A CLOSE SHAVE
Many of Them Happening Every Day
 but Soon Forgotten.

Close slaves would be of more fre- uuent occurrence but for the tender faces of many men, which will not per init of shaving often. Heretofore, nothing has been said in these columns about poslam, a new skin discovery, in connection with it's use after shaving. Its publicity and sales have been con fined almost exclusively. to its remark able properties as an eczema cure: 1t stops the itching at once and cures the worst cases in a few days. While the application of poslam after shay ing is one of its minor uses, such as for pimples, the complexion, etc., shavers will find 1t a revelation. as 1t does for abrasions, roughness and severe ecrapings what 1t does for all manner of skin difficulties-heals and cures in a few hours. It is the only article possessing real antiseptic and curative value that has ever been ex- plotted for this purpose, and will soothe and tone up the skin as no toilet prep aration could possibly do.
 Poslam can be had for 50 cents at any reliable druggists. particularly Jacobs Pharmacy, who make a spe- cialty of 1t. Or the Emergency Labo- ratories, No. 32 West Twenty-fifth street, New York city, will send a trial supply free by mail to any one who will write for it. This is sufficient to show results in 24 hours.

Charcoal LOZengeS
 Powerful Absorbent
Offensive Breath and Stomach Gases Cannot Exist When They Are Used.

Offensive Breath and Stomach Gases Cannot Exist When They Are Used. Charcoal, by virtue of its porous na- ture, takes up gases mechanically just as a sponge takes up water. Its ca-
 pacity in this respect is in proportion 1 to the number and fineness of its pores. Charcoal made from poplar, beech wood, vegetable ivory, cocoanut shells
 and willowwood, is compact, heavy
 substance, having metallic luster, the pores being quite invisible.
 Chemical tests of various kinds per formed by expert chemists have re- from wiliowwood, is not only absolutely harmless, but that it is by far the most powerful absorbent of all kinds of gases. Certain other woods, mentioned above, are used by some manufacturers In making charcoal, and besides not being half as effective in absorbing
 stomach gases. have also been found to be positively harmful to the digestive system.
 Wil1oww ood charcoal is, then, the very best for the purpose of absorbing excessive gas of the stomach, removing intestinal fiatus, and purifying foul breath. Charcoal to be effective against
 gastric flatulence must be introduced
 among the gases of the stomach in the same state as when fresh from tn @ crucible. The means of effecting this is to compress them into soluble loz- enges, so that after being dissolved in the mouth and swallowed the charcoal is "set free" and at once begins it's work of oxidizing and absorbing foul gases, and also, through it's antiseptic properties of purifying the entire ali mentary tract.
 It is definitely known that the ab-
 sorbent and cleansing action of char
 coal Is protracted and continued through the intestinal system as well as in the stomach, and 1t proves bene- ficial there also.
 In STUARTS CHARCOAL LOZENG ES we have a gas-absorbing remedy which readily takes precedence over all oth CTS The charcoal used in them Is the very best that can be obtained They are composed of the finest young will lowwood, converted into charcoal by the special, carbonizing Stuart Process, and before being compressed into Lozenges, the powdered charcoal is rendered 1! sweet and thoroughly agreeable to the taste by being mixed with pure honey, and the result Is a product equally as palatable as candy.
 Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges have at tained a wide popularity among the people, millions of boxes being sold
 every year They have, over and over again proven thu efficiency as rapid and powerful absorbents of foul
 stomach gases relieving and curing
 flatulence, belching, or the eructatics1
 of gases, and finally in tho purification
 of offensive breath.
