Charcoal Purifies
Any Breath
* ,
And In Its Purest Form Has Long
Been Known As the Greatest
Gas Absorber.
Pure willow charcoal will oxidize
almost any odor and render it sw r eet
and pure. A panful in a foul cellar
will absorb deadly fumes, for charcoal
absorus one hundred times its volume
in gas.
The ancients knew the value of char
coal and administered it in cases of
illness, especially pertaining to the
stomach. In England today charcoal
poultices are used for ulcers, boils,
etc., while some physicians in Europe
claim to cure many skin diseases by
covering the afflicted skin with char
coal pow’der.
Stuart’s Charcoal Lozenges go into
the mouth and transfer foul odors at
once into oxygen, absorb noxious gases
and acids and when swallowed mix
with the digestive juices and stop gas
making, fermentation and decay.
By their gentle qualities they con
trol beneficially bowel action and
f stop diarrhoea and constipation.
Bad breatn. simply cannot exist
when charcoal is used. There are no
ifs or ands about this statement. Don’t
take our word for it, but look into the
matter yourself. Ask your druggist or
physician, or better still, look up char
coal in your encyclopedia. The beauty
of Stuart’s Charcoal Lozenges is that
the highest pharmaceutical expert
knowledge obtainable has been used to
prepare a lozenge that will give to
man the best form of charcoal for
use.
Pure willow and honey is the result.
Two or three after meals and at bed
time sweeten the breath, stop decay
\of teeth, aid the digestive apparatus
and promote perfect bowel action.
They enrich the supply of oxygen to
the system and thereby revivify the
blood and nerves.

KEEP IN THE SUN.
“Oh, dear, oh dear, there’s a chill in
the air,”
Piped the robin one winter morn,
A sitting in shadow down in the
meadow
Under a dead stalk of corn.
And he piped it over and over again
And ruffled his feathers as if in pain.
Then up in the sun, a sparrow begun
To twitter and cheep and sing.
“Oh. sweet, oh, sweet, such a bright
day to greet
Old winter is merry as Spring.
Ch'p, chip, achee-achee; there are
bright things to see,
If the roses and daisies have fled.
The sun is still shining, all sorrow
beguiling
And nothing is really dead.
The flowers will come back and
nobody’s undone
As you’ll see if you’ll only keep in the
sin.”
THE MISSIONARY BIRTHDAY
PARTY.
By Sadie Cleveland.
Mrs. Ellis stood in her little porch
with a perplexed countenance. The
postman had just handed her a letter,
which, upon opening, she found in
closed a little pink-and-green striped
paper sack and a dainty white card,
which Mrs. Ellis read and reread sev
eral times before she could catch the
meaning. The card read thus:
“This birthday party is given to you;
i ’Tis something novel, ’tis something
new.
We send to each this little sack;
Please either send or bring it back
W'th as many cents as you are old —
We promise the number shall never be
told.
A kind friend will give us some good
things to eat,
And the ladies will furnish a musical
treat.
The missionary society, with greetings
most hearty,
Feels sure you will come to your own
b'rthday party.”
Mrs. Ellis read the lines in such a
loud voice that Nellie, who was work
ing with her flowers, dropped her lit
tle hoe and said, “Dear mother, don’t
you think a missionary birthday party
will be nice?” and Nellie’s eyes
sparkled in anticipation.
“But, O dear me!” said Mrs. Ellis in
a melancholy voice, “that will be im
possible, for it is a struggle all the

time to make edges meet. And just
to think, when our ages„are counted
up it will take all of a dollar or so to
fill the little sacks (for they had sent
one to each member of the family).
Well, I sha’nt worry,” she said, going
up the steps; “I trust some way will
be provided for Nellie and her broth
ers to attend.”
Mrs. Ell s was a good woman, but
since her husband's death life had not
been all sunshine. They lived on an
island, and in the summer time the
hotel and boarding houses were filled
with guests who came there for the
surf bathing. Nellie was very fond of
flowers. Every spare spot on the
place was filled with them. Her broth
ers were fond of flowers too, and they
filled a boat that had sprung a leak
(and had been placed in one corner of
the yard) full of good, rich soil. Nel
lie had sowed the seeds in the early
spring, and they came up, and the
flow r ers and vines grew so beautiful
that her friends had dubbed it “Nel
lie’s Floral Boat.”
When Mrs. Ellis went into the house
Nellie returned to her flowers, and
was working so vigorously that she
did not see Mrs. Morton stop until she
bade her good morning, and said in a
sweet, earnest voice: “Nellie, I wish
you would sell me some of your flow
ers every Saturday for our church al
tar. You know I have charge of the
ch urch decorations.”
Nellie's heart beat very fast, and
she was so overjoyed that she let her
hoe drop. She was delighted to think
that she should be able to make some
money, ami now they could all go to
the missionary birthday party. “Do,
dear Mrs. Morton, come with me into
the house to see mother,” she said.
“I know she too will be so pleased.”
It did not take Nellie and Mrs. Mor
ton long to reach the house and seat
themseives in Mrs. Ellis' cool but
plainly furnished s : tt.ing room.
“O mother,” exclaimed Nellie, *,“l
have something good to tell you! Just
think! Mrs. Morton wishes to buy
some of our flowers every Saturday
to place in the altar, and she will pay
us a good sum for them, she says.
Isn't that too good to be true?”
But Mrs.>Cllis gently said: “No,

my dear, we must make our flowers a
free-will offering for the house of the
Lord. Remember, Nellie, in his Word
it. is said: ‘Make not my Father’s
house a house of merchandise.’ ”
Nellie looked disappointed, but Mrs.
Morton said: “You are quite right.”
After a few minutes’ reflection she
said: “Nellie, I have another plan.
In the hotel where I am boarding there
are several invalids. They are
wealthy: have everything but health.
I have often heard them say that they
would willingly pay a good sum if they
could get some one to bring bright
bouquets to their rooms every morn
ing.”
“Now that is an excellent plan,” said
Mrs. Ell’s, “and I shall assist Nellie
every morning in gathering the flow
ers while the dew is still upon them,
and we shall arrange bouquets and
have the boys take them to the hotel.”
Nellie’s plan for making money
worked admirably, and in a year or
so they moved into a larger house, for
their orders from hospitals and other
places were so large that they made
them a large garden and conservatory,
and at Easter Nellie’s flowers fill the
churches; and Mrs. Ellis does not
study any longer how to make edges
meet, for Nellie's flower money has
helped her to attend all the mission
ary birthday parties and aided her to
assist in many good and benevolent
works.

what his or her occupation, who does
