GUARD AGAl INST GERMS
KEEP WELL BY STRENGTHENING
THL STOMACH IN SUMMER
WITH M1-O-NA

Everyone with weak digestion should
use Mi-o-na at this season and so
strengthen the stomach that disease
germs can have no effect whatever.
This remarkable RENE dy puts the whole
digestive system in so healthy, clean and
sweet a state that fermentation of the
food cannot exist, that any disease germs
which may enter the stomach will be
destroyed, and food will be so readily
assimilated that a rapid and healthy in
Grease in flesh will result.
Nervousness snd sleeplessness come
more often from a weak stomach than
from any other cause; headache, back.
ache and rheumatic pains are directly
caused by an acid condition of the sto-
mach. Mi-o-na corrects all this, pre-
vents the formation of acids, aud ner-
vousness, kidney trouble or rheumatism,
Is quickly cured.
Ask B. A. Smith TO show YOU the
guarantee under which he sells Ni-o-na.
Price SO cents, II costs nothing unless
cures.

Hair-splitting arguments usually eX-
ercise little attractiveness these
warm days for Uncle Samuel's hust
ling employees at the local post Office;
but when, during one of the torrid
spells of last week, one of the most
popular attaches of the carrier force
coolly walked in with a slick hair cut,
which the tonsorial artist had inge-
niously performed to initiate a bald
head, there were envious admirers
among the younger men. At the Oh
NEVILLE Station there is proverb
that a lettercarrier is nothing if not
progressive.

Tactics of Both Sides.
There is no doubt but that the prosecu.
Smith came to his death by5premeditated
murder at the hands OF his mother; and
that Mr.. Page will also laugh at any de.
tense on the grounds OF insanity. He will
endeavor to satisfy the jury that the boy
died from traumatic shock, which he viii
claim is instantaneous In Its effect, ant
which follows instantly from cause. He
will say that tho child died from the
effects OF blows received from his mother
after he had been undressed for bed or
the fatal "wednesday night OF April 26th
The defense will not, 1t Is thought, un.
dertake, to prove insanity. They will rely
on the statement OF Shepherd x. Smith
that the child fell out Of the back door
7 on the day OF his death, and severely
injured his head. They will quote the
statements made by the various experts
who gave each different reason for, the
4cAllo 8 deaLn; ana thcy VIII undertake
to prove that the mother had a legal
right to whip the dhild. and that she had
only the welfare OF the child In MIND
when she did whip him.
The people OF Manchester who have fol.
lowed the case carefully are almost unan.
imous In thinking that manslaughter
either voluntary or Involuntary, will BIZ
the extent of the verdict, while a few
so so far rs to state thatth prisoner vii
be acquitted. s
The question OF death or imprisonment
! or freedom, Is now in the hands ct the
twelye men who have sat for ten daxs
listening patiently to the evidence as
brought out in the case. The Jurors are
good men, simple and unassuming, every
