Know How Cscful It Is in Preserving Health anil Beauty. Nearly everybody knows that char coal is the safest and most efficient disinfectant and purifier in nature, but few realize its value when taken into the human system for the same cleans ing purpose. Charcoal is a remedy that the more you take of it the better; it Is not a drug at all, but simply absorbs the gases and impurities always present in the stomach and intestines and car ries them out of the system. Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating on ions and other odorous vegetables. Charcoal effectually clears and im proves the complexion: it whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural, and eminently safe cathartic. It absorbs the injurious gases which collect In the stomach and bowels; it disinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh. All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probably the best charcoal and the most for the money is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoal, and other harmless antiseptics in tablet form 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 much improved condi tion of the general health, better com plexion, 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 Buff alb 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 dally use of them; they cost but twenty-five cents a box at drug stores, and although in some sense a patent preparation, yet I believe I get more and better char coal in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges than In any of the ordinary charcoal tablets.” SPECIAL NOTICES.
