"REQUEsT ENVELOPES"
Order Recently Issued of Interest to
Purchasers.

All persons using stamped envelopes
with a request to return to sender and
their name In the corner will be interested
in an order just issued by the Postmas ter
General. Hitherto 1t has been necessary
when ordering such envelopes to pay the
whole amount for envelopes stamps and
printing at the time OF giving the order.
In case the delivery OF the envelopes Is de-
layed for amy reason this money has been
tied I'D. sometimes to the Inconvenience of
the purchaser. By Mr.. Meyers order 1t
will be required that the purchaser pay
only the cost of envelopes and paper-the
difference between the actual cost of the
time OF ordering. Tbs buyer will thus not
have to pay the face value OF the stamps
until the envelopes are delivered to him
ready for use.

HOME ON LEAVE OF ABSENCE.
Minister Lee Returns to Recover His
Health.

Mr.. J. w. J. Lea. United States minister
to Guatemala and Honduras, who fs home
on leave Of absence. was among Secre-
tary Roots callers at the State Depart
ment yesterday. He Is in feeble health as
a result Of stubborn fever contracted
during his long residence in tropical
South and Central America, and which
was aggravated by the rarifled atmos-
phere Of Quito. Ecuador. said to be the
highest capital In the world. where he
was stationed for several months as
United States minister after his transfer
from duty on th3 Isthmus of Panama 1t
was because the climate Of Quito did not
agree with his health that he was trans
ferred to the mission at Guatemala and
Honduras. 1t is believed that a short
stay In q temperate climate Like that of
Maryland will be of great benefit to
him.

Beware of "Digestves''
The Only Way to Cure Stomach Disor

The Only Way to Cure Stomach Disor
ders is by Strengthening the
Digestive Organs.
The ordinary pspsin tablet has
ruined more stomachs than all other
causes combined. While it gives tenn
porsry relief, it leaves the digestive
system weaker than ever. and the tab
lets must be continued with increased
frequency.
The only way to permanently cur5
stomache troui lie is by strengthening
the digestive organs with a Mi-o-na
stomach tablet taken before meals.
In this way the remedy prepares the
stomach for The food and excites the
secretion Of gastric juices so that,
when the is eaten, the stomach is pre-
pared to digest it.
If Mi-o-na was a mere digestive it
would be taken after eating, so as to
mix with the food, but then permanent
relief would not be gained.
Mona stomach tablets are sold only
in a neat metal box, convenient 70 the
purse or vest pocket, and cost but SOC.
Chrenshaw & Young have seen so
many cures made by Mi-o,na stomach
tablets that they give a guarantee
with every box that the money will be
refunded if the remedy fails to give
satisfaction. You u no risk in using
Mi.o.na, for you are sure to cured at
trifling expense, or your money will
be refunded.
