A Familiar Sign of Spring.

Today there appears in this pap"l
" statement to the effect that 1.-THE
MoXie season has opened" This has
NOW become regular spring announce
mcIt.
Cur readers. however, should not be
misled into believing that the MoXic
season is confined only to the spring
and summer months: such is not the
case. fer hundreds of thousands OF
people have learned that to drink
MoXie 800 days in the year is necessary
for the support of the strenuous life.
People who drink MoXie all the time
eat better, sleep better and feel better
for the use of this nerve-nouriShing
delicious beverage.
For nearly q quarter of a century
M0Xie has been used to advantage by
thousands Of families who have learned
that it is not only delicious and refresh
ing, but also that it will at all times be
of great benefit to its consumers.
Drinkers of MoXie accomplish their
work easier and do it better because OF
its nerve-nourishing properties.
AT all times and seasons, Moxie will
be found beneficial for business men
busy women and growing children
which accounts for the fact that 50
many families always keep a case OF
MoXie in their ice-chest.

BEWARE OF "DlGEsTIvEs"
The Only Way to Cure Stomach Disor
ders IS BY Strengthening the Dises-
tive Organs.

The ordinary pepsin tablet has
ruined more stomachs than all other
causes combined. While it gives tenn
porary relief, it leaves the digestive
system weaker than ever and the tab
lets must be continued with increased
frequency.
The only way to permanently cure
stomach troubles is by strengthening
the digestive organs with a Mi-o-na
-tomach tablet taken before meals. In
his way the remedy prepares the
stomach for the food and eXcites the
secretion of gastric juices SO that,
when the food is eaten, the stomach is
prepared TO digest it,
If Mi-o-na was mere digestive. il
would be taken after eating, so as to
mix with the food, but then permanent
'elief you'd not be gained.
Mi-o-na stomach tablets are sold
only in n neat metal box. convenient
for the purse or vest pocket, and cost
but soc.
Bowditch. Webster & Co. of Au-
gusta and Geo. ". pnrr Of Waterville
Me. have seen so mar: cures made by
Mi-o-na stomach tablr;s that they
give n guarantee with every box that
the money will be refunded if the
remedy fails to give satisfaction. You
run no risk in using Mi-o-na, for YOU
arc sure to be cured at trifling expense,
or else your money will be returned.

a FRIENDLY GROCER
Dropped Valuable Hint About Coffee

For about eight years" writes a

bed with nervous prostration.
Sometimes | would get numb and it
would be almost impossible for me to
speak for spell. At others. 1 would
have severe bilious attacks, and my
heart would flutter painfully when !
would walk fast or sweep.
Il have taken enough medicine to
start a small drug store, without any
benefit one evening our grocer was
asking Husband how | was and he
urged that | quit coffee and use
Postum. SO he brought home a pack
age and l made it according to direc-
tons and we were both delighted with
it.
so we quit coffee altogether and
used only Postum. l began to get bet
ter in a months time and look like
another person. the color came back
to my cheeks. 1 began to sleep we'll,
my appetite was good and commenced
to take on flesh and become interested
in everything about the house.
FINALLY l was able TO do all my own
work without the least sign of my old
trouble. l am 50 thankful fer the little
book. The Road to Wellville' 1t has
done me so much good. 1 haven't TAX
cr medicine of any kind for six months
and don't need any.
