MAKES ASTONISHING CURES
,i-ona Tablets Cure Dyspepsia by
Promptly Removing the Cause,
or Money Back.

Mona is scientific and effective
remedy for the permanent cure of in
digestion.
Food is digested in the stomach by
means of a churning movement of the
walls of the stomach, which thorough
ly mixes the food with the gastric or
stomach juices.
If the muscular walls are f1abby and
lack tone or energy, the stomach can
not churn the food properly, md the
digestive juices are not properly mix
ed with the food
This causes indigestion. The COM
mon symptoms are weight and full
ness after meals, coated tongue, bad
taste in the mouth, discharges of wind
from the mouth, and belching of sour
material.
Dyspepsia cannot be cured by TAX
ing digestor, such as pepsin, be-
cause pepsin simply digests your food
artifcially, and not all of the food
either, for it has no effect at all on
starchy food, such as potatoes, rice
oatmeal, bread, etc.
There is just one -7ay to cure dys
pepsia and stomach disorders, trivia
or serious, and that is to tone up OF
put energy into the stomach walls, sc
that they will be able to properly mi,
or churn the food.
Mona tablets cure stomach trou
bles by putting strength and energ!
into the stomach. They quickly arouse
the stomach from its inaction, and il
a short time it is able to do its worl
properly
And bear in mind that when tn
stomach is in good condition, consti
patton disappears, also nervousness
drowsiness, night sweats, heartburn
! etc.

Kodol is a pleasant, palatable liquid prepare
ton that helps the stomach do its work in q
natural way and is the only preparation that COM
pletely digests all the food you eat. Being
liquid, it starts digestion at once
Kodol supplies the same digestive juices that
are found in a healthy stomach This is why it
will stop the pains Of indigestion quickly This is
why it prevents chronic nervous dyspepsia.
Your stomach being weakened probably by
overfeeding or overwork is unable to do Its work
properly, and the natural result is-ndigestion,
sour stomach gas or belching which will soon
result in chronic dyspepsia, unless the stomach
is given help.
That shaky. painful feeling in the stomach is
nervous indigestion or dyspepsia 1t is not only
annoying but dangerous. If left alone, the result
is generally gastritis, often that fatal affcton
appendicitis. Appendicitis according to the best
medical authorities is directly caused by indiges-
ton.
Don't neglect your stomach. Don't take any
chances. There is need for you to suffer, be-
cause little Kodol now and then will keep the
stomach well, healthy and strong. Do not diet or
starve yourself. That is not the way to get help
Your body needs the food your appetite calls for
you must have plenty of good food to make
>one, muscle and rich life-giving blood

"Said In FulI,v

paid in Full" a new play of con-
temporaneous life in America by
Eugene Walter, now the reigning
dramatic sensation of the current sea-
son in New York, where at the Astor
Theatre, under the direction of Wag.
enhal and Kemper 1t is in its second
triumphal year, is to be seen at the
Ebinger Grand, Ft. Madison, on Sun
day, Nov. /, with special cast and
production. The play also has to its
credit run of five months at the
Grand Opera house, Chicago. There
is no questioning the lasting success
of paid in Full" for not only did
every critic in New York and Chicago
laud it as the seasons greatest find,
but after the first week the demand
for seats in both cities became so
strong that it became necessary to
and that condition prevailed through
out the entire engagements. No plans
have yet been made for taking 1T from
New York until after next Christmas.
Paid in Full is play which treats
in forceful manner of great moral
issue in our national life today. The
author Eugene Walter, has shown a
marvellous Photographic instinct in
the drawing of his characters and
there is not single one of them with
which we of this matter-of-fact world
are not thoroughly conversant and on
terms of the greatest intimacy Per-
haps in this marvellous insight he has
shown concerning the lives and the
ambitions of men and women Is found
the secret of his great success. There
are four characters, Captain VIII
liams," Joseph Brooks" Mrs
Brooks and 'Jimsy Smith" which
stand out in a cameo-like sharpness
and precision and around these foul
characters he has woven a story Of
! love and hate, baffled ambitions
anarchy and socialism which because
of it's deep naturalness is bound to at

THE CITY HALL
Being AGI1A7ED
Much Talk Just at Present About the
City Buying the Old Med
caI College Build
ing.
MAY BE INVESTIGATED
Members Of the EIks Lodge Are Talk
ing About the Other Build
ing as Good Site For
Home.

The talk in the city about the Sew
enth street medical college building
being purchased and transformed
into city hall, is increasing and
while many people are in favor of the
idea, there are others who are not so.
No action has been taken by either
the city or the owners of the building
and there is nothing in the case so
far excepting the mere passing of opin-
ions among the citizens.
Every so often there is talk in Keo-
kuk of a city hall, but there has never
been any real determined action to-
ward getting one and really no urgent
need of one. The city owns all of its
fire stations and police buildings, but
rents the property used by the city
offices and superior court
BY having city hall with the pc.
! lice department, one fire station, city
offices and superior court, all in one
building the affairs of the city could
be brought together and prove quite
/ convenience The city would escape
paying rent and the property vacated
! by the fire station and police depart
ment, could be sold and the proceeds
used in the new quarters.
1t may be that all of this talk about
city hail. will lead up to some actor
/ being taken by the council at the reg
ular meeting next Monday evening.

Mayor Strimback is in favor Of tn

, and changing 1t into a city hall, pre-
viding the building is in good condi

} He has talked the matter over wit
several people and believes that

the city to do 1t.
The location could not be improve

The New Engine.
Tie new engine which is now being
taken apart and loaded on the cars
headed for Keokuk, weighs 100 tons
and will generate 1900 electric horse
power or more than is being used at
the present time at the plant 1t Is a
tandem compound Corlass and con-
tractors were at the plant this morn
ing making bids for the foundation.
There are no belts to the engine
and the company can do away with
four belts by installing the new en-
CINE. BY installing this new piece Of
machinery there will be no worry or
trouble at the plant and the company
can save money. This one engine
will be used for the entire power at
the plant, although the other smaller
engines will be retained. The light
and street railway service will be sep
arated and better service can be
/ given to each.
1t will take three weeks to load the
| engine on the cars and 1t will not be
in operation for about six weeks. AT
ter it is installed, the plant will then
be equipped with nothing but Corlass
engines and will be better equipped
than ever before ana the plant will
never be overloaded. The plant will
! have power to spare.
While the new engine is arriving
other matters are to be Strengthened
out at the plant and when everything
is fixed UP, the plant will be in better
shape than ever before.
! Mr.. Ayres had his choice of two ma
chimes at Norfolk, which were put in
+ just before the jamestown fair to car
ry the extra load of the street car sys

ton of both machines which were

Election of Taft.

the Taft sentiment he found through

He talked with many travelling mel

all for Taft and gave their opinions
that the election of next week would

didate.
There was no talk to amount t
anything in the east, of anything els
excepting republican victory mex

The Autographs in the windows o

Taft, even il Virginia and the mimi
towns along the route. He took spe
cial pains to notice this fact, which a
) though in the nature of a straw vote
clearly shows the sentiment.
