EAT A SQUARE MEAL AND
NOT FEAR INDIGESTION

There are hundreds of people in
Norwich who were not the least bit
surprised when they read in the
Bulletin that Lee & Osgood are selling
Mi-o-na on a guarantee to refund the
money in case it did not relieve. This
remarkable dyspepsia remedy will re-
lieve the worst case of indigestion,
headache, dizziness, or the general
played-out condition that affects every
one suffering with stomach trouble.
Mi-o-na does not simply relieve, 1t
aims to cure.
Lee & Osgood can tell you of many
well known people in this city who
this remedy has restored to health,
often after they have tried many other
methods Of treatment with little or no
benefit. No other dyspepsia remedy
cures as Mi-o-na- 1t is so large that
Lee & Osgood stands ready to refund
the price to any customer whom Il
does not help.
The best kind of advertising is the
praise of a pleased customer, and
there are hundreds in Norwich today
praising Mi-o-rla because 1t does what
ago they could eat nothing without
wondering what the result would be.
Since using Mi-o-na they eat what
they want and when they want with
no fear Of suffering. This medicine
comes in the form OF a small tablet
and is very pleasant to take. II
speedily and permanently relieves al
most all forms of stomach trouble and
is the only one sold under positive
guarantee without any restriction, to
refund the money if it does not re-
lieve. This is a good time to get well
and you ought to take advantage OF
Lee & Osgoods offer.

EIGHT NEW HOUSES
To Be Erected for Help by Eclipse
Manufacturing Company.

What is believed to be the start
ing of a building boom for Putnam
has been announced in n statement
that the Eclipse Manufacturing COM
pany has bought eight house lots from
the George NJ. Morse estate and will
shortly begin to erect eight houses for
occupancy Of their help. It is under
stood that the houses will be modern
in every respect with baths, electric
lights, ETC., and a moderate rental will
be charged. This company has but
recently located here, buying the old
johnson shoe shop, and remodeling it
into a factory where ladies' skirts and
suits are manufactured. As soon as
the factory began operations help
from the company's old factory in
Philadelphia was brought here. For
long time one of the needs of this
ments for working people. There Is
scarcely an empty tenement in the
city. This at once became apparent to
the officers of the new concern when
their help complained that they could
not find homes to move their families
into. There, has been a rumor for
some time that the Eclipse company
was going to build and this has now
come to a head by a purchase of a
strip of land in the western part of
the city on a high knoll. 1t is believed
that this is but a forerunner of a
building boom that has been predict
ed for some time. 1t must come, as
factories are running full. some night
and day, and more help is needed, and
homes must be provided for them.

ROME, July o3.-The Turkish Govern
inent, in spite OF the protests OF the
Italian Ambassador. have seized an 1tal-
ian steamer at C~onstantinople and are
using IL for the transportation OF troops
across the Sea Of Marmora.
The incident is regarded here as bound
to lead to complications between italy
aud Turkey. the italian Government
being determined to resort to coercive
measures. especially since both Turkish
and German officers are being sent
openly to Tripoli.
THE SrN correspondent Is informed
that In the case of war between Italy
and Turkey the italian fleet would bonn
bard the coasts OF Asia Minor. Syria
and Arabia. and the revolt in the prov
inCe Of Yemen will be encouraged,
Thus 1t is regarded here as certain that
Italian Intervention would prove fatal
10 Turkey and the end OF the Ottoman
Empire would be fastened.
