The Roosevelt Polic Still another departure from Presi- dent Roosevelt's “policies” is made in putting the new extension of the White house directly over the ground where the Roosevelt cabinet used to play tennis.—Philadelphia Record. Distension of the Stomach by Air And Eructations of Gas Rapidly Relieved by Stuart’s Char- coal Lozenges. Willow charcoal is the most import- ant and the purest kind of charcoal obtainable. Wood consists of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, and when heat- ed in a room where the supply of air is limited, the more volatile matte are burned away, and most of the car-~ bon remains. In a finely divided state charcogl not only condenses gases to a marvelous extent, but also has the power of ab- sorbing coloring matters. It is a very rapld absorbent of gases of every kind and is much used in the dissecting rooris and wards of hospitals for e removal of offensive odors. In rooms which have been recently | or freshly painted; a pan or other re- ceptacle of charcoal allowed to re- ‘main therein over night, will complete. ly absorb and remove all the disagree- able paint-odor. Physicigns frequently employ char- coal for destroying the fetor of wounds, | for which purpose it 1s applied in the | form of a powder or poultice to gan- grenous sores, uicers, etc. It is also largely used in tooth powdes | its mechanical action it re | crustations of the teeth, while, by its chemical action it desfroys fetor, or foulness of the breath. In indigestion, accompanied by flat- ulence, or gas on the stomach, and belching, and in the colic of infants, or_older persons, as well as the So- called “lead colic” or “painter's colic” | charcoal is by far the best and most powerful remedy that can be used. Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges should be used frequently or constantly by painters, or workers in lead, and ail persons ‘whose occupations make them Tiable to “lead colic.” They should also be employed by anyone who suffers from those annoying symptoms of in- digestion, such as fermentation, de- composition of food, flatulence or gas in the stomach, colicky pains, result- ing from the over-distention of the intestines with gas, and the rumbling noises of the powels with which so many dyspeptics suffer, and which prove so annoying and embarrassing when occurring while in company.
