 If you continue to suffer with the ills of indigestion, such as headaches. backaches. sleeplcssness. nausea and distress after eating. specks before the eyes, despondency and nervousness, now that you have been told of the good Mi-o-na stomach tablets will do you. then your indigestion Is an abso- lute crime.

occasion, but their plans to get the ribbons at the Alabama Agricultural Fair met with an unexpected check mate. This unexpected fact was the appearance of the blooded animals of high grade that were entered for the premiums by woman stock raiser of Montgomery County.
 Mrs. J. H. Hagan, who resides about six and a half miles from Montgomery on the Carter Hill Road, has a herd of Shornhorn cattle that are. and of right ought to be, the pride of the whole South. In competition with the best that could be secured from the four States that entered into the competi- ton. Mrs. Hagan has secured the honor of having her herd officially declared to be the championship herd of the Fair-an honor that is coveted above all other honors by the stock breeders who are here
 Fourteen First Prises.
 Mrs. Hagan has herd of about twenty-five animals at her plantation besides other fine animals, and she has ten head on exhibition at the Fair. These animals secured. in the award ing of premiums yesterday. no less than fourteen first prizes. three cham pionship ribbons and second prizes In every class in which her stock was entered, where firsts were not secured
 This Is a fine showing for any herd and Is regarded by stockmen generally as a high tribute to the fine animals every one of which has a pedigree reaching back for some time. This is more prizes than any two of Mrs Hagan's competitors were able to se- cure, and practically double the num- Der secured by the stockman receiv- ing the second largest number of rib bons.
 There are altogether nearly, if not quite, 150 fine specimens of blooded cattle on exhibition In that department of the Fair And 1t may be said in all candor and truthfulness that not single specimen Is in the slightest de- gree "scrubby"; all are magnificent specimens of the kind of cattle that the State of Alabama. and the great South, can raise The same statement indeed, may be made regarding the other animals exhibited in the various departments of live stock.
 "Our firm has exhibited at many dif' feren tplaces this summer in severa States" said Mir Giltner, of Eminence Kv whose firm has an exhibit of fine Hereford cattle at the Fair, and we have not found as keen competntion anywhere else, as here in Montgomery Our stock has won great number of blue ribbons elsewhere, and we captur- ed several this week. but l want to tell you that 1t is no empty honor that Mrs Hagan has won.

Sample Package Mailed Free.
 Other people notice your bad preath where you would not notice It at all It Is nauseating to other people to stand before them and while you are talking. give them a whiff or two or vour bad breath. It usually comes from food fermenting on your stom- ach. Sometimes you have 1t in the morning.-that awful sour bilious. bad breath. You can stop that at once by swallowing one or two Stuart Charcoal Lozenges, the most powerful gas and odor absorbers ever prepared.
 Sometimes your meals will reveal themselves in your breath to those who talk with you. You've had baee," and all of sudden you belcn in the face of your friend. Charcoal is a wonderful absorber of Odors as every one knows. That is why Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges are so quick to stop all gases and odors of odorous foods. or gas from indigestion.
 Don't use breath perfumes. They never conceal the odor. and never ab- sorb the gas that causes the odor. Be- sides. the very fact of using them re- yeals the reason for their use. Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges in the first place Stop for good all sour brash and belcn- ing of gas. and make your breath pure. fresh and sweet, just after you've eaten. Then no one will turn his face away from you when you breathe or talk: your breath will be pure and fresh, and besides your food will taste so much better to you at your next meal. Just try It.
 Charcoal does other wonderful things, too. carries away from your stomach and intestines, all the i'm
 nd which causes the bad breath. Charcoal is a purifier as well as an absorber. Charcoal Is now by far the best. most easy and mild laxative known. A whole boxful will do no harm; in fact. the more you take the better. Stuart's Charcoal I.ozenges are made of pure willow charcoal and mixed with just a faint flavor of honey to make them palatable for you, but not too sweet. You just chew them like candy. They are absolutely harmless.
 Get a new, pure, sweet breath. fresh en your stomach for your next meal. and keep the intestines in good work ing order. These two things are the secret of good health and long life. You can get all the charcoal necessary to do these wonderful but simple things by getting Stuarts Charcoal Lozenges We want you to test these little wonder workers yourself before you buy them. So send us your full name and address for a sample of Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges. Then after you have tried the sample. and been convinced. go to your druggist and get 25c box of them.
