 You eat food to ksep yourself alive. When you put food into healthy stomach 1t is the duty of that stomach to extract from the food all of it's nutritious matter.
 This nutritious matter is passed along to the blood. and in turn is car led to and supplies life to every part of the body.
 If your stomach Is upset 1t does not extract enough nourishment to supply the wants of the body. and naturally disease develops wherever the body is weakest se..s.
 Stomach trouble or indigestion oauses dizziness, biliousness, nervous ness, weak eyes. sick headaches, sleep. lessness, nightmare. water brash, beloh- ing of sour food, foul breath, des- pondency, constipation and even loss of energy and memory.
 For any stomach trouble, no matter how bad. Anders Jacobsen sells and guarantees Mi-o-na stomach tablets to give quick relief and permanent cure, or money back

Queer Eyes of a Queer Spider.


 The attus family of spiders, abound ing fin Java, have in addition to nu- merous smaller eyes a pair of large ones which have been called "RiR lamp" eyes. A specimen of the spider, captured near Buitenzorg, exhibits a remarkable power of changing the col or of Its eyes. When taken the eyes were dark brown like the body, but suddenly they changed to bright grass green. Soon afterward they turned back from green to brown, and this change of color was repeated several times in succession, apparently at the will of the creature. Whether this ac- tion on the part of this curious spe- cies of spider is an effort to inspire terror in it's enemy or whether it is an effect of its own terror is uncertain. Another singular fact Is that the color of either one or both eyes could thus be changed at will.-Harper's Weekly.

 'T am going to wire my brother, said Miss Fullerton.
 Before you do that" suggested Graham, his mind working slowly, but sanely, NT think it would be a good thing to telephone Judge Elliott and let him go after Vavin and HoIcomb as believe the latter will probably know something.~
 Elliott listened to what by this time had become a more extended narrative of Dora's disappearance. The nigh elevator man had been found, and ht had said that he had taken Miss Full lePton down in the elevator at o'clock and had called a cab for her. She had told the cabman to take her to the Forty second street station and had tipped him, the elevator man, dollar He was perfectly ready to testify that she seemed thoroughly sane.
 q think" said Elliott, "that we had better talk to Vavin first, as it was al his hotel that she had supper last night" The legal mind is really re- markedly sharp.
 "I don't know whether Vavin is fool ing us or not" said Elliott when he came back from the telephone, ''but he seemed as much put out about this as we are. don't understand that old digger anyway. He has all the man. ners of a Frenchman, and, although he has written some d-d bad plays he seems to have the sound morals of an American"
 '"That isn't as great compliment as you think it is," snapped Aunt Cor nelia, who had not been having a very pleasant morning.
 ''The thing that I don't really care so much about" said Elliott, ''is the fact that he asked me to let him call up Holcomb. He said that both ot them would be up here as soon as pos sible."
 q suppose" interjected Winthrop "that I can blame myself a whole lot for introducing Dora to that fellow"
 They were still discussing the mys tery and the possible calamity when Vavin and Holcomb arrived.
