Other people notice your bad
breath where you would not notice
it at all. It is nauseating to other
people to stand before them and
while you are talking, give them a
Whiff or two of your bad breath. It
usually comes from food fermenting
on your stomach. .Sometimes you
have it in the morning that awful
sour, bilious, bad breath. You can
stop that at once by swallowing one
or two Stuart Charcoal Lozenges, the
most powerful gas and odor absorb
ers ever prepared.
Sometimes your meals will reveal
themselves in your breath to those
who talk with you. "You've had
onions," or "You've been eating cab
bage," and all of a sudden you belch
in the face of your friend. Char
coal is a wonderful absorber of odors,
as every one knows. That is why
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges are so
quick to stop all gases and odors of
odorous foods, or gas from indiges
tion. Don't use breath perfumes. They
never conceal the odor, and never
absorb the gas that causes the odor.
Besides, the very fact of using them
reveals the reason for their use.
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges in the
first place slop for good all sour
brash and belching of gas, and make
your breath pure, fresh and sweet,
Just after you've eaten. Then no one
will turn his face away from you
when you breathe or talk; your
breath will be pure and fresh, and
besides your food will taste so much
better to you at your next meal.
Just try it.
Charcoal does other wonderful
things, too. It carries away from
your stomach and intestines, all the
impurities there massed together
and which causes the bad breath.
Charcoal Is a purifier as well as an
absorber.
Charcoal is now by far the best,
most easy and mild laxative known.
A whole boxful will do no harm; in
fact, the more you take the better.
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges are made
of pure willow charcoal and mixed
with just a- faint flavor of honey to
make them palatable for you, but not
too sweet. You just chew them like
candy They are absolutely harm
less. Get a now, nure sweet breath,
freshen "your stomach for your next
meal, and keep the intestines in good
working order. These two things
are, the. secret of good health and
long life. You can get all the char
coal necessary to do these wonder
ful but simple things by getting
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges. We
want you to test these little wonder
workers yourpelf before you buy
them. So send us your full name and
address for a free sample of Stuart's
Charcoal Lozenges. Then after you
have tried the sample, and been con
vinced, go to your druggist and get
a 25c box of them. You'll feel bet
ter all over, mbre comfortable, and
"cleaner" inside,

man houso ono evening just before
the election, delivering an impas
sioned appeal for tho free and un
limited coinage of silver at a ratio
of 16 to 1. Around him were gath
ered interested listeners, skeptics It
is true, devotees of the gold stand
ard, but deeply interested in tho
flow of eloquenco which tho senator
poured upon them. In tho midst of
one of tho most fervid .passages a
slim", slight, rosy cheeked youth, of
twenty-two or twenty-three summers,
paused In front of tho senator, his
cigarette loosely hold between tho
first two fingers of his right hand,
and after listening to his impas
sioned address for a moment, raised
a monocle to his right eye, and ex
claimed: "Senator, would you answer mo
ono question?"
Slowly and with dignity the sen
ator, good naturedly disregarding
the interruption, looked his inquisi
tor full In the face, smiled and said:
"Excuse mo, sonny, I am not
through yet, but just as soon as I
finish I shall be pleased to answer
you any question that you may want
to ask," and turning again to his
audience the sonator continued his
argument.
Four separate times tho gilded
youth attempted to brealc in upon
tho conversation, and finally, as
though he were a conquering horo,
he exclaimed, shaking his diminutive
fist at the burly form of the senator:
"I know what is the matter. You
are afraid to answer me."
The senator paused, looked the
youth full in the eye, and without a
ruffle appearing upon the serenity
of his countenance, exclaimed:
"No, sonny, I'm not afraid. I'm
ashamed to answer any question you
could ask."
Tho youth disappeared amidst the
jeers and laughter of the audience,
and the senator finished his argu
ment without further interruptions.

TIT FOR TAT
Young Stevens was on his way
north to spend the week-end with
his parents, and felt in a particu
larly jovial mood.
The train In which he was trav
eling had stopped at a small village.
As a farmer, who was sauntering
up and down the platform, came op
posite Stevens' compartment he was
asked by the youth if he knew- the
Duke of Devonshire was on the
train.
Immediately the man showed
great Interest and said: "No! Is ho?"
"I think he is not," answered Ste
vens. "I only asked if you knew
he was."
The farmer said nothing, but con
tinued his walk on the platform. As
he came opposite the window again
he remarked that their town had
been experiencing some excitement.
"What's tho matter?" asked
Stevens.
"The authorities wouldn't let some
folks bury a woman," replied the
farmer.
"What was the reason for refus
ing?" "She wasn't dead," was tho laconic
reply. .
And then he strolled aay, leav
ing young Stevens biting his lip.

and falling of tho head, arms and

down to sleep. Careful studies havo
shown that it almost invariably oc
curs during tho first forty-five sec

enough to suggest tho Idea of falling
to tho brain. It "does tho rest" and
provides out of its swarming store

flights of stairs, giddy maElhoads and
other scenic effects. If the impres

you "striko bottom" with a doliclous

pose just such as your tired body is
getting from its "downy couch."

Tho dream, and wo can all recall
its mortifying vlvldnosa, is usually

DREAMS
Some of our common dreams seem
to be directly traceable. Slipping
down of the blankets is followed by
dreams of Arctic relief expeditions
or falling into snowdrifts. A gas
distended stomach, pushing up the
diaphragm and compressing the
lungs, produces dreams of "some
thing sitting on your chest," or dra
matic struggles against other forms
of suffocation. '
