MAKES ASTONISHING CURES
Ni-o-na Tablets Cure Dyspepsia by
Promptly Removing the Cause.
or Money Back.

w &'AVs''E
Mi-o-na is scientific and effective
remedy for the permanent cure of
Indigestion.
Food is digested in the stomach
by cans of a churning movement
of the walls of the stomach, which
thoroughly mixes the food with the
gastric or stomach Juices.
If the muscular walls are flabby
and lack tone or energy, the stomach
cannot churn the food properly and
the digestive juices are not properly
mixed with the food.
This causes indigestion. The COM
mon symptoms are: weight and full
ness after meals, coated tongue, bad
taste in mouth, discharges of wind
from the mouth, and belching of
sour material.
Dyspepsia cannot be cured by ia
Depsin simply digests your
food artificially, and not all of the
food, for it has no effect at all on
starchy food, such as potatoes, rice,
oatmeal, bread, etc.
There is just one way to cure
dyspepsia and stomach disorders,
trivial or serious, and that is to tone
up or put energy into the stomach
walls, so that they will be able to
properly mix or churn the food.
Mi-ona tablets cure stomach trou-
bles by putting strength and energy
into the stomach. They quickly
arouse the stomach from its inaction
and in a short time it is able to do
its work properly.
And bear in mind that when the
stomach is in good condition, consti-
patton disappears, also nervousness,
drowsiness, night sweats, heartburn,
etc.
Hood & Curtin, the druggists, sell
Mi-o-na tablets under a rigid guaran-
tee to do all that is claimed for
them, or money back.

NATIONAL POLITICS DISCUSSED.
Candidates for Congress Debated the
 Issues Friday Night.

The political speaking held last week at the court house between Hon. Ben Cravens, Democratic nominee for congress, and his Re- publican opponent, Hon. Edwin Mechem, was attended by a fair sized audience, many ladies being in attendance.
 The meeting was called to or der and presided over by Hon. Hal l.. Norwood, who in his us- ual happy manner, introduced the speakers. Congressman Cravens was the first speaker, and after a few preliminary remarks, com menced his address and for about one hour he discussed national issues, the tariff, trusts, publicity of campaign funds and the blanks of the two platforms, which were his main subjects, and he was giv- en close attention.
 Mir, Mechem, on being lntro- duced, stated that this was his first campaign for office and not being accustomed to making cam paign speeches, did not expect to exceed the address of his oppo- nent, who is an old hand at the business. Mir. Meehem talked for about thirty-fve minutes in reply to the charges made by Mir. Cravens against the Republican party. He stated that the Re- publican party had accomplished more for the good of the country than any other party and he ridl- culed the platform of the Demo- cratic party and its policies.
 Both candidates were frequent ly applauded during their talks.
