoal was employ
ed.
He was in the habit OF prescribing
from two to six teaspoonfuls for his
patients. but he himself frequently took
as much as 500 grammes. or more than
fifteen ounces per day. There is really
no such thing as taking TOO much char
coal. An excess cannot be taken, for
the reason that the more you take the
better 1t Is for you, as 1t lis entirely
harmless, and through it's use your
system will be completely cleansed OF
all its impurities. the fermentation of
food and the formation OF gas in the
stomach prevented and the absorption
of toxic products or poisonous material
into the blood from the stomach and
intestines estopped.
When regular physician took as
much as fifteen ounces OF charcoal
daily, its harmlessness and beneficial
effects as an absorbent, deodorant.
germ destroyer and dyspepsia cure
should be apparent to all.
The Academic Rationale de Medicine
Of Paris reported very favorably on a
memoir which DR.. Belloc published on
the use of charcoal, and in France it
soon became a favorite remedy. It's
reputation spread to this country and
now we ind charcoal lozengers extern
sively sold, prescribed and employed
as dyspepsia remedies. DIR. Belloc's
charcoal was administered to his pa
tients in the form OF a powder stirred
up in water. which was very DISAGREE
able to the taste, and its efficacy was
far less than in the form of lozenge
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges are a
this form of administering charcoal
They are. made of the best willow
charcoal, freshly prepared, and render
ed exceedingly palarabIe by the addi-
ton Of pure honey, which gives them
taste that is in strong contrast to
that Of ordinary powdered charcoal
Nothing could be more efficacious in
its effects than charcoal given in this
desirable form. Two or three Of
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges taken after
meals are sufficient to give complete
relief. Go to your druggist and buy
box, but insist on having Stuart's

A Last Word.

In another column we print this
week an extended article written by
Abby N. Garland, of Bangor, on the
splendors of the programs to be given
at the music festival at Bangor be-
ginning tomorrow evening, and con-
tinuing through Friday and Saturday.
We want again to emphasize the
great opportunity these festivals af-
ford of hearing the best of music
by great chorus and famous artists,
and played by an Incompatible or
chestra-all at an expense ridicu-
lousy small when compared with the
cost of similar performances in the
great cities.
Besides the satisfaction derived
from hearing performances of this
character, the fact should not be over
looked that the work of the festival
association does not begin and end
with the three days of the festival; it
is permeating the entire State with
the Importance of the development
of taste for good music, and an APP
probation of its influence on the life OF
the State in the home, in the church
and in society.
