Special to The Journal
Winnipeg, Man., Jan. 2O.-Figures

Of males being % years and females FL.
The fever was not prevalent in the
early months of the year, but in Au-
gust became epidemic, reaching its
worst stage in November and hardly
lessening its grip in December. The
typhoid death rate here is extremely va

epidemics, and has been on the decrease
| in late years.. ---@ 4.

A DANGEROUS HABIT.
GIadstOne'S Physician Gives Warning
Against Growing American
Custom.

The growing habit amongst
Americans of taking a mint
tablet or some other so called
digestive after eating a hearty
meal, is something that Sir An
drew Clarke, Mr.. Gladstope's
physician advises strongly
against, saying. 1T is abso-
lutely dangerous to take into
the stomach remedies which are
popularity supposed to aid in
the digestion of food"
There is nothing known to
the science of medicine that can
perform the work of the human
stomach. Drugs DO not and
cannot digest the food. They
simply decompose it. What can
be more revolving or disgusting
than the thought of takin e
something into the stomach
that is going to turn the good
food you have eaten into a
mass of corruption.
The only way to overcome in
digestion and it's evil effects is
to remove all irritation, conges-
ton and inflammation from the
stomach, liver and intestines,
and Mona is the only agent
known that will do this.
When a Mona tablet is tax
en- before each meal every
trace of irritation and inflama.
ton is removed from the stom.
ach and digestive system, and
those organs will extract from
the food all that goes to make
good, rich blood, firm muscle,
steady nerves and sound
healthy body. If you suffer
with headaches, Indigestion,

eyes, vertigo, or dizziness, pal.
