WHAT CAUSES INDIGESTION
To BE Cured. Weakness of Stomach
Muscles Must BE Overcome.

The chief cause of Indigestion Is
weakness of the stomach muscle.
and lack of gastric juices.
BY taking Mona stomach tablets
the stomach muscles will be stimu-
lated and strengthened and the flow
of gastric juices will be increased
Mi-o-na does not do the stomach's
work: it makes the stomach strong
enough to do it. and in this way COM
pletely cures the weakness so there
is no further need of medicine.
No matter how severe a case Of
stomach trouble YOU have, Mi-o-na
will cure It by strengthening your
digestive system SO that both stom-
ach and bowels do their work as they
should.
C. C. Case sells Mona in 50-ccnf
boxes and guarantees to refund the
money if the remedy does not cure

Bcrlr,l's Statement.

Arthur Berard, who was recently
placed in the city jail 10 prevent him
from carrying out his threat to take
his life. declares the threat was made
for bluff and not with any serious
intentions. He says if he wanted TO
commit suicide ii would have been
an easy matter for him to have done
so while in the city Jail, as he could
have dashed his brains out on the
floor. He left for Seattle this morn
ing on No. 10 to make his future
home.
His is indeed a pitiful case, and
from dislnterested standpoint Of
view the governments attention
should be called to this man. With
out even a good common school edu-
cation and physically unable to do
any manual labor, he receies a sum
of money from the government en-
tirely too small for man TO live on
and has no way of earning more. It
looks as though little poking up
would be of some benefit.
The United States pension depart
ment has generously awarded this
man $500, which he receives four
times a year. This is less than co
cents a day

POVERTY LANE.

A street of humanity, sorrow and
a street of the rabble is Poverty
It isn't exclusive or stylish. YOU know
Nor where the best people are anx-
ious to go.
'Tis only the haunt Of penniless mob
But if you will listen YOU will hear
its heart throb.
And the song that it sings is a dole
full refrain,
For there isn't much music in Power
ty Lane.
The faces you see there are british
and thin
And stamped with the blemish OF
squalor and sin.
The sunlight is garish. the sky IS
forgot,
In winter they're freezing, in sum-
mer too hot.
The hours amounted drag on into
years
And add TO the total of misery and
tears.
Oh, why do they suffer, and who is
to gain
By the hearts that are broken in
Poverty Lane

KNOCKING THE WEST.

A systematic endeavor to knock
the western country has apparently
been started by the eastern press.
Especially is this true in the middle
west, where during the past few
weeks articles condemning this sec
tion OF the United States have caused
considerable comment. AS a general
rule these are written by business
men Of the east who visit this coun-
Try merely through curiosity. They
make the discovery that western peo-
pie are happy and contented; that
they are prosperous and wish to re-
main and as a result are continually
bringing friends to this section. thus
materially injuring business for the
easterner The majority Of the
statements made derogatory to the
west are founded more Or less on
fiction and can not be backed up by
the writer For instance, Detroit,
Mich, paper recently printed COM
muncation from brother Afraid-of-
his-Name 1t was largely taken up
with comments on the climate in
Washington and the comments We're
not altogether satisfactory and truth
full
Michigan has been having one of
the most severe winters of years.
while in the Yakima valley there has
been perpetual sunshine and scarcely
more than a hatful of snow. The
weather in the Yakima valley during
the past winter has been decidedly
preferable to California. 1t would
require an extensive article to refute
all misstatements made concerning
the west. 1t is not necessary. All
this country desires is the truth, and
it will need no defense.
The Toppenish Review pays the
Herald and the city a compliment by
mentioning the fact that this paper
IS giving Chief Of Police Nels Short
due credit for his work. The chief
Of police Is to be congratulated on
the good which he has accomplished
during his short time in office. BOYS

Because man is rich is no sign
than the reason man is in the poor
house is because he has been honest,
says an exchange. Men become
tiles and take them; men are not rich
and successful because they do not
take opportunities or have not the
ability to manage them when they
do take them. There have been rich
men who were strictly honest. and
there have been poor men who have
been dishonest. Success and failure
are regulated by other things than
honesty and dishonesty.

COMMITS MURDER
ON A STREET CAR
In Quarrel in Theater Throng
on Chicago Trolley

Chicago, March 13. - A theater
crowd laden Cottage Grove avenue car
was the scene at II o'clock at night
of an instant killing. While men and
women were huddled together in the
seats and in the aisles, white man
lunged forward, pressed a revolver
against a negro's breast and fired. The
negro dropped dead, and the other
passengers, panic-stricken, rushed for
the exits. Two women tainted.
The victim was John H. Mapp,
twenty years old, employed as a
coachman at 1880 Ellis avenue. James
Mcdonald, All Twenty Sixth street,
was the slayer. According to wit
nesses, the sudden starting of the car
caused Mcdonald to lose his balance,
and in an effort to prevent himself
from falling jostled the negro.
Mapp, it is said, made a sighting
remark, followed by threats of vio-
lence. Mcdonald then drew his reyol-
yer, and, placing the weapon close to
Mapp's breast, pulled the trigger.

NINE. ANNA GOULD
ADOPTS A RUSE
Assumes the Name of Miller and
Changes Steamers In Taking
Passage for America.

Paris, March 13.--It became known
here that Nine. Anna Gould, who
sailed for New York on the steamer
Adriatic, booked her passage on that
vessel under the name of Miller. She
had taken passage for herself and
children originally on the Kronprinl
Wilhelm, but changed her plans at the
last moment.
Although she had the written con
sent Of her former husband, Count
Koni de Castellane, to take the chill
dren out of France, she adopted the
ruse Of changing steamers and using
an assumed name to prevent the count
from attempting at the last moment to
interfere. Count BOni had been un
der the impression that Nine. Gould
was on the Kronprinz Wilhelm and
telegraphed greetings to the children
in care of that steamer.
