WHAT CAUSES INDIGESTION.
To Be Cured, Weakness OF Stomacf
Muscles Must be Overcome.

The chief cause of indigestion IS the
weakness of the stomach muscles anu
the lack of gastric juice.
To make a complete cure of stomach
trouble. most people think they have
to give up business and devote their
time to dieting, exercise, and, perhaps,
a vacation.
But by taking Mi-o-na stomach
tablets the stomach muscles Will De
stimulated and strengthened and the
flow of gastric juice will be increased
M-o-na does not do the stomach
work: it makes the stomach strong
enough to do it. In this way the
trouble is completely cured and there
Is no further need of medicine.
No matter how severe case OF
stomach trouble you have. Ml-o-na
will cure it by strengthening the whole
digestive system. and you will soon
find that both stomach and bowels do
their work as they should.
Bowditch. Webster & Co. sell
Mi-o-na in 5O-cent boxes, and guaran-
tee to refund the money if the remedy
does not give complete satisfaction
They take all the risk. and the remedy
costs you nothing unless it cures.
If you suffer with sick headache
heartburn bad taste in the mouth
coated tongue. specks before the eyes
sleeplessness, nervous troubles. or any
of the other symptoms of indigestion
here is the chance to get remedy on
the fairest plan ever known-costs
nothing unless it cures.

He Should Have a New Monum ent

A good, strong locust post and five
! foot wire fence has been built around
the graveyard in which General vii
| liam Darke, of the Revolutionary War,
lies buried, half way between Dufflelds
and Sh nandah Junction, this county
The farm, which was bought from
Lord Fairfax by Melchor EIgle in
1850 was being divided among the
heirs of Mrs. Sarah Jane Engle Rome
nous this spring, when James M. En-
gle notified the executor, Oscar Black
ford that they claimed the old grave
yard of the Engle family, as the laws
of West Virginia reserve graveyards
So the executor had the graveyard
surveyed out and Mr.. Harris, Joseph
f. Engle al d James NJ. Engle con.
| tributed and built around it good
strong fence. General Darke was a
trustee of the town of Charlestown and
brave colonial soldier, who saved
the Anne riean army at st. Clair's de-
feat by gland charge with his .Jeder,
son and Berkeley regiments at criti
cal moment in that memorable battle.
The county and State should honor
his grave with monument. Only q
small tombstone marks the grave now

The farmers of Berkeley county are
just now reaping SEINE OF the Roose-
welt, republican high tariff, prosperity
in the price of wool. Last year wool
sold here readily at from 80 to "a cents
and this year at just half. The repub.
lican speakers and newspapers lhave
for years been pointing TO the low
price, about 20 cents for wool under
the Wilson tariff bill as being con
elusive proof of the utter ruination to
the farmers of low tariff on " DOL. Now
what are they saying? We have had
twelve years of uninterrupted repub-
liean, high tariff, rule aud Yet VOL is
lower than was ever know in thi :
country. We have no DOUBT some of
the apostles of protection Will say that
the fear of Bryans election is the cause
of the low price of wool AID all this
fin ancial stringency.

The first session of the sixtieth Con-
xress came to a close last week. When
Congress left Washington it left the
treasury dry, 1t spent more of the peo-
pies money than any one session OF
Congress IN the history of the country.
\ few years ago when Congress spent
a billion dollars at both sessions 1t was
the subject of much comment and de-
Aounced as great extravaganza. Now
that a billion has been reached IN
one half the life of the Congress what
will the people have to say?

1t seems that there no longe re-

have cut that out and now force every

people.
OF course the people will trump
in the end and the saloons are only
Fastening their own doom.
We know of numbers Of men who
have always endeaN ored to be neutral
and would have remained SO probably
all their lives, who have been driven 10
open opposition 10y the actions OF the
liquor people.
The saloon must quit politics or be
exterminated fol the people will not
stand the arbitrary dicta.ioAs OF any
class or set Of nen Ever though their
business be a most honorable one and
productive of good in the community.
Martinsburg statesman-democrat. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1906-1921, 1908-06-05

The democrats of Berkeley county
feel disappointed that Mr.. J. NJ. Wo-ds
was not nominated at the democratic
state convention at Wheeling, last
week. No man in the state stands
higher than he, the state has few men
his equal as judicial timber and none
superior. His nomination and election
would have been great benefit to the
state. Berkeley county has never held
position upon the supreme bench
and We all felt that we were ent tied to
tine nomination especially since we
presented such excellent material.
