Mrs. Llebe and family wish to thank all friends and acquaintances for the kind ness and attention shown in their bereave ment THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL Few People Know How Useful It Is In Preserving Health and Beauty. Nearly everybody knows that charcoal 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 im purities always present in the 6tomach and intestines and carries them out of tho system. Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating onions 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 i It absorbs the Injurious gases which col lect In the stomach and bowels; it disin fects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh. AH druggists sell charcoal In one form or another, but probably the best char coal and the most for the money is In Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered Willow Charcoal anti other harmless antiseptics in tablet form, or rather in the form of large pleasant-tasting lozenges, the char coal being mixed with honey. The dally use of these lozenges will soon tell 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 con trary, great benefit A Buffalo physician. In speaking of the benefits - of charcoal, says: "I advise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all pati ents suffering from gas in stomach and bowels, and to clear tho complexion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; I also believe the liver is greatly benefited by the dally use of them; they cost but 25 cents a box at drug stores, and although in some sense a patent preparation, yet I believe I get more and better charcoal in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges than in any of the ordinary charcoal tablets."

A daring bank robbery was committed In tho heart of the downtown district at 12:30 o'clock thl3 afternoon, when three men wearing slouch hats entered the Peoria National "Bank' and while two of the men covered F. A. Bracken with revolvers, the third reached through the teller's window and, seizing about 5500 in currency and silver, made his escape. The three men dashed out of the build ing after threatening those In the bank and leaping Into the buggy standing near, lashed the horses Into a run. The streets were crowded at the time, and a large crowd was Immediately In pursuit of the men. Their flight was stopped by a crush of drays In the wholesale district, and they were stopped for a moment by the crowd. A display of revolvers frightened the crowd back, and the robbers turned- and fled In another direction. A big crowd took up the chase, lncluuing several auto mobiles, whose owners managed to keep In sight of the men. The men traveled rapidly and gained on the crowd. They drove to the river bank, where they abandoned their rig and soon disappeared. WHERE TO DENE.
