NOW ON STRIKE
Millions of stOmachs Refuse to DO
Their Work Properly.

All over this broad land millions of
stomach owners are being held in hui
initiating subsection just because they
are so stubborn that they will not ac-
cept a fair. square and broad minded
offer.
Life is short for all of us: 1t will be
shorter for those who let their stom-
achs go from bad to worse.
E. G. Fowler has a famous prescrip-
ton called Mi-o-na, and he believes SO
thoroughly In its remarkable curative
power that he says to every owner of
distressed stomach that he will guar
antee Mi-o-na tablets to cure acute or
chronic indigestion and all stomach
ailments or money back, and the price
is only so cents a box.
And still there are stubborn people
right in Montgomery who won't accept
this softer. but continue to suffer from
gas on stomach. belching of sour food
stomach pains. foul breath, dizziness.
biliousness and headaches just because
just because-that's all. there Is no
other reason.
Mi-o-na tablets stop dyspeptic agony
in five minutes; they cure obstinate
cases Of indigestion and turn the old
stomach into new one in a few weeks
or money back.

rHoUcHr roa THE DAY.

A smile Is ripple OF love
from the soul. happiness from
the mind. and sunshine from
the heart. 1t is all this ana
more; It's spark of the Divine.
It Is pleasing to see and such
great happiness to receive.
1t Is contagious. Its effects
always refreshing and reaction
delightful. 1t Is distinctly a
superior privilege. Man alone
. of ali creatures can use, but
he cannot fathom its powers.
1t can arrest a child at his play
or groan upon the lips of the
broken hearted. 1t Is born in
heaven and carries heaven In its
wake. Like all heavens gifts,
1t is free and the supply is
limitless. The pity Is he uses It
all too rarely.

TOWN MUST PAY THE BILL.
Rupert Loses Case Over Charges For
Abolition Of Grade Crossings.

Bennington, Jan. 16.--The state board
Of railroad commissioners held n meet
ing yesterday on the matter of the
abolition last summer Of two dangerous
grade crossings in the town OF Rupert.
In the settlement of accounts the town
claimed that the charges Of the Dela-
ware a Hudson company, on whose line
the crossings were abolished, were ex-
ccssive. The estimated cost was $4,000,
while the company's bill was $4,000, OF
which, according TO the law passed by
the Vermont legislature In 1906, the
town is obliged 10 pay 10 per cent, The
authorities Of Rupert also claimed thai
the amount Of the bill presented by the
company for building a section OF high
way not included in the original con-
tract is too large.
The commission dismissed both ac-
counts, the first on the ground that the
expense is often greater than the esti-
mated cost; the second, they agreed,
was purely a local matter and should
be settled between the selectmen and
the railroad.
The Delaware & Hudson railway com
pany was represented by its engineer,
Frank McAlartin Of Albany. State At.

state and the selectmen of the town Of
Rupert were represented by Robert L.

composed OF Eli II. Porter Of Whining

gust over the outcome OF the sensational

that OF the friends OF John w. Kern,
who was beaten by BENJAMIN +. Shiye.
ly. Mr.. Kern had the support OF at Least
four-fifths OF the Democrats OF the state
and as the Republicans were obliged to
concede in advance the defeat OF Senator
Hemenway they hoped that man OF
the standing of Mr. Kern would be
elected. BY strange combination,
however, Of the saloon with the temper.
ance element and through the possibili-
tics offered by the secret ballot, Shiyely
won.
The result, without question will be
TO add Indiana to the list of states which
will choose their senators in the future
by popular vote. II is said here by
representative Hoosiers that II the Re-
publicans whose political careers have
been checked by the Democratic over
turn are disposed TO be vindictive, a
campaign could be made which would
make dry" all but four Of the counties
of the state, or eighty.six out of
ninety.two The liquor interest has
gained some victories through the injec-
tion of the state liquor issue into the
national campaign, but IL is within the
power Of the temperance element, with
the cooperation Of the Republican lead
ers, to make this the most costly victory
the saloon has ever won. In fact, II
this course should be decided upon, the
result would crystalize into permanent
form the opposition to the saloon, and
ground would ba lost by the liquor ele-
ment which never could be regained.
