M-o-NA MEANS STOMACH COM.
FORT.
It's of Special Value TO Many Here in
Pendleton.

A notable discovery, and one that
appeals especially to many people in
Pendleton, is the combination of
stomach help in the Mi-o-na treat
ment. This preparation works Won
ders 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 Tallman & Co.
under an absolute guarantee to re-
fund the money II it fails to cure. A
50-cent box of Mi-o-na will do the
good the stomach needs which Is SIM
ply to make It do its own work.

Speaks Right Out.

H. H. Tammen was in town for a
short stop-over today. He said: 1T
is ridiculous for a small show, whose
train. parade. performance. all testi-
fly to its real size in no uncertain way
to claim allegiance to the really big
shows Of the world.
There are only three shows in the
circus trust-Barnum- Bailey. Ring
ling Bros. and Buffalo Bllrs Wild
West. There are a number of small
Ter circuses that appear to do their
bidding
"Sells-Floto is not in the trust and
we are proud of it. Sells-Floto is the
only circus that exhibited in San
Francisco this season. The engage
ment was under the Shriners and
$4,000 was given to charity. Sells
Floto is the only circus with the
Shriners' approval, the highest rec
ommendation this side of the angels"
Mr. Tammen further said: "Citlzens
way Of finding out. The telephone,
telegraph and travelling men know
the different shows. Inquire, investi-
gate and always look an outfit over.
See their cars and go through them.
See the parade, the horses and their
stables. Peep into the cook tent
Sells-Floto urgently request that this
be done as to their show. What other
circus urges this? And then We were
here last year. Sells-Foto is known
and now it is up to the people. l
have faith in the good, sober judg-
ment of the citizens. Our date in
Pendleton is Saturday, May 30"
The PcndletOn Girl.
A letter from the Pendleton girl
with the Sells-Floto circus to be here
Decoration day MAY 800, requests
that the newspapers quit mentioning
her. She would like to slip into her
old town and right out again without
being known. From the way the peo-
pie are interested she will be unable
to do this. 1t is safe wager or bet
that some one will recognize and pick
her out "Who is she?" is still the
paramount question for discussion
and will so remain until Sells-Floto
circus day, Saturday, May 30.

H. H. Tammen, the fearless owner
Of the Denver Post, and general man.
ager of the Sells-Floto circus, again
shows his big heart. He is partial to
the boys who carry the daily papers
to the homes and stores. In fact. he
was once newsboy himself and sold
papers on the streets.
Remembering his past he will have
the carrier boys of the Pendleton pa
pers at his circus Saturday, May 30.
They will be his honored guests.
In speaking of It he says ut will
do me more good than to entertain
the president OF the United States or
any European potentate. The news
boys are real kings. Bless every one
of them"

That Washington stockmen are Sc
riously in need OF grass is shown by
the fact that the woolgrowers OF the
Evergreen state are now clamoring to
be allowed to enter the Cascade for,
est reserve on account Of the scarcity
OF grass on the outside. The Yakima
Republic says Of the matter:
Stockmen OF Washington, acting
through the Washington Association
OF woolgrowers, are preparing a re-
quest 10 be made to the forest reserve
supervisor Of the Rainier forest. re-
serve at the earliest possible moment.
They claim that such permission is
necessary TO the saration Of the
flocks.
The thousands of head of stock in
the eastern portion of the state ara
already suffering because of the lack
OF forage on the ranges. The ewes
are not getting enough food and can
not nourish the lambs. A stunted
generation would be the result of a
continuation OF such conditions.
Again Petition Supervisor.
The reserve, in the ordinary course
OF events. will not be open until July
or thereabouts. In the winter.
when the reserve was apportioned, a
request was made that permission be
given to enter it earlier than the date
given but this request was not acted
upon favorably. II will be again put
up to the supervisor. the weather con-
ditions having made the necessity,
which the stockmen felt then existed,
doubly great at this time
Arthur Coffin and S. ]. Cameron
are among the North Yakima stock
men who think the reserve should be
opened as early as possible in order
to prevent serious loss TO those with
stock. They think that as a general
thing the lower portions of the reserve
can carry stock at date earlier than
is permitted, and that, new sections
having been incorporated within the
reserve which had previously been
used by the stockmen until the old
reserve was open, these sections at
least might be thrown open soon.
Thinks the Rule Is Wrong.
THE general rule think is wrong"
said S. ]. Cameron this morning 1.-THE
whole reserve is thrown open early in
July. This opening date applies to
grass at the edge Of the timber as we'll
as to the land away up 5000 feet high
where the snow is lying. There is
good grass now at the lower attitudes
which is going to waste while the
snow Is covering the higher attitudes
where there will be no grass for some
time TO come.
However, under the present policy
1t is all closed against the stockmen
while the fodder is burned out on the
low land and the stock is suffering.
We are TO again ask the forest reserve
supervisor for permission to Craze at
a date earlier than that fixed for the
general opening. Some of the owners
will meet with serious loss otherwise
and there is no question that thou
sands of head of stock will suffer un-
less relief is afforded"
