Food FeIments
Causes Indigestion and Stomach
Distress.

Indigestion or any chronic stomach
trouble leads to loss of vigor and vi
tally; half the nervous wrecks in
America today can blame Indigestion
for their condition.
Fermentation of food means that
your stomach is run down; that your
food does not digest and that the
blood, not being supplied with nutri-
tious elements, cannot supply the
various organs of the body with suf-
ficient nourishment
That's why indigestion often causes
eye weakness, brain fag, palpitation
of the heart and inactive liver.
MI-O-NA stomach tablets will
build up your run down stomach, will
Danish indigestion and put your whole
system in good condition if you will
give them a chance. They are sold
by G. R, Fogg at only so cents a large
box. 1918

MYHRE IS CHARGED
WITH WOMAN'S DEATH
ooRoNER's JURY DECIDES EVIL
DENCE rs AGAINST MAN
HELD ON SUSPICION.

Guilty of murder in the eyes Of
coroner's jury, George Myhre was yes
terday charged by Deputy Rose with
the killing of Annie Hall, half white
girl who died yesterday morning from
mysterious injuries received the night
before.
An autopsy was held yesterday,
showing that besides bad cut over
her eye the back of the woman Is head
was badly battered, resulting in a eliot
on the brain which caused her DEATH
Myhre claimed that she had fallen
from window, but the preponderance
of evidence was against him and his
"theory,v which did not explain the
cut over the eye after it had been
compared with the position of the
woman when found ana the course he
said her body had taken
Witnesses testified that they had
heard a humping in the room where
Myhre and the girl were known to be,
which seemed to correspond, from their
description, with the noise that would
have been made by some one knocking
the head Of another against the floor
or wall.
| What appeared to be the strongest
testimony against him was given by
several men he had seen afterwards, to
whom he said that he had clicked y
her after she got drunk and wanted to
60 somewhere else.
The charge against the man is muir
der in the first degree and If modif-
cation is necessary it will be left to
the grand jury.
The verdict of the jury read: "Annie
Hall came to her death on the twenty
third day of March, 1911, at Honolulu,
from extravasation of blood and com
preston from clot about the base Of
brain, said injuries being inflicted by
one George Myhre."

A communication was read from the

ground that the present system has
proven itself satisfactory and that
there is yet to be noted bank failure

A resolution was also read from tho

"They object TO bill ninety-one, they

in despair.
Mr.. Spalding acted as the spokes-
man for the financial institutions and
voiced the opposition to the measures
before the senate. He dwelt Upon the
high standing of the Hawaiian banks
during tho recent financial panic and
asserted in behalf Of the banks that
they consider the present laws ample
for the conduct and control of the
banking aud trust institutions of the
Territory.
Mr.. Lewis, Mr.. Smith and others all

the same argument, that there was no
necessity for the legislature to change

Chairman Fairchild announced that
another hearing on the bills would be
held next Saturday and the hearing ad-
iourned.
