M-o-na is a remarkable preparation
that tones up the digestive organs and
quickly gives perfect health and sire myth.
1t will cure the worst case of indigestion
or the depressed irritated state that
afllicts nearly every one who has stomach
trouble. 1t is not mere digestive like
the pepsin tablets, but is a remedy that
absolutely and positively cures dyspepsia
and restores perfect health to the diges-
tive system.
w. II. Sheldon can tell you of many
of his customers who recommend Mona
because it cured them. Better than all
testimonials, though, is the guarantee
under which Mona is sold. 1t is a
plain, positive statement that if this
remedy does not relieve you of indi-
geston it will cost you absolutely
nothing.

Mr.. Cheney is remarkably strong and

Only Way to Cure Catarrh is by Breathing
Hyomei.
Ask any physician if catarrh is a
blood disease and he will tell you that
it is a diseased condition of the mu-
cous membrane and that it cannot be
cured by blood purifiers, pills tablets,
or other forms of stomach dosing, The
|only sensible and scientific way of cur
ing catarrh is by the use of Hyomei.
Breathed for few minutes, four or
five times a day, through a hard rub
Der inhaler that is so small that it can
be carried in the vest pocket, Hyomei
will absolutely destroy all catarrhal
|germs and cure the disease. Catarrh
can never exist where Hyomei is used
1t has a two-fold action destroying the
disease germs in the air passages and
lungs, and soothing and healing the
inhamed mucous membrane.
w. II. Sheldon, one of the most re-
liable firms in Middlebury is giving his
personal guarantee with every package
of Hyomei he sells, that it will effect a
a cure OF he will return the money. He
has had scores of reports of remarkable
cures of both acute and chronic cases
of catarrh by Hyomei.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs

of Hyomei and dropper. The inhaler
will last lifetime; and additional bot
ties of Hyomei can be obtained for

Round Trip Passes For Stock
Shippers.

The announcement OF the Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul Railroad that
it will issue return transportation to
live stock shippers to all points on
its system from which shipments
originate, is due to legislation on
the subject by the State of Iowa.
Western railroads last year adopted
an order, which went into effect jan
uary 1, abolishing the system OF Civ
ing return transportation TO stock
shippers. This action was denounc-
ed by live stock organizations
throughout the country. The Chi.
cago. Milwaukee 4 st. Paul was the
first to comply with the law, and
doing 80, it cut loose from the agree
ment entered into January l. All
the other Western roads have agreed
to return to the old system OF giving
return transportation to all live
stock shippers"

The St. Louis Star. q staunch R

The st. Louis Star, a staunch Re-
publican paper, reads the Globe
Democrat the following lecture:
"Does not the Globe. Democrat
know that Folk stands 90 chances
out OF 100 OF being elected, and that,
too, by the votes of Republicans as
we'll as Democrats? Does it not fur
Their know that the most available
Republican candidate for the govern
orship cannot be used, because he
won't run against Folk? Advice
about a candidate by those who are
planning to beat him has a place in q
daily paper, PERHAPS, but it is in the
comic column and not in the edito-
rails"
The facts thus stated by the Star
that "Mr. Folk stands 80 chances
out Of 100 being elected, and that,
Too, by votes Of Republicans as we'll
as Democrats" must be worm wood
and gaul to such tight-laced Repub-
licans as our friend Mr.. Funk OF the

RUSSIAN WARSHIpS
REPORTED GUT OFF
FROM VLADIVOSTOK
General Kuropatkin Preparing
for Desperate Fight at Lao

Concentrating.

London, May 10.-The Daily Tele.
graphs Seoul correspondent says:
1t is believed here that "a portion Of
the Russian Vladivostok fleet has
been successfully shut out and now
in the Sea Of Japan trying to evade
the Japanese.
st, Petersburg, May 9.-That the
Russians are preparing for a desper-
ate fight at Lao Yang or Haicheng
seems certain from the meager dis
patches received here since the an
nouncement that the Japanese have
occupied Fung- Wang-Cheng.
The abandonment OF Nichwang Is
practically complete, though it is
stated that a sufficient Russian force
will be lett there to prevent any raid
ing by bandits, as feared by the
inhabitants. The mines in the har.
Dor there ore still connected with
the dynamo by which they can be
exploded and no effort has been made
to remove them.
General Kuropatkin is busy with
the concentration OF his troops, still
making headquarters at Liao-Yang
while Viceroy Alexieff has transferred
his headquarters to Hardin. Mill
tary experts here believe that unless
the Japanese deliver their attack
with unexpected strength and quick
ness kuropatkin may soon be able
to take the offensive.
In spite OF official assurances that
Port Arthur is well provisioned, fears
are ielt that this may not be correct.

iect that there are provisions there
Tor 1000 men for three months only.

kin's army. The mobilization OF
four more army corps along the
Volga will take place in July or
August, II not earlier.
Among the numerous rumors in
circulation here is one that the
cruiser Burik has been destroyed.
The story is discredited by officials.
The Cossacks seen in Korea and
Eastern Manchuria, it is stated, are
simply scouts trying to keep General
Kuropatkin informed OF the enemy's
movements.

PUT FOLK MEN on GUARD.

OF the four candidates running for
Governor, we have always been for
Mr.. Folk. His position upon sllpub-
lie questions is one In favor of clean
government. He has the moral cour-
age to do what is right and always
says what ought to be done. The
positive action of the man has en-
desred him to the people. When our
convention Is held a straight Folk
delegation should be named. Mr.. Folk
wants and should have his friends
from this county. By friends we
mean those who are for him from
principle and not those who are for
him now for position. Those should
not be considered. Let the Folk msn
select Folk delegates who are strong
enough in his interest to comply with
his wishes as to the remainder OF the
ticket. As the head OF the ticket, Mr..
Folk will be held responsible for the
success or failure of the administra.
tion. Name u delegation that is for
Folk and let them work wholly to his
interests and desires. We are for Mr.,
Folk over and above all other candi-
dates aud are willing to be guided by
his Judgment as to the personnel Of
the ticket, irrespective Of our person
al friendships. Mr.. Folk has made a
successful fight and ought not to be
