privileges to any individuals or in
terests; and whereas, a project is now
being actively promoted to establish
a great centralized banking institu

vival of a- dangerous proposition,
wbich once before in our country's
history raised its threatening head,
but which danger was averted by the
veto of a brave president; therefore,
be it resolved, by the National
Grange in forty-third annual session
assembled, and representing 1,000,
000 of conservative, liberty-laving
people, that we are unalterably op
posed to any legislation by congress

A Sommerville, N. J., dispatch
carried by the Associated Press says:
"Victim of a hypnotic experiment,.
Robert Simpson is dead and Prof.
Arthur Everton of Newark, the hyp

of collapse today. Simpson was
hypnotized at a demonstration in a
theatre here last night. After plac

hypnotist performed numerous tests
in the presence of the audience to
show .the thoroughness of his work.
When the time came to end tho tests,
however, Prof. Bverton found that
his work, to all appearances, had
been too thorough. The subject
could not be revived. In a panic the
hypnotist called upon physicians who
after laboring a long time over Simp

withstanding this decision, the man
was taken to a hospital where efforts
were made to revive him. No re

Bverton collapsed when he realized
the plight he was in. Tho author

Wonderful Absorbing
Power of Charcoal
One Hundred Times Its Own Volumo
, In Gases Rapidly Absorbed By It
As a reliable remedy for stomach
gases and intestinal flatulence, char
coal is without a peer. More than
a century ago a French physician
discovered the marvelous absorbing
powers possessed by charcoal, and ho
experimented with it very extensive
ly until he finally ascertained that
charcoal made from wiliow wood pos
sessed far more powerful and valu
able medicinal properties than that
made from any other wood..
Charcoal is a black, shining, brit
tle, porous, inodorous substance, in
soluble in water. It possesses to a
wonderful degree the remarkable
property of absorbing many times its
own bulk in any and all gases, con
densing and retaining .them within
itself. In addition to this, charcoal
is a disinfectant and antiseptic, and
is used with great advantage in all
cases of stomach and intestinal de
rangement, constipation, diarrhoea,
dysentery, cholera morbus and true
cholera, and the toxins which these
conditions bring about in the ali
mentary system, are completely de
stroyed by Us Ude.
Dr. Belloc recommended it strong
ly in gastralgia, as it abates the pain,
nausea and vomiting from the func
tionally diseased stomach; while as a
remedy for obstinate constipation, Dr.
Daniel speaks of it in the highest
terms. It has the advantage over
other laxatives of acting mildly,
though efficiently, instead of drasti
cally, or harmfully.
Until the exclusive process by
which STUART'S CHARCOAL LOZ
ENGES, are made, was discovered,
people who suffered from stomach
troubles, flatulence and offensive
breath, were accustomed to use ordi
nary powdered charcoal, wnicn is ex
tremely disagreeable to the taste, and
many persons after trying it once,
could not be induced to resume using
Since the Stuart Company perfect
ed their process of combining pure
willow charcoal with sweet, palatable
honey, all objections to the use of
this powerful absorbent have been
removed, and thousands of persons
who were annoyed with stomach
gases, bad breath, rumbling noises in
the intestinal system, constipation,
diarrhoea, liver torpor, etc., have vol
untarily testified that not only do
they find Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges
extremely agreeable to the taste, and
all that could be desired in that re
spect, .but they also obtained com
plete relief from the above-mentioned
diseases, after many other
medicinal agents, previously tried,
had failed completely.
If you are suffering from any o
these annoying complaints, you can
not do better than to give this rem
edy a thorough trial, as relief from
such troubles is absolutely assureu.
But be sure you get the genuine, as
there are many imitations on the
market, inferior in quality, and alto
gether worthless.
