Il MAKES LIFE MISERABLE.
Troubles That Keep Half the Leon
Doctors Busy.

Half of the prescriptions the Leon
doctors write are for troubles that re-
suit directly from weakened stomach.
Strengthen the stomach muscles, in
crease the secretion of gastric juices,
and you will find that common Attic
indigestion, with it's headaches,
dizziness, depression, of spots before
the eyes, nervousness, sleeplessness
and general debility been over
come.
From now on build up the strength
and health of the stomach with Mi-o-na
tablets. You will soon find yourself
strong and never know the meaning Of
indigestion. If Mi-o-na did not have
an unusually curative effect in stomach
disorders, it could not be sold on the
guarantee given by L. P. Van Werden
to refund the money unless it does all
that is claimed for it. He gives an alb
solute, unqualified guarantee with
every 50-cent box of Mi-o-na that the
money will be refunded unless the med
cine cures. He takes the whole risk,
and you can afford to get Mi-o-na from
them on this plan.

RULAL CARRIERS TO FURNISH
ALL DATA.
Interesting Movement Soon to be
Started in Campaign for
Good Roads.

Circular letters and code Of ques-
tions are to be sent out in the near fu-
ture to all the rural carriers Of the
state, numbering over $500 in all, for
the purpose of ascertaining the condi-
tion and improvements along the roads
over the entire state, and also to Sc
cure data that will be of Importance
and of decided benefit in the good roads
campaign that is being waged.
This movement is the result of con-
ference among Prof. Thos. Mcdonald
Ames, secretary of the Iowa Highways
commission; w. R. Spillman, general
superintendent of the rural free deliv-
cry service, of Washington, D. c., and
G. M. Adams, of Davenport, president Of
the Iowa Rural Letter Carriers associ-
alton, held at Council Bluffs last fall at
the Iowa good roads convention.
The list Of queries that all the rural
carriers will DO expected to answer are
being sent out from the office Of Prof.
Mcdonald.
An idea Of the significance Of the
questions asked each carrier can be
gained from the following synopsis:
The length of route, the number Of
families residing thereon, the number of
miles Of improved roads, the number Of
miles Of gravel and also of stone roads,
and the cost of these roads, if it is pos
sible to ascertain this cost.
The number Of King drags that are
used on the dirt roads, and whether
this system has proved to be help or
not. How is this work on the dirt roads
paid for? Is it out of tax, or do the
farmers do it for nothing? Is the num-
Der Of King drags being used increasing
or diminishing, and what service have
they given?
How is the drainage? What is the
number Of steel bridges, their size and
cost? =. The same question is asked con,
corning the wood bridges.
What is the number Of culverts, are
they concrete or Ewood, and what is
their cost?
These and similar questions are asked
in the circular that will be forwarded
and when the information is returned
Prof. Mcdonald will have some splendid
and official data on the condition Of the
roads in Iowa. Whentthis data is com
piled the statistics will be printed, anc
each Ecarrier will be supplied will
copies to circulate among the patrons
along his route. In this manner the in
terest of all will be aroused in tn,
good roads campaign.
