StOmach'S Importance.
How to Strengthen 1t so That II Will Act
as 1t Should.

To enjoy both health and happiness,
it is absolutely necessary that the
stomach and digestive organs should be
strong enough to properly digest the
food. If they are weak and inactive, the
body will soon be in state of semi
starvation.
Nothing equals Mona stomach tab
lets in giving strength and tone to the
whole digestive system. Use this remedy
for few days, and you will find the
appetite keen, the digestion good, no
nausea or distress after eating, no sleep
lessness, no nervousness, and the back
aches and headaches that are the direct
results OF weakened stomach, will soon
be overcome.
Ask W. B. Eastman to show you the
guarantee which he gives with every so
cent box of Mi-o-na. 1t is the one
remedy he has faith enough in to
guarantee.

invaluable.

The Christmas Dinner

In spite of the fact that the word
dyspepsia means literally bad cook, it
will not be fair for many to Law the
blame on the cook if they begin the
Christmas Dinner with little appetite
and end it with distress or nausea. 1t
may not be fair for any to do that
let us hope so for the sake of the cook!
The disease dyspepsia indicates a bad
stomach, that is a weak stomach,
rather than bad cook, and for weak
stomach there is nothing else equal to
Hoods Sarsaparilla. 1t gives the
stomach yigor and tone, cures dyspepsia,
creates appetite, and makes eating the
pleasure it should be.

MEAT INSPECTORS DEN AL

Meat Inspector Isaac Miller fatty
denies IN local Sunday paper the
statement made in The Evening
Journal recently to the effect that he
was offered bribe to pass certain
diseased meat at the wilmington
Abattoir for a local butcher
The denial comes as a great surprise
IN view of the fact that the Inspector
made the assertion printed IN The
Evening Journal most positively and
dn the presence OF witnesses at the
Board of Health office
Whether in the excitement Of the
moment or carried away by en-
thusiasm over the rehearsal Of some
OF the excellent work he had done ia
condcmning certain meat MI Miller
mis-stated the facts is perhaps the
truth OF the matter. There can be no
doubt, however that the Inspector did
state that he was told II he passed a
certain COW valued at $40 and which
ne had condemned. it would be made
all right" with him. and that he as
serted. following this stFtfment that
when the time came thathe could not
live honestly on his salary as meat
inspector he would give up his job.
Whether Mr.. Miller was misquoted
in the Sunday paper or not is perhaps
the most charitable method Of putting
the denial which he is said to have

ROOF GARDEN
May BE BUILT
Peter ]. Ford Believes That
it Would Prove a
Success

with his usual progressive spirit
exhibited along the building line in
this city it is not improbable that
Peter J. Ford may give 10 Whining
ton that which has proved a success
in other cities-a roof garden.
For some time there was talk OF
such a garden being constructed on
the dupont building. This idea seems
to have been but a chimera. however
as the duPonts have given out no iu-
formation on the subject nor is IL
probable that they viii convert the
roof Of their large structure into a
place Of amusement.
When spoken to on the subject to-
day Mr.. Ford said he had been APP
preached number OF times bp
prominent people on the subject, and
although ne had not defined any plans
so far as to his new building, beyond
its height. he did not seem averse to
the project.
Mr. Ford stated that the building at
Tenth and Market streets would be
raised two stories at least and that
his present plans did not carry him
above that height The new building
adjoining win be raised to a similar
height
With the expanse thus given ample
room win be had for an up-to-date
garden. which will hll a place in the
amusement line which is much needed.
