Early Steamboat Navigation on the
Missouri River" includes this story:
Captain La Barge was a pilot and
Indian trader for fifty eventful years.
and on one of his trips up the river he
had a party Of Engllshmen aboard.
They had a map and applied them
selves industriously to the business of
identifying the various places on it
with those along their route They
were in the pilot house good deal. and
one of them was inclined to instruct in
the geography of the country the vet
eran pilot, who had spent all his life on
or near the river.
What place is this that we are ap-
preaching, Mr.. Pilot?' he asked.
"St. Charles. SIR" La Barge replied
You are mistaken, sir. According to
the map, it is -"
La Barge made no reply. He stopped
as usual at ST. Charles and then went
his way. Presently they came to an
other village.

THE MONA TREATMENT.

The discovery of Mi-o-na, the remark
able flesh forming food that builds up
good, healthy, solid flesh and makes
thianess and scrawniness a thing of the
past, has revolutionized medical practice
in certain lines
Its power to Do all that is claimed for
it was 80 clearly proven to f, ". Buck
nam that he has sold Mi-o-na with the
understanding that if it fails the pur-
chase price was to be refunded
r. W. Buchanan certainly exhibited
courage in taking up this method of sell.
ing Mi-o-na, but the results have fully
proven his Judgment that the MILO na
treatment for stomach troubles, emacia-
ton, general weakness and run down
condition is he only effacious and reli-
able cure
Wi-o MA possesses healing and soothing
qualities that make ii especially valuable
/ in cases of chronic Indigestion and dys-
pepsia. Two or three tableCs taken each
day in connection with the regular food
prove 1t true flesh former.
All that many woman lacks to be
positively pretty is little more flesh on
her face TO look haggard or not fat is
not becoming The use of Mi-o-na will
cure this defect.
With every SOC box of Mi-o.na that +.
w. Bucknam sells he will give written
promise to refund the money If it does
not give an increa. in flesh and restore
strength. What trifling cost this is If
it makes you well; if it fails, the ex-
pense Ia absolutely nothing.
