REAL SENSIBLE IDEA.
T. II. Thomas Calls Plan of Selling MI-O-nR
the Flesh Forming Food the Only
Fair One.

L. II. Thomas, the reliable drug
! gist, has been in the drug business
long enough to have his own opinion
as to the best way of selling medi-
| cines. He says the plan adopted for
Mi-o-na, the wonderful flesh-forming
food and cure for dyspepsia, is the
fairest he has ever heard of.
He does not believe that medicine
the user some good, and Mona is
sold under a positive guarantee to
refund the money unless it builds up
good solid flesh and cures dyspepsia
and all stomach troubles.
Mi-o-na is not simply food digest
err; it mingles with the food and helps
it to assimilate, SO as to nourish and
build up good, healthy flesh. 1t
strengthens the digestive organs and
puts them in normal condition and
gives ruddy, glowing. vigorous health.
A change for the better in the gen
eral health will be seen from the first
few doses of Afi-o-na and an increase
of weight will be noticed after it has
been used for week or 10 days.
Those who take these health-giving
tablets will soon have the power to
eat anything at any time and suffer
no distress afterwards.
Mona is the only preparation of
the kind upon the market, that is sold
under signed guarantee from one of
the most reputable concerns in Rock
Island. to refund the money if it does
not give satisfaction. Il. IT. Thomas
takes all the risk when Mi-okna is
used. This is the strongest testimony
that can be offered to the real value
of Mona.

Another fire in the alley bounded by
Ripley and Scott and Third and
Fourth streets was discovered at 1888
Monday afternoon, in the rear of 4O6
West Third street, which is an annex
to the John Schuett grocery and
crockery store. 1t was still alarm
which brought out the department
and Hose One and Two responded.
The loss was nominal. The origin of
the fire is mysterious. Saturday af-
ternoon a blaze was discovered in the
rear of the Walther Manufacturing
company's plant, several doors to the
west, which was equally mysterious
in its origin. Both were shed fires
and might have proven ugly TO handle

and back of her disappearance there
! is Il story of romance. Miss Losie, it
seems, has been receiving the atten-
tiOns of Frank Wadsworth. y years OF
age, an employee of Deere & Co. The
young people wished to be married
next October, but the father seriously

troubles, ran from the house. attireC

| followed. but was unable to find her

The conference between the saloon
men and gamblers and Rev. Giglingr
er, who has promised to begin war
of reform if the city authorities will
not take the matter up, did not lead
TO settlement of the question at issue
and other conferences are likely. The
men of the green cloth endeavored to
convince the minister that there is
good in gambling when it is rightly
conducted, and held that it is better
to have it done openly than to have
it carried on in secret. Rev. Giglinger,
however, has made no movement to-
ward Il compromise and it is thought
likely that he will sooner or later be-
gin action.

Negro Collector At Charleston Cannot
Draw Any Money Until Confirmed.
WASHINGTON. May s.-The Comptroller
of the Treasury has decided that under
a str 1t construction Of the law no salary,
DR.. w. Fl. Crunn, the n. .,ro who was ap-
pointed Collector Of Customs at Charles
ton. s. c.. but whose nomination repeatedly
failed Of confirmation by the Senate. An
official letter to that effect has been ad.
dressed to DR.. Crum. his attention being
called to Section 1901 Of the Revised Statutes,
which reads:
"No money shall be paid from the Treas
ury as salary to any person appointed
during the recess Of the Senate to All a
vacancy in any existing office, II the vacancy
existed while the Senate was in session
and is by law required to be filed by and
with the advice and consent Of the Senate,
until such appointment has been confirmed
by the Senate"
The vacancy in the Charleston colleoto
ship began last September. In December
the President sent Or. Crums name to the
Senate. but the Senate failed to confirm
it,. The nomination was again sent to the
extra session OF the Senate and again failed
to be confirmed. The Comptroller OF the
Treasury holds that the vacancy existed
during the session Of Congress- although,
technically speaking. it existed prior to the
assembling Of Congress.
Had the President appointed Crum or
any other candidate at the time the vacancy
occurred, the Comptroller holds that the
salary. and fees attaching to the Office could
have been paid, as this would have been
filing a vacancy while the Senate was
not In session.
There is no appeal from the de cision
Of the Comptroller OF the Treasury in ques-
oions affecting the pay accounts OF Federal
tfficers,
