ml-O-na, the Dyspepsia Remedy, has
Cured Hundreds of w. R. East
mans Customers
One of the greatest successes in the
sale of a medicine has been achieved
by Mi-o-na, the dyspepsia remedy,
and its sale is increasing so rapidly
that w. B. Eastman, the popular drug
gist, has hard work to keep stock on
hand.
It is very popular with well known
bankers, ministers, lawyers and Others
whose business or profession keeps
them closely confined, while those
who have brought on indigestion
through irregular eating, worry or
other causes, have found a cure in this
reliable remedy.
Mona is in the form of small tablets
andfs sold in metal box especially
designed for convenience in carrying the
medicine In the pocket or purse. It is
pleasant to take; costs but SOC, gives
quick relief and makes lasting cures.
This remedy has been SO uniformly
successful and made so many remarka Bile
cures that W. B. Eastman will in future
sell Mi-o-na under a positive guarantee
to refund the money if it should not cure
No other dyspepsia medicine ever had
large enough percentage of cure so that
it could be sold in this manner. A
guarantee like this speaks volumes for
the merit OF the remedy.
There is no time like the present to do
a thing that ought to be done. If any
one has dyspepsia, today is the best time
to begin curing 1t.

woman may be permanently
cured Of monthly pains by TAX
ing Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound.
"YoUNa WoMEN:-I had frequent
headaches of a severe nature, dark
spots before my eyes, and at my men
strua1 periods suffered untold agony.
A member of the lodge advised me to
try Lydia e. Pinkham'S Vege-
table Compound, but I only scorned
good advice and felt that my case was
hopeless, but she kept at me until ]
bought a bottle and started taking
it. I soon had the best reason in the
world to change my opinion of the
medicine, as each day my health i'm
proved, and finally was entirely with
out pain at my menstruation periods.

If there is anything about your
case about which you would
like special advice, write freely
to Mrs. Pinkham. She will hold
your letter in strict confidence.
She can surely help you, for no

hundreds of thousands of women

The Catholic School Exercises.

The children of st. Pauls parochial
school celebrated the completion of the
school year on Wednesday by giving a
fine program at the opera house. A
large audience was present.
The opening number was The Hunt
er's Call, chorus, Veazle, by the pupils
This was followed by a trio by nine
young ladies on three pianos, ST JEtais
Roi, Micheuz. The Charge of the Light
Brigade was recited by Steven Farrell
and appropriately shown in pantomime
by party of white clad sailors, armed
with swords.
A pretty little playlet, Carries Quar-
ter, was cleverly presented by fifteen
girls. Irene Byrnes was Carrie and
Margaret Barthel and Irene Moers the
good fairies.
The overture from William Tell by
Rossini, was given in the form of a
piano duet by Misses Helen Green and
Geneva Schaefer. A Topsy Turvy drill
was comical feature.
Misses Anna McCarty and Nellie
Titcomb sang duet, 'Silent Night,
after which Tipaldi's Orchestra Echoes
was rendered by Michael Byrnes and
John Murphy, violins; Marie Heiss,
mandolin and Miss Greene, piano. A
dude drill bya dozen small boys whose
attire included tall hats and long coats
was mirth provoking performance.
Another piano triple trio was execut-
ed by eight girls and one small boy,
Master Frank Phillips.
Fir. Comerford followed with a brief
address upon Christian Education. He
explained why Catholics are taxed for
the support of public schools and also fol
the maintenance of parochial schools.
1t because education without the
softening and uplifting influences of re-
ligion is to be feared and deplored. A
person who does not realize with every
breath he draws that God is through al
and behind all is not fulfilling his des
tiny or doing the good of which he il
capable in the world
FIR. p. j. Slane, who introduced the
speakers of the evening, congratulated
sisters and the scholars upon the progress
made in the school last year and thanked
the audience for its presence.

Common Council.

At the council meeting on Monday
evening, the council, by vote of three
to six, refused to grant the Merchants
Delivery Company permission to erect q
barn at the corner of Comstock and
Water streets. AS the building will be
sheeted with iron and rooted with fire
proof material it comes within the
charters definition of fire proof and can
be erected any way.
Eighty-five taxpayers asked for sur
face'drain and trunk sewer from Hick
ory street west on King to Washington,
to jeanette, to Mulberry, to point two
rods south of the south line of j. G.
Branch's, thence west to the Shiawassee
river over land belonging to F. Fl.
Gould. 1t was referred to the board of
works.
On complaint of Aid. Rigley, all the
claims and accounts certified to by City
Clerk Edwards were crossed off from
the list of bills allowed, as the clerk s
acknowledgment as notary public did
not show the date of expiration as
notary.
An ordinance reducing the fire de-
partment from 16 to 12 men, beside the
chief, was passed.
The old "disorderly" ordinance was
found to be illegal and ineffective. Aid.
BRANDED offered new one which was
passed and will be found in full in, the
official proceedings. 1t provides among
other things, for a punishment for the
shooting even of air guns in the city
of similar penalty for man who will
not support his wife or family. The
youths who congregate about church
doors on Sunday evenings are disorder
ly persons, according to the ordinance
and can be illegally arrested and punish
ed. Under the old ordinance and the
state law, men found in disorderly
houses during a police raid cannot b,
punished; under the new ordinance JUS
passed, which is modelled upon th'
Grand Rapids ordinance-the latter ha
been declared constitutional by the su
preme court--they can be punished
The penalty is $50 or go days.

down on christianity. The strength OF
the government rests on the homes. The
foundations of christian citizenship be-

Christianity will save most. If chris

one strong, courageous christian man is

Burton Farmers Club,

The Burton Farmers club met Thurs
day June End at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. M. L. Peterson where all We're
royalty entertained. The president,
Mrs Potter, called the meeting to order.
The chaplain, M. L. Randall. then con-
ducted the devotional exercises.
The first question for the day on the
program was, Should boys and girls
learn trade in school. Mrs. CARRIER
read an excellent paper on the question
she said that manual training would be
very good if practical Mr.. Love and
Miss Guilford thought that country boys
and girls received plenty of manual
training at home and that it was neith-
er necessary or practical in the common
schools Mr.. Peterson read an article
on the, Growth, use and worth of GIN
seng.
Miss Blanche Shepard read an inter
esting paper describing the lives and
habits of the people who live where it
is six months day and six months night.
Mrs Peterson then summoned us to
the dining room where sumptous din
ner awaited, to which all did ample
Justice; during the dinner hour we were
entertained with music from the phono-
graph.
After the meeting was again called
to order in the afternoon other ques-
tions of interest to the club were discuss
ed. The secretary read letters from
our former members Mr. and Mrs. Chas.
Woodin and Mrs. Devendorf reminding
us that they had not forgotten the many
pleasant days they had spent with the
club. Mrs Randall and Miss Guilford
each gave select reading.
The gentlemen's topic, Should the
taxpayers of this state be obliged to help
support the large institutions of learn
ing when the students who attend them
cannot be restrained from violating the
laws of both the state and school," was
then discussed by Mr.. Hammond. Love
and others, all agreed that the large
schools were becoming more expensive
each year and that some method should
be devised by which the unruly ones
could be restrained.
The ladies topic, 1.-The best room in
the house." was then taken up. Mrs.
r. G. Shepard read an excellent paper
on the best room as it was in the days
of our grandmothers when it was shut
up for the most of the time, being opens
ed on state occasions only but now times
are changed and the best room of to-day
! should be none too good to be used each
day by all members of the family Mrs.
Hammond thought that the dining room
in the farm house should be made the
pleasantest room as there was where the
family live mostly.
The state subject was then discussed
! by the gentlemen. The meeting then
adjourned to meet with Mr.. and Mrs
M. L Randall in July.

The majority of the students, as the
vote shows, felt that if these cOndi-
lions were actual, that it would be
poor policy to change the present ad-
ministration of athletics at the college.
The vote is not a reflection upon any
one, but rather a determined stand to
keep the athletic affairs of the college
out of fights. and continue them on the
safe plan of the past two years
Like any other college fight this
one will probably wear off shortly, and
will not have any serious effects in
the way of loss of good players. Mehl
is one of the best athletes ever turned
out in the state, and regardless of to-
days election, he will be back on the
team next year. He has indicated this
intention to his friends. If ever an OPP
portunity comes for his election to the
presidency or other office of honor
within the control of the athletic as
ISOLATION, it ought to be done, for he
certainly deserves much from the fol-
lowers of the blue. He has done as
much as any man, and more than
many to give Washburn its magnih-
cent athletic record.
