EXPRESSIVE NAME FOR INDIGESTION
r. G. Bryan Has Simple Remedy that
is Guaranteed to Cure the Trouble.

is Guaranteed to Cure the Trouble.
No one word better expresses the con-
dItion OF the sufferer from weak stomach
or indigestion than "misery." The stom-
ach is weak and cannot digest the food,
so that there is no appetite, there are
pains and gripping in the stomach and
bowels, the head and back ache, and the
misery goes to every organ.
Strengthen the stomach and the diges-
tive system by the use OF Mi-o-na. This
is the only stomach remedy known that
gives relief by strengthening the stomach
and digestive organs. II is this principle
that makes 1t certain cure for indiges-
ton. Other medicines may give tempo
rary relief by helping digest the food, but
they do not strengthen the stomach, and
that organ gets weaker and weaker all the
time.
f. E. Bryan, the reliable retail druggist,
has so much confidence IN this remark
able remedy that he guarantees cure, or
hemoney will be refunded. Mi-o-na cost
but so cents box. Ask to see the strong
guarantee given with every box.
Mi.o-na is in tablet form and should be
taken before each meal. Other remedies
for stomach troubles and indigestion are
taken after the meal, and decompose the
good food you eat, but Mi-c-na used be-
fore eating strengthens the stomach,
soothes and heals all irritation and infiam-
nation, enriches the blood and puts the
stomach in such a healthy condition that
II will take care OF the food itself and
there will be no pain and suffering. 1913

CITY WILL NOT ALLOW
 SALOON TO BE OPENED

the miscellaneous committee, which recommended the saloon to the council, was at a loss to understand when and how the request was granted without his knowing something about 1t. He was at the committee meeting last Wednes- day afternoon and voted on everything that came up. but he could not recall favoring the reopening of saloon at Mrs Keenan's old stand. He was not positive whether or not he voted on the names of Zimmer and Hart but de- clared he would not have associated them with Mrs. Keenan had some alder man asked that a permit be allowed them to open a saloon. After looking up the minutes of the committee meeting he came to the conclusion that he must have favored some alderman by voting for the permit, not knowing the location. h. vestigaton shows that there was no street and number given on the records.
 Alderman ONeill and Forney called to see the Mayor yesterday anent the mat ter. They are members of the miscella- neous commitete and were present at the last meeting. MT. Forney told the Mayor he voted for the saloon when the petition was read because he had been asked to do so by an alderman. MT. Neill made practically the same state ment. Alderman Gray was the only other member of the committee who was pres ent and he is away from the city.
 The Mayor has come to the conclusion that it was simply an oversight in not connecting the location with the place just closed and will insist that the place remain closed.

Trimmer and Hart will not be allowed to operate saloon at e3l Avenue B, the old stand of Mrs Kate Keenan, if Mayor Ward can prevent it. Both of the saloon men called on the Mayor yesterday to assure him that they bought out the place in good faith and that Mrs. Keenan had severed all connections with it. They also said they had just given ord- CTS for new stock of cigars. The Mayor assured the men that the money paid for the saloon would be refunded and that they could countermand any ord CTS given for additional stock. He said that council had ordered the place closed and that in some mysterious way 1t was opened while he was out of the city.
 There were no new developments yes- terday in the mystery which was sprung by an anonymous letter received by the Mayor Monday afternoon. The letter was to the effect that council had given permission for Trimmer and Hart to open Mrs. Keenans old stand. which was closed because she persisted in violating the Sun day law. MT. Ward was at a loss to understand this as it was closed just be- fore he went away, more than two weeks ago. As soon as he had it closed again Monday he began an investigation to find out why it was opened.

"The Office Boy"

"The Office Boy a musical comedy favorite of last season in which Frank Daniels added to his laurels. came back to the Jefferson theatre last night with Frank Deshon in the leading role MT Deshon Is not unknown to Birmingham theatregoers. He is remembered for his successful appearance here last season in Miss Bob White" This year MT. De- shon has an exactng part but he acauts himself in manner that must add to his reputation as a comedian.
 "The Office Boy" is too familiar for extended criticism. As musical comedy it Is a trfe too "talky" and more ac- tivity on the part of the chorus would help matters wonderfully, but the piece already has an established reputation. The performance last night was notable for the numerical strength of the company and the ensemble singing "The Office Boy is especially to be commended for its tuneful music. All the songs arc pleasing and have a quality that makes for popularity.
 The support given MT. Deshon last night was adequate. Miss Marie Barry as prima donna has an excellent voice and her song numbers were rendered in capital style. Miss Barry Is not only pretty and graceful but Is possessed of great personal magnetism. She is one of the most winning musical comedy prima donnas who has been seen here recently.
 "The Office Boy" will be repeated at a matinee ths afternoon and another per formanee will be given tonight.

GRANTS FRANCHISE TO ELECTRIC ROAD
BOARD OF REVENUE GIVES J. M. DEWBERRY AND ASSOCIATES RIGHT TO USE CERTAIN coUN- TY ROADS FOR TRACK.

| The board of revenue of Jefferson coun-
 ty on yesterday granted to J. M. Dew , berry and associates a franchise to oper-
 ate an electric railroad over the county roads leading from the city limits of Bir-
 mingham through Avondale, Woodlawn,
 East Lake and Huffman to the St. Clair
 county line.
 This Is an addition to a similar fran chise granted to the same men some
 weeks ago to operate an electric line over the county roads west from the city limits of Birmingham through Pratt
 City, Ensley and Bessemer to the Tusca- loosa county line. Last week the city
 council of Tuscaloosa granted similar franchise to these men to oper- ate over the streets of Tuscaloosa It is claimed by Mr. Dewberry that the proposed line is to be a double track, heavy rail, electric railroad, designed pri-
 mariy for heavy freight traffic from the Birmingham district to some point on the Warrior river. He said that this 1 line Is to begin at some point north or east of Birmingham-probably Gadsden, and extend through this district and the cities
 named to the Warrior river at Tusca- I loosa
 l Mr. Dewberry further said that the pro- | ject Is intended to give this district the advantages of river transportation and | low freight rates.
 Tt is the purpose of the promoters of l this road to construct and operate a line of boats and barges on the Warrior river connecting with the electric rail- road at Tuscaloosa and with ocean going vessels in the gulf" continued MT. Dew l berry.
 We are meeting with encouragement | all along the line and it is expected thai 1 work will begin in the early spring.
 "A feature of the rood is that Is has | been projected without reference to cities, 1 towns or passenger travel rut with spe- cial reference to the handling of freight. ] The cities and towns along the route ] will be asked for franchises and that proper attention will be paid to urban and 1 interurban passenger traffic.
