THE STRENUOUS LIFE.
Results in Stomach Troubles and
Physical Breakdown. Bowditch E.
Webster and Percy w. Means Offer
Simple Remedy.

The strenuous life of modern times
forces people to rush through their
meals hastily. hurrying from the Ia
ble in the mad rush after the almighty
dollar.
The result is incomplete digestion,
inflammation of the walls of the
stomach. and lack of secretion of the
gastric juices. ending in chronic stom-
aCh trouble and nervous breakdown.
How much better it would be to
eat more slowly. cure The stomach
trouble with Mi-o-na, and soon regain
perfect health. The headaches. sleep
lessness, nervous troubles. pain after
eating, Specks before the eyes. ba ack-
aches. melancholy and gloomy fore
toding would be soon overcome and
perfect health and strength would be
restored.
So reliable is Mi-O-na in curing all
forms of stomach weakness and trou-
bIes that Bowditch & Webster and
Percy w. Means give a signed guar
antee that the remedy will cost moth
ing unless it cures. Each box Of Mi
o-na sells for so cents. and is invalu-
able to anyone who suffers with in
digestion, nervousness or weak
stomach.

within the city of Gardiner has made
its report wilioh was filed Thursday d;
he office Of the clerk of courts
The committee, in a rather volumin-
Gus report recommended that the loca-
ton of the extension be granted as
prayed for. A hearing was held in the
city Of Gardiner some weeks ago. when
Hon. Herbert Nj. Heath appeared iii the
interests OF the traction corporation,
and city Solicitor Will G. Atkins Of
Gardiner locked after the interests of
the city. This hearing Was held before
the special commission appointed BY
the supreme court, ana the report lust
submitted is upon the findings Of the
commission, the members OF which
n.
Tile report will be returned to the
presiding justice of the March term of
the supreme court and that action will
be final. as far as the court is con-
cerned. The next step to be taken by
the City of Gardiner will be notice. of
an appeal to the State railroad commits
siuEcrS, ana il this step is taken, the
railroad commissioners will set Il time
for The hearing. Upon the decision of
the commissioners. the case will rest
as there is no further appeal CITY

the Journal. yesterday. that the city
would probably take this action after

report To the supreme court in March.
This case is also a rather unusual
one. and one that will interest muni,i-
pal CORPORATIONS and traction com
panicS throughout 1he State and tb.
fin2l outcome will be regarded with
much interest. The traction corpnr-
:ttion in this case wishes 10 extend its
line so that a direct and uninterruptod

maintained. and the company sub

Governor Cobb Makes a Shot visiI
al Capitol, Thursday.
STATE HOUSE CALENDAR,
Next Meeting of Governor and Council,
Feb. %, at 10 A. M.

IN response to an inquiry of Forest
Commissioner Ring by the Journal
Thursday morning, regarding the con-
Gition OF things i'll the lumber camps,
MIR. Ring said that the present lumber
ing outlook pointed to one of the lars-
est cuts OF spruce logs that had been
made in the State for number of
years, and that owing to the very ia
vorahle conditions for yarding logs in
the woods, and the lack of snow at the
usual ,lnle, there are. at this time
many logs to be landed. In Northern
Aroostook county there is an ample
amount of snow, and ii now looks as if
all of the logs in that section would be
secured. The same is true of North
ern PenObscOt ana Piscataquis coun-
ties. Most of the concerns that are
operating on the lower PenObScot are
laying back and have their teams held
up while they are waiting for the snow
to come, in order that they may be
able 10 get their logs, Il large propor-
tini: OF which are in the yard. On the
upper Kcnncbec ana Androscogsin
waters. where the operators are doing
fair business. matters are progressing
very well, but more snow is needed.
CIV ing 10 the lack of snow the Swan,pS
are frozen. but with the usual amount
OF snow to be expected from now on.
ana with the ordinary spring rains, it
would seem that the driving should be
fairly good. ON the whole the indica-
tionS point to good supply Of logs for
he pulp ana saw mills for the coming
season. In regard to the amount OF
snow in the woods, Mr.. Ring said that
Aroostook county reported one ana 4
half foot Of snow. and that operators
near Mattawamkeag report snow
