EAT WHAT YOU WANT.
Science Has Now Found the True
way to Cure Indigestion.

A few years ago, when a sufferer
from indigestion went to stomach
specialist, the result was a rigid diet
list that almost meant starvation.
But the first thing to do In the case
of indigestion or stomach weakness is
to strengthen the muscular wall of the
stomach and intestines, 30 that they
will care for the food that Is eaten.
In no other way can this be done as
well as by taking a Ml-o-na tablet
before each meal. This restores
strength to the stomach muscles and
stimulates the pouring out of gastric
juices, so that the food is digested
readily and its nourishment retained
in the system to build up energy and
vitality.
Do not think the sick headache,
heartburn, bad taste in the mouth,
coated tongue, spots before the eyes,
sleeplessness and the many other
systoms that are the direct result Of
indigestion, will 20 away of them
selves. The stomach must be built
up and strengthened by Mona before
you can be well and stong, free from
suffering and distress.

The very general opinion that Mr.. CorteyouS
issue of bonds for Panama Canal expenses was de-
signed to assist the bankers and fnanciers of the
system that has long been pulling valuable strings
through the Treasury Department is, shared by
George w. Austin, of New York.
Mr. Austin complained to the Supreme Court of
the District of Columbia that more than $2OOOOOOO
worth of the $25,O00,00O worth issued was sold to
National banks that bid premiums less than he bid
and that only million dollars worth of the bonds
was allotted to private individuals.
The complainant asked that Mr. Cortelyou be cited
to show why he should not be restrained from
delivering $21 100000 of the bonds assigned to banks
which bid several hundred thousand dollars less than
he bid The court granted an order and on the Sd
of January the Secretary of the Treasury will appear
to present his version of the case
The petition of Mr.. Austin cites other cases than
his in which parties seeking to purchase bonds
were crowded out of the transaction in favor of
lower bidders hailing from the banking circles of
the country
The public will be deeply interested in Mr.. Aus
tins in the realm of National financial oper-
atons. Many complaints of like character have been
lodged in the newspapers, beginning back in the
days when President Cleveland was holding up the
gold reserve with bond issues that were eagerly
sought by the New York clique

printed matter which does not circulate among the
people, and they have not been generally read by
the members of the Senate, who voted off-hand to
retain the object of the investigation a member
of their body.
Usually in an investigation of such character it
is customary for the legislative body to vote in
pance with the terms of the ma ority report of the
committee that listened to the testimony, but in the
instance of Mr.. Smoot that custom was abandoned
and prejudice was he ruling motive 1t can be seen
that a decision of such character might have an
effect on the public favorable to the church in those
remote parts where its vicious practices I'm
known and is possible that the boast of the church
is based on returns sufficient to warrant it.
If so, the Senate of the United States ought to
be doub1y ashamed of tsef-frst for its unjust de-
cision and second for the pernicious effect of that
decision on the of the people
1t is certain that PROSECUTING is being vigorously
pushed in the Eastern States and the missionaries
are using the action of the Senate in support of
their wholly fictitious claim that po1ygamy has been
cast out of the Mormon practices
The Salt Lake Tribune which keeps keen eve
the of the church, takes the other view of
the situation saying:
The truth is that the Smoot case exposed so much
of immortality, dishonest reputation of pledge per-
hdy to the public disloyalty to the Nation, and de-
fance of the Almighty, that the church has been
brought into general disrepute all the land and
as natural result conversions to the Mormon faith
are becoming more rare day by day. When the
herarchs and their satellites at home emit their brags
OF increased success they merely indulge in the self
deludng whistle among the gravestones; and the
obedient imitation performed abroad by the obging
missionary IS but a repetition of the doleful and
really uncomforting tune.
