FOUR SIMPLE RULES.
Follow Them and Health, Happiness and
Prosperity Will Be Yours.

If one would be healthy, happy and
prosperous, follow these four simple
rules. lst, Keep the bowels open ev-
cry day. I'd, Chew your food slowly
and thoroughly. 3rd, Avoid indigest'
ible foods. 4th, If there are any
symptoms of stomach troubles, take
Mi-o-na before each meal until cured.
No matter how many years you
may have suffered with stomach trou-
bles or how worried by sleeplessneas,
nervousness, loss Of appetite, furred
tongue, specks before the eyes. head
aches, backaches, weakness and de-
bility, indigestion or other ills that
are caused by a weak stomach, you
can be cured by the faithful use of
Mi.o-na.
Mi-o-na is not a fanciful expert
ment, 1t Is not a patent medicine, 1t
is not a cure all. 1t is a scientific
remedy recommended but for one trou-
ble,-weakness of the digestive OF
gans. 1t is permanent cure, and ls

"Turf Exchange" Not Wanted.

A mase meeting was held in Shep-
herdstown Tuesday afternoon to pro-
test against the issuing by the County
Court of Jefferson county of license
to the Metropolitan Turf Exchange,
an aggregation of Washington gam
blers and sporting men who want to
run pool room in Harper's Ferry.
Although but short notice was given,
the town hall was filled with people
from the town and vicinity, who by
their presence and votes put them
selves on record against the proposed
scheme.
The meeting was called to order by
Rev. DR.. Charles Ghiselin, and Hon.
A. S. cambridge was named as chair
man. Mr.. cambridge in an earnest
speech explained the object of the
meeting, and then introduced Bishop
Gravatt, of Charles Town. The Bish-
op had documentary evidence show
ing the character of the proposed Eek
change" and also some information
from the Police Department of Wash
ington as to the sort OF men wo are at
the head of the movement. de
showed that it is practically the same
gang and the same sort OF business
that made Jackson City and st. Asaph,
near Washington, so notorious. and
which were finally driven from that
section. The Bishop made very clear
the sort of institution this turf eI-
change" is and how Objectionable it is
to a community. Rev. j. S. Al
friend, of Charles Town, also made
remarks along the same line, and b.
L. Snyder spoke strongly against the
proposition as one Of the most vicious
evils that could be introduced into
our county. Rev. DR.. Charles Ghlse-
lin then offered resolutions thanking
Bishop Gravatt for his active efforts
in seeking to prevent this threatened
evil, and praying the County Court
to refuse license to the Metropolitan
Turf Exchange. The resolutions were
unanimously adopted, and after the
meeting adjourned many persons sign.
ed the petitions to the court asking 1t
to refuse to grant the license.
The Metropolitan Turf Exchange
seemed to be laying plans to do very
extensive business and to fly very
high. 1t is asserted that they had
made a contract with the B. q o.
Railroad to run fast train each day
between Washington and Harpers
Ferry, putting up guarantee OF
$3.50 a day, and besides the quarters
to be operated in the town had also
arranged to run the Rafting Springs
hotel as a wide-open club house. No
expense was to be spared to provide
every facility for betting and gamb-
ling and various other features that
usually accompany such enterprises.
1t is quite unlikely, however, that
this scandalous organization Will ma
foothold in Jefferson county. Our
County Court, We understand, would
not look with favor upon the project
in any event, and now that public
sentiment has been 80 plainly mani
tested it is practically certain that
no license will be granted. Indeed,
at meeting of the town council OF
Harper's Ferry Tuesday night the
cou ell rescinded It's former action
granting a license to the exchange
and there is, we are informed, no pos
sibility that it will again give It
favorable consideration.
A county mass meeting will be
held at Charles Town today to make
further protest against the prop sed
Exchange. "
