Trial Packagt By Mail, Fras. Pyrosis (Gastric palq). gastritis and many other stomach and bowel troubles caused by formation of gas, are almost Instantly removed by a generous use of Stuart’s Charcoal Lozenges. These tittle lozenges kill had breath and atop gas-making by oxidizing the odors and gases, charcoal absorbs one hundred time* Itself In gas. They turn foul fumes and gases Into oxygen, which sweeten the system. They are made from pure willow and eweet Imney and arp a delightful aid to thv mouth, stomach and bowels. The Japa nese use charcoal for a toothwash and an old Chinese proverb runs thus: "Sweet Is the breath of a Nlnonese” (Japanese). The mouth fluids are alkaline, thus waste food held by tooth cavities Is attacked and decays rapidly, causing foul odors to arise. Charcoal renders the saliva sweet by oxidising It and does away with foul fermentations and decay. Every druggist carries Rtuart’s Char. •at Loxenges and many thousands at sufferer* from gas. foul breath, etc., use these little toxenge*. thus proving their popularity and their merit. Charcoal le one of the best all-around cleansers the system may partake of and. too much of It can not be taken. An entire box of Rtuart’s Charcoal Loxenges may be eaten with freedom ond only good will result.
