A Dead Stomach
OF What Use Is 1t To
Anyone?

Thousands2 yes hundreds of thou
sands of people throughout America
are taking the slow death treatment
daily.
They are numbering their own stom-
ach the best friend they have, and IN
their sublime Ignorance they think
they are putting aside the laws OF
nature.
This is no sensational statement; IL
is a startling fact, the truth of which
any honorable physician will not
deny
These thousands of people are swal-
lowing daily huge quantities of pepsin
and other strong digestors. made
especially to digest the food in the
stomach without any aid at all from
the digestive membrane of the stom-
ach.
In other words. they are taking from
the stomach the work that nature in
tended IL should do, and are also re-
fusing it the only chance for exercise
it has.
Mi-o-na stomach tablets relieve dis
tressed stomach in five minutes; they
do more. Taken regularly for few
weeks they build up the run down
stomach and make it strong enough
to digest it's own food. Then indiges-
ton, belching, sour stomach and head
ache will go.
Mi-o-na stomach tablets are sold BY
druggists everywhere and by The Lee
& Osgood Co, who guarantees them.

in charge of it held several meetings
and visits were made to the state high
way commissioners office at the time
regarding the matter, but it was i'm
possible to get it started then, as the
work on the road between here and
New London on the west side of the
river was about to be started then.
The road is now in very poor shape.
as reported by autoiSts and the drivers
of teams 1t was urged at the time the
Board of Trade had the matter under
way that the road would be used more
than that on the west side by autoists
who are staying at Eastern Point but
who do not like the idea of crossing
by the ferry to get on the west side.
whereas if there Was a state road on
the east side where the drive is a
beautiful one, it Would be a popular
thoroughfare to this city and bring
trade to Norwich merchants.
The work on the state roads about
this section is being pushed along
rapidly. the weather having favored
them in that respect. The $4,000
gravel road to Preston City is being
advanced weekly and on the Montviile
road the placing of the crushed stone
and trap rock lis being done on the
Michigan hill. A considerable cut has
been made at the top of the hill near
the Mohagan gate. The use of the
electric road track for the carting of
the crushed stone has proved of great
assistance and served to hasten the
work.

is expected work will be started on

While in town he had a talk with a
number who are interested in the inn
provement of the road between this
city and Groton which is now in very
poor condition. He stated that he in
tended to go over the road as he left
the city and would note it's condition.
What was very pleasing was his state
ment that he had had the matter of
improving that road under conSidera-
ton for long time and he hoped to
get at it within short time and was
of the opinion that work would be
started on it soon. In fact, he said he
