Kodol supplies the same digestive
juices that are found in healthy
stomach. Being q liquid, it starts
digestion at once.
Kodol not only digests your food,
but helps you enjoy every mouthful
you eat.
You need a sufficient amount of
GOOD, wholesome food to maintain
strength and health.
But. this food must be digested
thoroughly, otherwise the pains Of
indigestion and dyspepsia are the
result.
When your stomach cannot do its
work properly, take something to
help your stomach. Kodol Is the
only thing that will give the stom-
ach complete rest.
Why2 Because Kodol does the
same work asa strong stomach, and
does it In q natural way.

The Stigler tOkla. Beacon of the
1th inst has the following reference
TO our former citizen, f :. Stigler
Immediately after Esquire Stigler had
received his appointment from the
county commissioners this week he
was called upon 10 hold examining
trial, in three important cases, which
were to have been tried in county
court but on account of the illness of
Judge Beckett and by agreement of
counsel were tried before him. The
cases were those of Matte Nicholson
alias Russell and Clayton Russell
Charged with adultery, and d. V.
Dame. charged with incest. All of the
parties we're bound over to district
court. The bonds of Russell and the
woman were fixed at $500 each, and
that of Dame at $500, which of this
time they have been unable to give.
1t is said that Esquire Stigler, who oc-
cupied the chair OF the county judge
at the court house, presided with all
the dignity of supreme judge and that
his rulings were strictly in accordance
with the law.
