A TRUE APPETIZER AND TONIC,

Mi.O Will Make You Feel Hungry and
Hearty, and Give Strength
and Vitality.
Ask any friend who looks
thin. pale, and out of health
how many meals he or she eats
a day, and the chances are that
the answer will be mot over
two, and 1 don't feel hungry
then" The plump, rosy, and
robust eat three square meals
daily, and their perfect health
is due to a strong stomach and
digestive system, as such a
system takes out of the food all
those elements that make pure
blood, and give nourishment
and vitality to the body
The one appetizer and tonic
that should be taken is Mi-o-na,
the only agent known that will
strengthen the stomach and di-
gestive system, and put them in
such perfect working order that
they will digest easily and nat
urally all the food that is eaten,
and send you to the table pos,
itively hungry for the next
meal.
Without a strong stomach di-
gestion will be poor, the blood
impure, and serious liver and
kidney troubles result, causing
headaches, backaches, spots
before the eyes, dizziness, sleep
lessness, nervousness, irritable
ness. d furred tongue and bad
breath, all of which can be
readily overcome by the use of
of Mi-o-na, Costing but SOC a
box), as it goes right to the
foundation of perfect health,
the stomach.
Scores of leading people in
this State. including editors,
ministers, bankers, and their
families, gladly testify to the
tonic, strengthening and health
giving effects of Mi O ma. Fur
thermore, Wood Bros, one of
the most reliable drug firms in
this section. sell Mi ma under
a guarantee to refund the mon
ey if it does not produce salts

A Kick About the Joe Trade.

A Quincy merchant is in re-

which is given verbatim and is
self-explanatory:
In order to get more bust
ness out of Missouri people all
the advertising you and others
are doing along the II. & st.
Joe railroad asking people to
come to Quincy will not fill the
bill. What you ought to do is
as follows: See the proper

arranged to have train No. 5,
which leaves Quincy about 5

fore the st. Louis fair, at Wood.

it will be a winner for you all

of people along the line say you
Quincy merchants ask us to
come over and buy from you,
but you don't care when we get
home. AS it is now anyone 60
ing to Quincy in the afternoon
cannot get back until next day
and must stay over night, that
is parties who live in the towns
mentioned. Now l know it will
pay you to take up this matter
and the proper thing to do in
my opinion is to get up a petit

Dor Mole.

Now this is a little early for
fish stories and it is neither a
snake story nor pipe dream,
for it is as told us by Gene
Maston and as witnessed by
Kirk Hicks. February 20, this
year, while moving to the farm
where now reside, Kirk Hicks
and / saw a mole sliding on the
side of a big snow drift and
apparently having more fun
than a schoolboy, but just as
soon as the pretty little fellow
saw US, he burrowed under the
drift and we lost sight of him. "
AS neither of the gentlemen had
been to town, the story is
straight.

CONGRESSMAN HUMPHREYS
HERE.

Congressman B, G. Humphreys, Of
the Delta district Of Mississippi, was
in Columbus for short while last
Sunday at the Gilmer. Mr.. Hum
phreys was en- route home from
Washington and was compelled to
Law oven here from Sunday evening
until Monday morning in order to
catch train west on the Southern.
His presence in Columbus was soon
noised about and many prominent
men called upon him while here.
1t was Mr.. Humphreys first visit
to Columbus. He said that he had
heard Bankhead and Gambler say SO
many good and complimentary
things about our little city, that he
was glad Of the opportunity to stop
off for awhile to see Columbus and
mingle with her people. He dis
cussed national politics for quite
awhile in a most intelligent and in
teresting manner and touched upon
several questions which are import
ant for our people especially.
Mr.. Humphreys is a member Of
the river and harbor committee and
an influential member Of that i'm
portant body at that. He was
thoroughly familiar with the Tom
bigbee river improvement project
and ventured the opinion this stream
would certainly come in for a share
Of the Federal improvements al
though the postponement of the riy-
er ond harbor bill at the next ses-
sion would prevent the appropria-
tion being made then. He paid a
high tribute to Colonel Bankhead |
and Mr.. Gambler, stating that both |
were indefatigable workers in behalf
of their people, and he stated further
that Mr.. Bankhead's retirement from
Congress just at the present time
would be a great misfortune for the
State and the South IN general.
Mr.. Humphreys is most engag-
ing man and he extended the radius
of his friends quite a great deal in
his short stay in this city. He left
Monday morning on the west bound
train for his home. Co
