If food fails to assimilate it does not
properly nourish. a little food thor
oughly assimilated, is better than a
great mass of food that is undigested
and passes thru the system without
nourishing.
Mi-o-na. the wonderful flesh forming
food, helps the food to assimilate, and
soon shows by steady gain in weight
that it will restore health and flesh.
1t never fails to build up good, solid
flesh, regulate digestion. and give tone
and strength to the digestive organs,
so that dyspepsia is a thing OF the
past.
Read carefully the guarantee bond
above and you will see that Mcbride &
Will have so much faith in Mi-o-na
that they will sign a bond to refund
the money if Mi-o-na does not do all
that is claimed for 1t. Cut out this
bond and take 1t to their store today,
and when you buy a box of Mi-o-na ask
them to sign 1t. Let them take all the

W. j. BRYAN in TOWN
Former Democratic Presidential cand
date Stops in the City This Morning
for a Short Time Between Trains.

William j. Bryan, former presidential
candidate and editor of the Commoner
of Lincoln, Neb., spent half an hour in
the city this morning between trains
Rockford, Ill.,, where he goes to address
a chautauqua assembly. Owing to a
wreck and the burning Of bridge on
the Rock Island near Creston last night
he was compelled to come over the
Great Western thru this city. When
seen at the Great Western station this
morning, Mr.. Bryan said had not the
railroad delays interferred with his
plans he would have finished his chau-
tauqua engagements this week. He has
been delivering addresses before similar
gatherings for several weeks. When
asked as to the possible democratic
nominee for the presidency next year
he declined to venture a guess. When
questioned as to what he considered the
cause of the slump in railway and in
dustrial stocks ne gave as his opinion
that THE present financial system was
built for good and not bad weather."
He stated the "Commoner," of which
he is editor, is most prosperous. and
during the past two and one-half years
had reached circulation of $4,000.
Mr.. Bryan has not been in this city
since 1896, when he was campaigning
in Iowa. Since then he has taken on
considerable flesh, but looks the picture
of health. He left over the Great West
ern at about IL o'clock for Waterloo,
where he will take the Rock Island for
Rockford.

Ar,.tocraey of wealth Not Probable

Aristocracy of Wealth Not Probable.
Whatever the tendencies of wealthy
Americans OF the present day, it is ex-
tremely improbable that an aristocracy
of wealth should ever come into being.
1t has been seen that an aristocracy
depends chiefly upon two conditions
the continued possession and exercise
of power and the consequent unity of
aims and ideals.
The aristocraic body in England, for
instance. is self conscious; its members
are united by mutual understanding.
They acknowledge certain well recog-
nized laws of life and manners. They
depend upon each other to uphold these
laws. Individually, wealthy Ameri-
cans may be both self conscious and
self assertive, but collectively they are
antagonistic to one another. The &C
emulation Of wealth implies struggle,
and struggle does not bring forth the
kind Of qualities which make of the
gentle and stately men and women Of
vandyke's canvases one great family.

Jars and Jugs.
This ware is now on sale at all the
local groceries and may be had in all
sizes ranging from one pint to five gall
Ions in size. These jars are well adapt
ed for preserving, canning or picking
purposes. We recommend them for pre-
serving corn, tomatoes, fan fruits, etc.
The best results are obtained by pre-
pairing the fruit or vegetables in the
same manner as though cooked in open
kettle, but place it in the jars, seal
tightly, and fill boiler nearly to top of
jars which should be stood upright.
Cook the fruit or vegetables in this
manner from to 3 hours according to
size OF jars) allow the packages to
cool before putting away. Test the jars
by removing the bail. The cover should
adhere to top of jar II you have follow
ed instructions. The prices for jars are
slightly in advance of the glass pack
ages, but the many advantages of the
self sealing stone jar are apparent.

All Timekeepers Are Inaccurate.


The capacity Of watch for keeping
good time is very much governed by
its construction and its more or less
perfect finish. 1t cannot be expected
of the best horizontal watch that it
should always keep good time and even
less so Of the inferior make Of machine
made watches. The changes Of oil, the
variation in temperature, the diversity
of humidity Of atmosphere, all greatly
affect the going of a watch. Indeed, it
is only the most perfect finish which
neutralizes the adverse influences to
the greatest degree. AS a matter of
fact, no watch keeps perfectly correct
time, and even the best chronometers
used In observatories and on board
ships must be regulated according to
tables which are kept to fix the varia-
tons to which all watches are liable.

Breakfast on Coffee, Roll and Rush
for the Train.
The commuter who bolts down few
mouthfuls of food and hurries to catch
the train usually catches dyspepsia as
we'll.
The coffee and roll" road to i'll
health is not necessary for there is an
easy, pleasant way to get back to health
and shake off all the coffee diseases by
shifting to Postum Food Coffee. For a
number of years l was business wom-
an rising early and swallowing roll
and cup of coffee just in time to catch
train. A feeling of nausea or palpi-
tation and a continual dullness in the
eyes and head invariably followed my
coffee breakfasts until one day good
angel in the guise of a woman friend
babe me try Postum Food Coffee in
place of coffee.
always trying to be progressive in
my daily life l accepted the advice and
the result was l found Postum delic-
ious clear coffee colored beverage suited
to the stomach and satisfying to the
appetite. After using Postum faithfully
for a month l was surprised at the re-
suit In my health. All symptoms of dys-
pepsia or nervousness had disappeared
and because of this marked benefit l
reasoned that If such simple and mex
pensive remedy could prove such bene-
fit in my case why was 1T not my duty
to LET other sufferers know about Post
UNI. So 1 began to try to help my
friends and l have helped many to-
shake off sickness by recommending
Postum in place of coffee.
".rhere was one who was victim of
nervous dyspepsia and who craved cof-
fee to such an extent that he invariably
drank it in spite of medical advice not
to do SO and I could not persuade him
to change, so I got his wife to give
MIN Postum in the morning for few
days without saying anything to him
about 1t. The result was really wonder
full. He did not detect the change but
noticed that he got over his Indigestion
Then we told him the truth about 1t
and now he takes his Postum regularly
and is so far relieved of his nervous
ness that his physician predicts a
speedy cure. He likes the Postum just
as well as he used to love the coffee"
