THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL. Few People Know How Useful It Is in Preserving Health and 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 cleansing 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- jons 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 Lozen- ges; they are composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoal and other harmless antiseptics in tablet form, or rather in the form of large, pleas- | ant tasting lozenges, the charcoal be- | ing 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 Buffalo physician, in speaking of the benefits of charcoal, says: “I advise | Stuart’s Charcoal Lozenges to all pa- | tients suffering from gas in stomach | and bowels and to clear the complex- | jon and purify the breath, mouth and throat; I also believe the liver is' greatly benefited by the daily use of | them; they cost but 25 cents a box at | drug stores and although in some | sense a patent preparation, yet I be- ' lieve I get more and better charcoal in Stuart’'s Charcoal Lozenges than in any of the ordinary charcoal tablets.” —_—_—e Gaelic. At every other Japanese port Captain Bollman was the first man inquired for, and, although there was no more searching, the eye of the Gevernment was on him whenever he sought the fresh air. He is glad to be on neutral ground, but the Japanese secret service experi- ence has got into his system and he declines to express any opinion about anything concerning either Russia or Japan. ! “I am a Russian. My wife is a Jap- | arese. I ami between two fires. See me when the war is over.” ————— Conklin's self-filling pen is sold by Edward Knowles Company, 24 Second st. . quickly followed by a general order | requiring division superintendents to make signal tests every month and re- { ADVERTISEMENTS. i port the results. The discipline in| each case of failure was by the Brown | system, . which makes promotion de- | {pendent on an employe's efficiency as | disclosed by a complete marking sys-& tem. The tests were inaugurated over all the roads composing the Harriman | | combine, with the result that in Octo- | ber last there was a total of 933 with | the remarkable record of only five | | failures, thereby increasing the ef-| | flency to 99.5. As the failures were of | an unimportant nature the director of | maintenance and operations of the | Harriman lines has accepted the rec- | ord as showing perfection in operation so far as observing signals is con- | | cerned. Director Kruttschnitt has now is-| sued a table showing that on a tramn | mileage basis the average number of casualties along the Harriman lines during this year was only 50 per cent | of the average of all the railroads in | the United States. It is the intention | of Director Kruttschnitt to make a se- | | ries of tests during the coming year | with a view of still further perfecting ! the method of operating trains if pos- sible.

CC et 111 to 121 Post Street :. sk ANOTHER QUEER ACTION IS BEGUN BY LAPIQUE Pork Packer, Who Studied Yaw in Prison, Seeks to Annul a Num- ber of Court Decrees. John Lapique, the pork packer, { who spent the greater part of ten years in prison studying law and then | surprised forty-five i and lawyers, officials citizens by suing them for $650,000 damages for malicious prose- cution, has begun another suit in the Superior Court. Yesterday, in propria persona, he filed a complaint containing twenty- eight typewritten pages and praying for twenty separate decrees and deci- In this case the de- fendants are not so numerolls, there being only nineteen of them, includ- ing Abraham Ruef, who headed the list in the other action. The defend- ants are described as guardians, ad- ministrators, attorneys, clerks, agents, etc., of the estate of Jean Louis Ader, deceased, and friends, relatives and servants of the plaintiff. They are charged with having conspired to coerce him to transfer valuable per- sonal property, extorting money from him and to conceal their own fraudu- lent acts by bringing many insanity and criminal charges against him, which resulted in his imprisonment for periods aggregating ten years. The action in this instance is to set ! aside a dozefl or more court decrees, sales, etc., in connection with the set- tlement of the Ader estate. He claims that in 1895 he owned the fittings and business of the Silver King lodging- house at 514 Bush street, worth $1450. He claims that this was wrongfully taken from him and sold and that he was forced to sign certain claims against the Ader estate under threats of imprisonment. He also says he was compelled in the same way to in- dorse a note for $1000 to the defend- ants. He wants the note paid, the $1450 and $200 a month damages from July, 1895, to date. ——— i George Mayerle's Eyewater strengthens weak eyes, rests tired or dischargin, T T areas IO Marker ot eyes.
