DYSPEPSIA REMEDY TIA
CURES.
TAAT
II Mi-O-na Does Not Cure Druggist
G0kay viii Refund Your
Money.

Among all The remedies in Druggist
Gokay's popular drug store there are
few that he is willing to sell on guar.
aztec to refund the money if it does
not cure. Mona, the famous dyspepsia
remedy, has made so many cures among
his customers that be says ''If this
remedy does not cGre you, bring back
the empty box and will cheerfully
return your money"
Anyone who has dyspepsia, indiges-
ton, headaches, dizzy feelings, or liv-
or troubles should take advantage Of
this chance to be made we'll without
any risk of spending their money to
no purpose. Mona will cure, vii
regulate the digestion, will enable any
one to eat what he wants. If it does
not do all this, the medicine will not
cost you cent.
Druggist Gokay has sold grea
many boxes OF HYomei in the last few
weeks and is yet to receive the first
complaint from any customer Such a
record is simply marvellous and speaks
volumes for the merit of the remedy.
1t is easy enough to fill a column
with the symptoms affecting those who
have dyspepsia but there is no need Of
describing their condition. What they
want is a cure. And they have it IN
Mona.
Do not suffer a day longer with dis
ordered digestion, If Mona cures you
it costs SOC box and il it does not,
you have Druggist Gokay's persona
guarantee to return your money.

Too many stores advertise daily. Special Sale
price Reductions" To the average reader these
words have grown synonymous with certain stores
that seem to mark the establishments as being run
upon purely philanthropc principles. The thought
full reader left to decide between two questions Is
John Smiths store with its wholesale price reductions
and weekly special sales open for the spiritual glory
of its owner are the attractions merely the wordy
bait to tempt grlible customers to visit the store2
In either case there is loss of confidence on the
publics part. However much bargain may appear
to be of true value deception must early OF late ar
rest the attention and shake the public faith in the
Firms honesty. 1t would seem the special sale from
being an exception has become the rule with many
advertisers. fall price reductions are represented
then the profits regular goods must be enormous
at such stores. is quite true that goods really
advertised at regular prices therefore the practice
still accuses for the so-called reduction being based
on purely fictitious values not reductions at ALL
Our ads are a straightforward presentation of the
facts about the goods, just you'll find them in the
store
The path through our store is strewn with good
values, look for them.

Occasional showers tonight and

The Hawesville Plaindesler thus
illustrates the beauties of the regis
trstion law passed by the last Demo-
cratic legislature, and effective for
the first time at the approaching cleo
ton: william Eggs, for instance,
will come to town and sell bis certifi-
cate to some Republican for IS. Then
Bill will go to the County clerk and
buy another certificate for fifty cents.
By this time Bill has swallowed q few
drinks aud is in q speculative mood.
Therefore he will sell his new certifi-
cate to a Democrat for $40. But fifty
cents will buy Bill another chance to
save his country and he will squsnder
the fee with the clerk. Then about
the time Bill gets ready to go home
he will go to the polls and vote as be
darn pleases.
