STOMACH MISERY
QUICKLY VANISHES

Your money back if you want it is
The way in which w. w. Alters
the popular druggist is selling Mi-o-na
Che great dyspepsia remedy.
This is an unusual plan, but Mi-o-na
has so much merit and is so almost
invariably successful in relieving all
forms OF indigestion that he run but
little risk in selling under a guaran-
tee of this kind.
DO not be miserable or make your
friends miserable with your dyspepsia.
Ml-o-na will help you. If it doesn't
tell W. W. Albers, that you want
your money back and he will cheer
fully refund it.
a change for the better will be seen
from the first few doses of Mi-o-na
and its continued use will soon start
you on the road to perfect digestion
and enjoyment of food.
Mi-o-na has been so uniformly sue
cessful that every box is sold under a
positive guarantee to refund the
money if it does not relieve. What
fairer proposition could be made?
w. W. Albers gives his personal
guarantee of money back if you want
1t" with every box of Mi-o-na that he
sells. A guarantee like this speaks
volumes for the merit of the remedy.

Marvin Thearle. "She is poor, the
boy obscure and friendless. All! they
shall feel the crushing weight of my
just wrath"
Marvin Thearle sent for his man

to discharge Paul at once. What the
amazed lad felt at his causeless dis
grace may be imagined. When he
applied for recommendation two
days later, it was cruelty refused.

way lies closer to the Bulgarian line
than in any other vicinity.
The critics have been quick to seize
the absence of any activity in this
direction as an Indication as least that
southern Serbia is to be left intact
for the present while the entire
strength of both the Bulgarian and
Teutonic forces Is heuider against the
line Of the Belgrade Nish railway. This
railway separates in two lines, one
running through Serbia and Greece
to Salonica, the other turning towards
the southeast and entering Bulgarian
territory. which 1t crosses on its way
to Constantinople. For the moment it
is undoubtedly that part OF the road
which runs from Belgrade to Nish and
thence to Sofia and Constantinople,
that Is of consequence to the Germans.
And there is another reason advanced
for the apparent absence of hostilities
along the southeastern frontier Of Ser
bia. 1t IL that this section lies too
close to Greece, a country which the
Germans are endeavoring 10 placate in
every way possible Just now.

The actual entrance OF Bulgaria into

II Is bound to be such unless the Serbs
show themselves equal to the appar-
