. THE V ALL 12 OF CHARCOAL.
Pew reeple Kaon How Useful It la la
Preserving Health and Ueaaty.
Ncurly everybody knows that charcoal '
the safest uul most efficient disinfectant
and purifier in nature, but few realise Its
value when taken Into the human system
for the same cleansing purposs.
Charcoal Is a remedy that the more you
take of it the better; it la not a drug at
nil, but simply absorbs the gases and Im
purities always present in the stomach and
intestines and carries them out of the
system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after smok
ing, drinking or after eating onions or
other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and Improves
the 'completion, it whitens the teeth and
further acts as a natural and lmluently
safe fathartie.
Itf absorbs the Injurious gases which
'"auct in the stomach and bowels; It dis
infects .the mouth and taroat from the
poison catarrh.
Alt druggist sell charcoal in one form or
another, but probably the beat charcoal
and the most for the money is in Stuart's
Charcoal Losengea; they are composed of
the finest powdered Willow charcoal, and
other harmless antiseptics in tablet form
or rather in the form of large, pleasant
testing losenges, the charcoal being mixed
with honey. . .
The dally use of these losenges will soon
till In a much Improved condition of the
general health, better complexion, 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
tstuart's Charcoal Losenges to all patients
suffering from gas ii stomach and bowels,
and to clear the complexion and purify
tlis breath, mouth and throat; I also believe
the liver is greatly benefited by the dally
use of them; they cost but B cents a hog
at drug stores, and although In some sense
a patent preparation, yet I believe I get
mo' and belter charcoal In Stuart's Char
roaiXosenges than In any of the ordinary
fa-ii;. Ubleta.",

WOMAN IN CLUB AND CHARITY
The tenth annual convention of the .Ne
braska Federation of Women's clubs, held
last week at Seward, would have con
vinced the most apprehensive guardian of
the home that sacred Institution I In no
danger of being neglected by the mother
and wives who belong to th,e federation. If
the convention could be said to have had
a distinctive feature, that feature was do
mestic science or household economics. The
two paid speakers on the program, Mrs.
Nellie Kedzle Jones of Michigan and Mrs.
Hiller, principal of the Chicago School of
Domestic Science, both women of national
reputation, spoke on these topics, the for
mer speaking on "Rational Education for
Future Homemakers," and the latter on
"The Art of Serving a Dinner." In spite of
a storm, both sessions were largely at
tended. The failure of Judge Ben Llndsey
of Denver to be present to deliver his ad
dress on "The Juvenile Court." wa a keen
disappointment, but It Is hoped thnt Juritc
Llndsey will be able to visit Nebraska
some time In November.
The convention wa not as largely at
tended this year a usual and the delegates
were lster In arriving. The voting strength
was about 180 and the visiting women num
bered about fifty.
The Commercial club of Seward paid the
club women of the etate a double compli
ment Wednesday afternoon In receiving
them at their club rooms after a drive
about the city and presenting each a souve
nir badge mounted by a button photograph
of Mr. S. E. Langworthy of Seward.
Thl little compliment to Mrs. Langworthy,
which was a surprise to all, was at once
a tribute to a woman who has hid a ma
terial part In making the Nebraska Fed
eration and Its tenth annual meeting, a
success, and a souvenir that will be valued
by every woman of the state. Mrs. Lang
worthy wa the Federation's second presi
dent snd has since served n chairman of
several1 of It most Important standing
committees.
The election of Mrs. H. M. Bushnell of
Lincoln to the presidency Is particularly
acceptable to the club women of the state.
as Mrs. Bushnell Is not only personally
popular, but has through long service In
the federation demonstrated her ability to
preside over it. Mrs. Bushnell was chair
man of thl year's program committee.
To the retiring president, Mrs. W. E. Page
belongs credit for a general and practical
extension of club work In the state and
aside from this service she will be remem
bered by all who attended the Fremont
and Seward conventions for her unfailing
courtesy and justice as a presiding officer.
One hundred and flfty-nlne voting dele
gates attended the thirtieth annual con
vention of the Nebraska Women's Chris
tian Temperance union, held at Lincoln last
week. It being the largest convention that
has yet been held. There was also a large
attendance of visiting white rtbboners and
the women feel that their decision to hold
the annual meeting at Lincoln for three
successive years was wise, as Its location
enables the women to attend and still reach
their homes before Saturday. The year Just
closed has been altogether profitable, 2.800
members and thirty-one new unions hav
ing been added, while the treasurer re
ported $1,000 in the treasury. While It Is
not generally known, the union pays Its
executive officers each a small salary.
These salaries are necessarily small, but
the work demands much time and effort
of the executive committee and It Is thought
but right' that some small compensation
be made. The president Is paid 1300 a
year, the corresponding secretary $75, treas
urer 175, recording secretary $25 and vice
president $10. The expenses to and from
board meetings are also paid.
The action of the convention In pledging
the support of the state to the temple
bonds will be received with interest, not
only In Nebraska, but by unions generally,
because of the opposition the temple project
has received from the national organiza
tion. Over $125 was pledged to the fund,
the Omaha union giving $10 of this. The
local union also pledged $50 to the stnts
work for the year. The convention further
agreed against raising the national dues
from 10 to 15 cents per capita.
The Daughters of the American Revolu
tion of Nebraska will hold their annual
conference Wednesday and Thursday of
this week In Lincoln. Mrs. Waugh of that
city has extended the hospitality of her
spacious home and upon their arrival In
the city the Daughters will be entertained
at luncheon there. -At 2 o'clock the confer
ence will open the session to be held In
the ball room and In the evening a large
reception will be held. Thursday morning
there will be another business session and
Prof. Howard of the University of Ne
braska will address the women. Mrs. A.
Allee of Omaha, state regent, will preside,
and It Is expected that there will be a
largo attendance. The Omaha chapter is
to be largely represented. While there is
nothing to prevent the continued service
of the state regent.- there Is an Unwritten
rule in Nebraska that she retire after the
fecond term and Mrs. S. C. Langworthy
of Seward Is evidently the unanimous choice
of the Daughter as a successor to Mrs.
Allee. Mrs. Allee returned Friday from St.
Louis, where si attended the meeting of
th,e Daughters of the American Revolu
tion October 11. The Omaha delegation will
leave for Lincoln at 8:40 Wednesday morn
ing, via the Burlington.
The Nebraska Toung Woman's Christian
association will meet In annual convention
at University Place, Lincoln, October 21-23,
tho association at Wesleyan university to
act as hostess. The organization now In
cludes associations at the University of
Nebraska, five denominational Institutions,
