a SAFE Way TO
STOP INDIGESTION
Without Fear of Weakening the
Stomach. Works Fine in Any
Case and Brings Relief in
Ten minutes.

The greatest folly Of today is COM
mitted by people with weak dyspeptic
stomachs who take artificial digesters
TO cure indigestion.
Artificial digesters-pepsin pills.
etc.-simply encourage lazy or
tired out stomach to shirk its work
by doing most OF its work for it. This
IS fine for time but as every chron-
ic dyspeptic knows, artificial diges-
ters soon lose their efficiency. Where
one once did the trick three or four
are now required and the poor old
stomach itself is worse Off than ever.
Your stomach must be strong
enough to expand and contract with
. sort of churning movment so as to
mix Its digestive juices with your food
II Syour stomach isn't strong enough
TO properly churn your food. you will
keep right on having Indigestion after
every meal until you make 1t strong.
There is one Stomach remedy that
every dyspeptic can depend on Us
surely as that the sun will rise tomor-
row and that is the famous old MILO
MA Stomach Tablets. Most stomach
remedies let the stomach rest and di-
gest teh food themselves. Mi-o-ns
won't digest anything but it viii:
strengthen and stimulate the stomach
and make 1t do its own digesting. II
stops stomach pains, gas, bloating,
burning, ibelching. etc, in ten min
1ites and does still better by making
the flabby. intlaned and inactive
stomach walls grow strong and lastic
and able to do their own churnine.
Mi-o-na Tablets never lose their effect
and unlike mere artificial digesters
need not be used forever. A few
weeks use is generally sufficient to
Tut any stomach in line shape and
Wells-Haymaker Co. and many other
leading druggists hereabouts sell il
with that understanding, agreeing to
refund money to anyone who does not
set complete relief.-Advertisment.

What has Great Britain Done?

What has Great Britain done?
Her navy, her financial credit,
and a small eXpeditionary army
were all that were asked by the
Allies. They would have been
entirely contented with these,
Fbut Great Britain gave indefinite
ly more. Her navy wiped the
German menace from the seas.
1t locked up the Wanted German
navy, which, without Great Brit
aims particiL alton, could have
battered France into submission
in a fortnight. 1t has removed
the submarine peril far more eff
fectlvely than any of the wordy
admonitions of Washington.
But instead of her expedition
airy army, which totaled 1870, 900
men instead of the lbs. 900 ex-
pected, she has placed upwards
of 1000, 900 men in the field,
without counting colonial Indian
troops, and has 1000, 600 more in
readiness, The relatively small
length of her line in northern
France is quoted, But it is curl
Gus to hear from German sources
Of captured Highlanders in Alsace
Relatively to all the others, Irish,
Canadian, Australian, New Tea,
land and Indian, the proportion
of Great Britain in this contribu-
ton is overwhelming.
But her service, in this in
stance voluntary, merely begins
here. She is the principal guar
antor for a credit here of$1, 0OO,-
600, 900, But she has lent al
ready to her allies, Russia, Italy,
Serbia, even Rumania, more than
5000, 900, 900. This is twice
the credit we are extending,
mainly for the benefit of our own
commerce with our best custom

Provide for Road Maintenance.

Don't vote for road bonds OF
taxes without provision for road
maintenance" is the wholesome
advice offered to the people of
Mississippi by The Progressive
Farmer.
That's the kind of advice bad
Iy needed in many of our coun-
ties tooay.
We have spent a great deal of
money for good roads, and it is
money well invested.
But the inveStment will be
wastedunlesS provisions aremade
tor the maintenance of these
roads.
The upkeep of a gravel high
way is from five to ten per cent
per annum of the original cost,
much depending on the quality
of gravel and top graphy of the
country.
Good roads are worth what
they cost only when provisions
are made to keep them good.
If you bought a piece of farm
machinery, an automobile, OF
anything of that sort, it would
soon become worthless unless you
tried to keep it in proper condi-
ton.
And so it is with good roads.
Unless provision is made for
maintaining them after they are
built, it will be a criminal waste
of money.-EXchange,

Analysing Your Troubles.

Have you ever taken the trou-
bic to analyze your troubles-or
more properly perhaps = tn
cause of them?
AS a rule people don't.
They come to regard trouble
and themselves as a good deal
like Daniel Webster's idea of lib
erty and union-one and lnsep-
arabic. And they go through
life accordingly. 49,,
There is everything to justify
the belief that nature intends a
certain amount of struggle and
disappointment for everyone:
The commonplace experiences OF
life prove that neither wealth
nor rank afford immunity.
But the notion that there can
be no divorce from trouble is
wrong SO times out of the 100.
Usually the worst of ones trou-
bles are of ones own making
or, at any rate, of ones own per-
hitting.
The man defes the laws of nat
ure or common sense, or both.
any pays the penalty. Or he sits
supinely by while adversely ties
him up, with the exception of his
tongue; this he works overtime,
telling of his misfortunes.
The overruling Power is bene-
fcent. Man is meant to be
healthy, prosperous and happy.
But in the sweat of his brow he
must make not only his living,
but his life. Exchange.

TICK ERADICATION.

The news item, which appeared
in this paper last week anent Mr.
Poindexter's loss Of forty head
Of cattle by tick fever, IS taken by
many as an evidence that tick
eradication in NoXubec county has
proven a failure.
A number Of papers throughout
the state copied the article and
few commented on it, probably
ha wing this idea in mine. But
such is not the case nor had we
any intention Of conveying any
such idea, as fully ninety five per
cent of the people Of the county
recognize the benefits derived
from the eradication Of the tick,
aud many vino were bitterly op
posed TO the work at first arc now
its warmcst advocates.
Mr.. Poindcxtcr's pasture is
close to the Alabama line and we
have been told that his pasture
was 10 infected by mares who were
brought on his place from across
the line to be bred.
Many live and progrcssly farm
ers and stOckmCn in adjoining
counties have seen the great good
that the eradication Of the pest
has done the cattle of NoxubcC
