 The Stonington license question has not been fully determined. and it is expected that it will be up in another form in g few days. Mayor Thayer, who appears for the liquor interests in the contest, stated Wednesday that an application to have it brought up in another form than ttat recently be- fore Judge Reed will be made, but he was not prepared to state just what it would be. He was positive in his statement that the issue is not closed.
 He appeared before the county com missioners here on Wednesday con- cerring their attitude in the matter, and learned that the board will keep it's hands off the matter and await the final decision. They have no other course.
 There have now been received by the board applications for 227 licenses in the county, which include licenses of all kinds. There are 20 applications from Stonington, four of which are drug licenses. No liquor licenses will be granted there unless the court de- cides that license prevailed, but until it is finally decided that no license has prevailed the saloons there cannot be closed.

Catarrh of Stomach Indigestion and Stomach Agony
 Quickly Ended

If you went to thirty doctors and paid each his fee for 8 prescription for indigestion or stomach misery II get such a good prescription as the cne from which MI-O.NA stomach tablets are made.
 How can such a thing be you naturally ask.
 Simply because the man who wrote the prescription from which MI-O- MA tablets are made knows more about stomach diseases than 96T per cent. of all the physicians in America and he gets paid for knowing.
 And when you can get large poS of tablets made from this doctor prescription for only 50 cents, are you going to continue to suffer? Sold by The Lee & Osgood Co. and druggists everywhere.

KILLING THE FLY.

Poisons have long been used
as an outdoor measure against
flies. The writer has done prac-
tically nothing with this meth
cd, because the Insects obtained
i'll this way could not be used
as bird food. However, if pois-
oning methods are developed
effectively outdoors, il is quite
probable that they may afford
the easiest and least expensive
means of discriminating flies.
We should then aim to keep all
food material tightly covered
except such as is poisoned.
Probably the safest and most
effective poison is formalin, in
about two per cent. solution.
This means eight teaspoonfuis
of the commercial formalin TO a
quart of water. Milk may be
used instead, and inthis strength
of formalin it will keep for
ever; or any other substance at.
tractive 10 flies may be added
However, plain formalin water
seems to be about as attractive
as any other mixture. and dur
