DON'T DIE AT as.
Cure the Indigestion Which Is Sc
Liable to Lead to Apoplexy.

Rush of business, eating too fast
and FOO much. excuses of any kind,
soon result in Indigestion. Then when
the digestive organs cannot care for
the food properly the coats of the
blood vessels in the brain get little
no,lrishment, become brittle, and
finally Weld to the fierce blood pres
sure. one is then said to have a
shock" to be paralyzed, or to die
from apOpleXy.
People suffering with headache, gid
diness, palpitation, slecplessness, bad
taste in the mouth, drowsincss, coated
tongue. distress after eating, specks
before the eyes. and any other of the
MANY distressing results of a weak
ened stomach, should profit by the
discovery of Mi-o-na stomach tablets.
In recent years the greatest advance
in medicine has been in the study Of
diseases Of digestion and nutrition and
no other prescription has proven IL
self of as much value as Mi-o-na. 1t
il relied upon as a certainty today in
relieving the worst troubles of diges-
ton and assimilation and making a
complete cure.
The strongest proof that can be Of
fered in substantiation of the claims
that Mi-o-na will cure the worst forms
of stomach trouble, cancer excepted
and give immediate relief in indiges-
ton is the guarantee that Bowditch
Webster & Co. give with every 5O-cent
| box of Mi-o-na to refund the money
| unless Mi-o-na cures. A guarantee
| like this must inspire confidence ir
Mi-o-na Bowditch, Webster & Co
take the whole risk and the remedy
will not cost you a penny unless il
| cures.

condition of the ice We're more encour-
aging, and Il begins to look as if the
fishermen would have a chance to try
their luck within the next few days.
People who are stopping at the lake
stated that the gale which was blowing
on Wednesday, together with rising
water in the lake, broke the ice up a
great deal along the shores and also
cracked the fields. The ice looked
very black yesterday morning, and it is
thought that with the wind in the
right direction the ice will go to
pieces in day or two.
