Try The Money.Back Cure For In
DIGESTION.

Nine times in ten stomach derange-
ments are responsible for sallow COM
plexion, dull eyes and thin body.
1t is the stomach that supplies
nourishing blood to the muscles, the
nerves, and skin. If the stomach is
healthy, plenty of nutritious matter will
be absorbed by the blood. If it is not
healthy, the food will ferment, and I'M
digested, will pass along through the
bowels, furnishing SO little nutritious
matter that the blood becomes impover-
ished, and the glow Of health vanishes.
If you suffer from nervousness, sick
headache, belching of gas, sour taste in
the mouth, heaviness after eating, or
any other miserable stomach disturb
ance, you need Mi-o-na, and the sooner
you get it the quicker you will be
healthier and happier.
1t will relieve any distressed stomach
condition almost Immediately. 1t will
cure if used according to directions. L

THE PEERLESS coWPEA.

At the head of all legumes, from
every imaginable standpoint, is found
the peerless cowpea. Imported into
this country about one hundred and
fifty years ago, and first planted in
South Carolina, they have continued
to spread until their cultivation now
extends into nearly every state in the
union. There are in general use over
enc. hundred varieties, and. wherever
grown their praises are sung.
The cowpea is the great soil reno
vator of the South, superior to any
of the clovers, and will grow and
thrive on land too poor for anything
else. Old wornout hillsides have been
reclaimed and made productive with
in a few years of growing annual
crops of peas ON them, and turning
under the vines early in the fall. On
soils always productive, the better
plan is to cut and cure the vines for
hay. Feed this tc the stock through
the winter and carefully preserve the
manure.-Cotton Journal
