EXPRESSIVE NAME
FOR INDIGESTION
Hood & Martin Have Simple Remedy
That IN Guaranteed to
Cure the Trouble

No one word better expresses the
stomach or indigestion that mis-
cry" The stomach is weak and can
not digest the food, so that there is
no appetite, there are pains and grip
ing in the stomach and bowels, the
head and back ache, and the misery
goes to every organ.
Strengthen the stomach and the
digestive system by the use of Mi-o-
ma. This is the only stomach remedy
konwn that gives relief by strength
ening the stomach and digestive or
gans. 1t is this principle that makes
it certain cure for indigestion.
Other medicines may give temporary
relief by helping digest the food, but
they do not strengthen the stomach
and that organ gets weaker and
weaker all the time.
Hood & Martin, the liberal retail
druggists, have so much confidence
in this remarkable remedy that they
guarantee a cure, or the money will
be refunded. Mi-o-na costs but so
cents box. Ask to see the strong
guarantee given with every box
Mona 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-o-na used before
eating strengthens the stomach
soOthes and heals all irritation and
inflammation, 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.

Rico Sc ha perdido el amor patrio, la
veroIenza y el sentido moral; que el
servilisrno de un pufisdo de mercena
rios que Sc benefcian con la sltuacion
actual, Sc ha extendido todas nues
tras esferas sociales.
ST Puerto Rico esta satisfecho con la
actual forma de Gobierno. entonces
ese pueblo Sc merece tai gobierno y Ia
.existencia de Asociaciones patrioiicas
es inneoesaria.
Entretanto, la Isla continhs gober-
nada per ,seis americanos sin m As in-
teres en- el porvenir de aquella terra
infortunada, que el interes que des
pierta en todo hombre TN buen sueldo
y un alto puesto: Ell cafe contin1a sin
un mercado que pague su verdadero
precio; y los puertorriquefios continuan
siendo seres 1ndefinidos, sin una ciu =
dadania y sin una constitution.
|. ST el pueblo de Puerto Rico hubieSe
respondido los llamamientos que
hasta ahora Sc han perdido en- el vac{o,
tai vez Puerto Rico tepdrfa hoy un
Gobierno verdaderamente Americana,
un mercado para sus frutos, una ciu-
dadania y una constitution para sns
hijos: estos no serian despreciados
pues no puede serlo Ell hombre que
conoce Sus'derechos los defiende.
Ell Directorio ha cumplido con su
deber, y espera que el nuevo Directo-
rio contin 1e la lucha en- defensa de la
Isla, que tanto necesita del amor de
sus hijos. -
La Liga debe continuar y continua-
ra. Y sera siempre: una protesta vi
viente, ana muestra de que adn que
dan puertorriquefios que sienten las
desgracias de su tierra. que no acep-
tan incondic;onalmente la situs ci6n
actual y que luchan y lucharan ince-
sautemenie C ea defensa de los derechos
y libertades de su pueblo. y
La existencia de la Liga sera una
prueba para el pueblo Americana, de
que en- Puerto Rico, donde ondea su
bandera. existe algo anormal, Sc CO.
meteu injusticias, Sc viola la Constitu-
ci6n, Sc pisotean los derechos del hom:
brs y Sc insulta a TN pueblo debil.
Vel dia que Puerto Rico despierte
y Sc dispa nga 4 defender sus derechos,
esgrilniendo las armas de la justicia,
siempre vencedoraS, encontrara en- la
Liga, que espera ansiosa ese desper
tar, ell apoyo y protection que tantas
veCes le ha ofrecido.
