ADVERTISEMENTS.
Mi-o-na Means Stomach
Comfort.

It's of Special Value to Many Here in
Ellsworth.
A notable discovery, and one that
appeals especially to many people in
Ellsworth, is the combination of stom-
ach help in the Mi-o-na treatment.
This preparation works wonders in
cases of indigestion or weak stomach.
1t acts directly upon the walls of the
stomach and bowels, strengthening
and stimulating them so that they
readily take care of the food that is
eaten without distress or suffering.
So positive are the good effects fol-
lowing the use of Mi-o-na that the
remedy is sold by G. A. Parcher under
an absolute guarantee to refund the
money if it fails to cure. A 50-cent
box of Mi-o-na will do the good the
stomach needs, which is simply to
make it do its own work.

A WOman'S Back.
The Aches and Pains Will Disappear if the
Advice Of This Ellsworth Citizen is
Followed.

A woman's back has many aches and
pains.
Most times tits the kidneys fault. 8AD
Backache is really kidney ache;
That's why Doan's Kidney Pills cure IT..
Many Ellsworth women know this.
Read what one has to say about it:
Mrs. John c. Meader, living at West
Ellsworth, Me-, says: 81 was so well
pleased with the benefits derived from the
use of Doan's Kidney Pills in the spring
OF 1902, that gave testimonial at that
time recommending them. For several
years my back was weak and sore and l
found it difficult to stoop or get up from
chair. l had such severe pains in my kid
neys at times that they felt like thrusts OF
a knife, and the pains often extended up
into my shoulders. There was also an
irregular action of the secretions, which
caused me much inconvenience, and
though l doctored and used different
medicines, nothing proved of benefit to
me until obtained Doan's Kidney Pills
at E. G. Moore's drug store. 1t required
but short use to free me from the pain
and to correct the difficulties. My daugh-
ter complained of having pains in her
back, and as had Doan's Kidney Pills in
the house at that time, / gave her some.
She, like myself, received much benefit.

half years which have elapsed since used

one Of these great parasites, and not be
aware of it.
Contrary to general belief, the appe-
title is not greatly increased--it only be-
comes irregular. There is fsintness, how
ever, and a gnawing sensation in the
pit of the stomach.
"People afflicted with one OF these para
sites are nervous and depressed. Their
chief sensation is one OF languor, and they
tire very easily. Lack OF energy and am
bition affect the body, and the mind be-
comes dull and sluggish. The memory
becomes not so good and the eyesight is
generally poorer.
"The New Discovery, in freeing stomach
and bowels OF all impurities, seems to be
fatal to these great worms, and almost inn
mediately expels them from the system
wish to assure anyone who has the ex-
perience just related with my preparation,
that there is no cause for alarm in the
matter, and that it will, as rule, mean
speedy restoration to good health"

Nearly all the Maine congressman have
now taken their fight northward, glad
that their work at Washington is COM
pleted. There has been little reason to
tarry in Washington, because the weather
has become warm and it is a relief to get
away to New England where there is more
life in the air. Representative Allen took
an early train north. Representative Lit
tlefield stopped in New York, where he is
already plunging into legal work in his
new law Office. Representative Powers
has been at Houlton ill for a number Of
weeks. Representative Burleigh is still
in Washington looking after many mat
ters at the department which he was
obliged to postpone. Senator Frye was
eager to shake the dust of Washington
from his feet and to HE away to his fish
ing haunts in the Rangeleys.
Senator Hale is glad 10 get rest, for the
duties Of the Senate have been arduous on
him nearly all winter long. He always
has to work right up to the last minute Of
a session, finishing the appropriation bills
and attending to what is known as floor
work. By that is meant taking charge of
measures in the senate and watching out
that Objectionable measures are opposed.
This is always sufficient to keep him oc-
cupied, but this year the Senate insisted
that he serve on the important conference
that was striving all through the last week
of the session to patch up an acceptable
emergency currency bill. He is one OF the
newer members Of the finance committee,
which fact, according to the customary
practice of the Senate, would have pre-
cluded him from service on conference
of that committee with the corresponding
committee Of the House.
However, as the senator had had lead
ing part in shaping up the first currency
bill and was regarded as one Of the best
qualified men in the Senate for the task,
he bore This share of it. Senator Hale
has come out ..of the session in fine
physical condition. His general health is
excellent-bstter, in fact, than it was last
December when the session began. He is
still able to attend to large matters OF
legislation and to look out for a multitude
Of details in the same connection beyond
the capacity, probably, OF any other
senator.
