WORSE THAN ONIONS.
Bad Breath From Indigestion Can.
not be Overcome With Perfumes.

All of us suffer from bad breath
sometimes our own, but oftener that of
our friends.
Nine tenths of this bad breath
comes from some stomach trouble, and
cannot be overcome by breath per-
fumes or any other palliative measures.
If you occasionally have a bad
breath; if there is heartburn,
flatulence and acid gulpings of I'M
digested food; if the stomach burns or
smarts if there is sleeplessness.
nervousness. headaches or any other
of the many symptoms of indigestion,
use Mi-o-na stomach tablets and get
we'll.
Mi-o-na is not a mere digestive nor
a physic, but a tonic remedy that
strengthens the muscles of the
stomach and bowels so that the flow "
gastric juices is increased, and the
food is digested naturally and does not
stay in the stomach to ferment and
poison the breath with nauseous doors.
A little 50-cent box of Mi-o-na
stomach tablets lasts for couple of
weeks, and will ward off dozen mild
attacks of indigestion. If you suffer
with a chronic case Of stomach trouble,
the use of Mi-o-na for reasonable
length of time will give you an abso"
lutte and complete cure.
Bowditch, Webster & Co., have seen
so many cures made by Mi-o-na
stomach tablets that they give a
guarantee with every 50-cent box that
the money will be refunded if the
remedy fails to give satisfaction
They take the whole risk, and box
of Mi-o-na will not cost you a penny
unless it cures you.

Augusta, Maine, Feb. 20, 1908.
The basis of representation in the
call for the Republican State Conven-
ton to be held at Portland, Thursday,
April 80, 1908, at 100 o'clock P. M. for
the purpose of choosing six presi-
Dental electors, also four delegates

plantation will be entitled to one dele
gate and for each rs votes cast for the
Republican candidate for Governor in
1906, an additional delegate, and for
q fraction of 40 votes in excess Of Is
votes a further additional delegate.
That there may De no misunder-
standing, the secretary of the COM
mittee has mace classification of
delegates based upon this representa-
ton. The town or plantation which
threw "a votes is, under this call. only
entitled to one delegate. In order to
get a second delegate it must have
thrown IS votes for the Republican

1t is hoped that if any errors are
discovered in the list they will be

By Jay Davidson

breeders of thoroughbreds In the world
and whose colors have not been seen III
races more than twice In ten years, will
return to the game and make his debut
at Santa Anita. Breeders generally
must turn to this feature of the game
in self-defense. J. B. Hagg1n, another
famous breeder, will have string al
Santa Anita next winter.
Among the other new faces that will
be seen around the Arcadia paddock
next season will be Andy Blakely, Sam
Emery, Albert Simons, James Arthur,
Dick Watkins, j. w. Schorr, Jimmy
Mccormick and H. B. Duryea. These
are only a few of the new ones. Many
others will require Introduction before
they will become known to local race
goers.
Andy Goldsborough, who has trained
for Jack Bennett for many years, Will
have three big stables to look after
next winter. In addition to the Ben
nett string he will have the western
division of the stables of Phil Dwyer
and Matte Corbett. He will have real
race horses in his charge and will make
things lively for other owners who
have designs on the stakes and purses.
Baron Long says that work on the
new roof to be placed on the Vernon
pavilion will be commenced immediate
ly after the Wolgast-Webste fight
September 29 and will be completed be-
fore the Papke-Kelly fight. 1t will be
a new design in roofing, as it will be
expected to serve as a rain shed in the
rainy season, a parasol in fair weather
and at all times a smoke and hot air
chute to make life worth living for the
patrons who sit beneath it. The mar
row escape of the club in the Ketchel-
Papke fight, when 1t seemed the night
previously that rain would force q
postponement, settled the discussion re-
garding the necessity for a roof.

The RiaItO

and perhaps one or two others Will
leave Saturday night for the Tehachapi
country for a deer hunt of ten days.
Billy Papke and 7. L. Jones will meet
them Sunday evening and accompany
them on the trip, returning to Los An
geles in the auto. 1t was intended to
go today, but the party changed the
plans, owing to the bright moonlight
these evenings.
Ketchel and Papke will celebrate
three days older than Papke, his birth
day arriving Monday, while Papke
must wait until Thursday for his ami
versary cake. Both will be 22 years
old.
Abe Attell is getting a good panning
from the Frisco sporting press. The
northern fight critics do not believe
Abe tried as hard as he should have
done in either of his fights with Moran
and accuse him of laying up the Eng
lishman for another heat when big
ger house and better odds will prevail.
Some of the writers are real 'nasty''
in their arraignment, and Abe un-
doubtedly is finding himself decidedly
unpopular for a time in the north.
1t is real nice to think about all the
big bugs in racing coming to Los
Angeles for the winter, but 1t is a good
bet out Arcadia way that the news that
Mickey Sheedy and Tommy F'ullum
will be back will produce more happi-
ness and real Joy in that city. These
happy boys made big hit last season
all the way from Monrovia to Arcadia,
inclusive.
The turf events of general interest
this week are the Annual Champion
and Great Eastern handicap. both blue
ribbon events and rich stakes. They
will be run Saturday afternoon at
Sheepshead Bay and will be the final
big stakes of the meeting.

ment were drawn and signed. Bathing
Johnson and Manager Gaines left
few hours later for Follows camp,
away up in the mountains near Azusa,
where the big Russian will rusticate
while working himself into condition.
and 1t is probable that he will do all
his training In that vicinity. Johnson
has fully recovered his health and
weight, but had to submit to an opera
ton yesterday to relieve an injury TO
his nose, which probably was broken
in one of his recent fights. Berry will
train at Arcadia or Venice and Will
start work Monday morning. This VIII
be a most attractive battle for those
who dote on slugging, as the two
giants rely entirels upon their hitting
and endurance to win their fights.
Young Otto has arrived in New
York and is happy again, according to
a letter received yesterday. He says
that the place looks natural and ne
feels more natural since getting back
home. He had a match on Tor last
night and believes he will find 1t easier
to get profitable eastern engagements
since his trip to the coast. Weight
making is easier for him down east
than on the coast, and he can make
the lightweight limit with ease.
