CAN'T LEARN VERDICT
FOR THE THIRD TIME

Vancouver, B. c., Sept. 26.-For
the third time George Walkem, a
prominent civil engineer of Vancou-
YER. who is charged with having coun-
selled an Illegal operation on Blanche
Bond. of Seattle, will not hear the
Judges verdict. Judge Cane, who died
suddenly last night, had promised to
render a verdict at 10 o'clock TINS
morning. At his last trial Walkem
was found guilty and Judge Cane re-
served his decision pending an appeal
to higher court, which confirmed
the previous decision. Again the case
was appealed and a new trial ordered
upon new evidence, among which was
the alleged confession from the girl
that her testimony was untrue on the
last trial. She took the stand and
pointed out the woman detective who
wrote the confession. Now the case
must be retired.

A GOOD STOMACH.

Ambition Perslstency and Success.

Relief is not cure opium will stop

And it's just the same with alleged
dyspepsia cures which contain pep
sin. The pepsln will help to digest the
food, but the stomach is left in
worse condition than 1t was before.
You don't want pepsin to digest
your food you want the natural juic-
es Of your stomach to digest your
food If you have dyspepsia or any
stomach trouble, you want your stom-
ach so strong that it will digest its
own food.
You can make your stomach so
strong that you can eat what you
want and all you want any time you
want, without distress.
Mi-o-na will cure your dyspepsia
or any stomach trouble by building
up the flabby walls, and making the
stomach so strong that 1t will digest
food without artificial aid.
= In other words, Mi-o-na cures dys-
pepsia by removing the cause.
Tallman e. Co. are the agents for
Mi-o-na in Pendleton and they say
to every reader OF the East Oregonian

But a bit of terror smote her face
pale when she had passed the door

there was an unmistakable litter along

Of laughter?
But now the temper loosed itself
slowly-her face was scarlet. She had
nearly reached the married men. Some
one whispered:
Gosh! He's Citing even by sacking
her!"
This was repeated. There was more
laughter and more tittering. The
crowd deserted the lines nearest the
church and followed Sally down on
either side in huge tumultuous pha-
lanxes to see what would happen-if
it were possible that she would have to
go home alone. Several young men
who had never dared to approach her
began to think of it. They knew that
rather than not be taken at all she
would take any one of them! There
was more tumult now than laughter.
