Get Rid of That indigestion at Once by
Using MiO-na.

Many people in Monroe City
are slowly poisoning themselves
by chronic indigestion. Their
neglect to cure sluggishness of
the important organs of diges-
tion fills the system with fer
menting and decaying food that
results in sick headache, heart
burn, bad taste in the mouth,
and many other symptoms.
Mi-o-na stomach tablets are
for the special relief of such
sufferers. They quickly cure
the worst cases of indigestion
and when used a few days the
pain and distress often felt af-
ter meals will disappear.
Mona stomach tablets cost
but so cents box and do more
good than a dozen boxes of the
ordinary digestive tablets. L.
M. Wood gives an absolute, un-
qualified guarantee to refund
the money if Mi-o-na fails to

In our opinion he has made a

it ever will do. The laws that
should have passed at the reg

likely fail at special session,
and the state will be at a use

WORK OF THE STORM.
Wind, Rain and Lightning Do Damage
 Near Girard.

Girard, July 4.-(Special.) - Reports reaching Girard indicate considerable damage to crops from the heavy rains and storms in this section this week, and particularly in the peach orchards, where the high winds played havoc among the ripening fruit.
 Lightning struck in a number of places in Girard and vicinity the Girard Bap- tist building being among the targets A bolt struck the steeple of that church, but fortunately did not do much damage
 Howard Hall, Harry Geeslin and young Robert Mcknight of Columbus while encamped below Girard on the Alabama side of the Chattahooehee river, had an exceedingly close call. A heavy rain coming up, they took refuge in their tent under a big tree. Lightning struck the tree and the three persons in the tent were severely shocked. the lad being un- conscious over two hours. They were not standing on the ground at the time, which was very fortunte, it so happening that they were lying on quilts which rested on straw.
 Some ravine work done in this city by the county authorities has been damaged by the heavy rains. During the height of the storm nearly three inches of rain fell in Grard and vicinity.

The latter shortage has been made good. An examination of his papers disclosed among the assets three notes for $5O,O0O each signed by "Dick and Miles, on which 1t was claimed only s1O,000 had been paid. Although Smiths shortage was mainly due. 1t is said, to the loaning of public funds to his friends he is so pop ular that no one will prosecute him.
