E. J. Jenkins Has O New Remedy ior
Stomach Troubles that lie Guar.
sniees VIII Cure.


In keeping with his custom Of al
ways ordering supply OF new RENE.
dies ~ soon as their value has been
established, T.. j. Jenkins has or
dered q supply of Mi-o-na, a remedy
for stomach troubles that absolutely
cures and restores lost functions OF
the digestive organs.
Until recently IL Was thought that
pspsin was valuable In the treatment
Of stomach troubles, but II is now
known that while pepsin aids ia d.
gesting meats, IL has no effect upon
starchy foods, such a. potatoes. rice.
bread, corn meal, etc. As the major
sly OF stomach troubles comes from
indigestion OF starchy foods, this
makes pepsin absolutely useless In
most cases.
On the other hand. Mi-o-na con-
tains no pepsin, acts directly upon
the gastric glands, restores the lost
functions OF the digestive organs,
revives tagging nutrition, aids Ia
assimilation OF food and. in fact
so strengthens the whole digestive
system that you can eat anything
at any time without fear Of indi-
gestion.
Weakness, nervousness, sleepless-
ness, headache, backaches, furred
tongue, pain and distress after eat
ing, and debility are the result Of q
weak and faulty digestion. Use
Mi-o-na and all these symptoms Will
be overcome. and you will have per-
feet health.
Get 90 cent box OF Mona tab
lets today from T.. J. Jenkins and he
will guarantee 10 refund the money
II MI-O-na does not cure.

A day Of rejoicing 1t certainly is and
a time for thanksgiving for the bless
ings of liberty and happiness it Is ours
to enjoy.

The Fairmont West vlrgintan seems
to confuse the violations of social
ethics, usages and rules with the thing
itself. Crime and society are not
necessarily the same. The West Vir-
ginian seems to think they are. It is
right in condemning evil but in error
in placing the blame in the WRONG
place. This is all there is in the argu-
ment between it and the State Jour.
nal on the scubject and the matter
may as well go in this way.-Pa rkers-
burg state Journal.
That there is something radically
wrong somewhere is certain. and that
social usages and customs have a
great deal to do with ii, we think no
one can deny, but we are willing to
rest our side Of the case inasmuca
as the state Journal does the same.
It is now up to the iury-the people.
