THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It la In
Preserving Health and Beauty.
Nearly everybody know* that char
coal |a the safest and moat efficient
disinfectant and purifier In nature, but
few realize Its value when taken Into
the human system for the same
eie&nslng purpose.
Charcoal Is a remedy that the more
you take of It the better; It la not a
drug at all, but simply absorb* the
gases and impurities always present
In the atomarh and Intestines and
carries them out of the system.
Charroal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating
onions and other odorous vegetables
Charcoal effectually clears and im
proves the complexion, It whitens the
teeth and further acts us a natural and
eminently safe cathartic.
It absorbs the injurious gases which
collect In the stomaeh and bowels. It
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh
All drtigglats sell rhareoal In one
form or another, but probably the best
charroal and the most for the money
Is In Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges;
they are composed of the finest pow
dered Willow rhareoal. nnd other
harmless antiseptics In tablet fotm or
rather In the form of large, pleasant
tasting lozenges, the charcoal being
mixed with honey.
The daily use of these lozenges will
soon tell In a mtieh Improved condi
tion of the general health, better com
plexlon .sweeter breath and purer
blood, and the beauty of It Is, that no
possible harm can result from their
continued use, but on the contrary,
great benefit.
A Buffalo physician in speaking of
the benefits of charcoal says: "I ad
vise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all
patients suffering from gas in stom
ach and bowels, and to clear the com
plexion and purify the breath, mouth
and throat; I also believe the liver
is greatly benefited by the daily use
of them; they cost but twenty five
cents a box at drug stores, and al
though In some sense a patent pre
paration, yet I believe I get more and
better charcoal In Stuart's Charcoal
Lozenges than In any of the ordinary
charroal tablets."
DASH WORTH MONEY.
Operator Left One Out and Company
Lost $2,200.
NEW YORK. Jnn. 20.—A dash on
a telegraph instrument requiring a
fraction of a second in sending, but
which an operator failed to put in
will cost the Postal Telegraph com
pany $2,200 if a verdict handed down
by a Jury in the supreme court of
Brooklyn goes into effort.
This is what was sent:

contract for a lot of bags with Ar

been instructed to mark whatever
stock is left at prices that wtll make

AT THE Y. M. C. A.
The Y. M. C. A. of this city has
had printed a handsome little book
let entitled "A Paving Investment".
In which the "annual dividends" for
the year 1905 are declared. The
booklet is very attractively gitten up
and will prove interesting to all. It.
is condensed as it is claimed to be
“prepared for busy men.” The re
port shows a fine work done during
the year and give* facts and figures
Instead of visionary arguments that
so often are used In the urging of
support for purposes of this kind.
For the year of 1905 some of the
things accomplished aer given but ot
course, the greater portion of the
work Is In the influence that the as
sociation has over the lives of the
young men. The pamphlet Is prepar
ed under four general heads and
they cover practically all of the work
done during the year that can be got
ten up in this manner.
Physical Work.

men. intermediate and Juniors. Total,
12 classes weekly.
Fully 20,000 baths taken, new
swimming pool installed, successful
basket ball series, ets.

Several young men directed to
eood boarding places and a few situa
tions found for men.
There is an appeal to the Chris
tian people of the city that Is made
In such a manner that It could not be
improved tipon. It is as loiiows:
Cost of work for 19<k> $5,600
We need for 1906 6.000
We hope to receive from mem
berships 2,500
We trust our friends will con
tribute .$3,500
Thus is the appeal for the contin
uation of the Y. M. C. A. of Augusta.
HAVE YOU SEEN THE NEW
SILK AND WASH WAISTS?
Have you seen the new silk and
wash waists? We have in mind the
new line of silk and wash waists just

precaution to overcome this in the future, and feel safe

THE "KITTYHAW."
The "Kittyhaw" will kiss the Sa
vannah river next Tuesday. The
"Kitty" is a new river boat, built by
Mr. A. H. Metgle. The new boat is
something out of the ordinary in the
wav of river steamers. This boat is
a napthaline launch, built for outing
parties on the river.
Mr. Meigle has been superintend
ing the construction of the "Kitty
haw" for the last three or four
months. Mr. Toni Shinall has been
the constructor of this neat little
craft. It will be ready for service In
a couple of weeks.
She is building at the premises of
Mr. Meigle and her dimensions are
about 30x8 feet. She is a rear wheel
paddle driver, run by a gasoline qjo
tor. and by means of a belt from the
paddle wheel a dynamo is operated
that furnishes eleetric power for
lighting the boat. The "Kittyhaw
is small, but large enough for all pur
poses for which she was designed—
to take parlies on outing trips down
the river. She is so arranged that
the passengers ran Kuve meals on
board, cooked in a small hut conven
ient kitchen. Lockers are fitted in
the floor of the cabin so that luggage
can he carried on a trip. She Is
unique in that she is one of few pad
dle wheel craft operated by a gaso
line motor connected with the paddles
hv a crank. She has been building
for the past eight, weeks, and as
stated, will be ready for river service
In a couple of weeks.
