MAKES ASTONISHING CURES.
Mi-O-na Tablets Cure Dyspepsia by
Promptly Removing the Cause,
or Money Back.

Dyspepsia cannot be cured by taking
a digester, such as pepsin, because pep
sin simply digests your food artificial
~, 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 way to cure dys-
pepsia and stomach disorders, trivial
or serious, and that is to tone up or
put energy into the stomach walls, so
that they viii be able to properly mix
and churn the food
Mi-o-na Tablets cure stomach troub-
les by putting strength and energy into
the stomach. They quickly arouse the
stomach from it's inaction, and In a
short time it is able to do its work
properly.
Mi-o-na is successfully used in vom-
iting of pregnancy, in car and sea
sickness.
And bear in mind that when the

PAPER PRAISES EBERT
Michigan City News Says
That Captain" Was
Star Ground Gamer.

After holding the Hammond high
school football team to an even score
at the end of the first half. the Mich
igan City high school football war
riors went down to defeat Saturday
afternoon. The score was IL to 5.
Michigan City fought desperately, es
pecially on offense, during the opening
half, only to fall down in the final ses-
sion Saturdays game saw the sue
cessful execution OF the forward pass
on the part of Michigan City. In this
respect the crimson played an improved
game over their work on the Saturday
previous While the forward pass was
attempted but once in the Elkhart bat
tie, a week ago, it proved failure.
The defensive playing Of both teams
was weak. On offensive work in the
way of straight football. Hammond ex-
celled. The visitors principal ground
gamer was Captain Ebert, little
giant of over 200 pounds. Hunter at
fullback and Kennedy as a halfback,
were good on end runs. Misjudgment
of a Hammond punt on the part of Roy
Cashbaugh and Krause and their fall
ure to fall upon the ball before the
Hammond ends came upon the scene
was a costly mistake. Hammond re-
covered the oval on Michigan City's
ten-yard line and in three plays went
over for the winning touchdown-Mich-
igan City News.
