DO YOU FEEL HGADACHY?
LOOK TO YOUR STOMACH

It is an unusual thing for q druggist
to sell medicine under guarantee to
refund the money if it does not cure.
Yet this is the ways Fisher Bros, The
popular druggists, are selling Mi-o-na,
the standard dyspepsia remedy.
Never before have they had so large
number:of customers tell them that a
medicine. has been so successful as with
Mi-o-na. People who few months
ago looked like walking skeletons have
put on1-fesh and today are rudy and
vigorous with perfect digestion and
good heath.
There is no longer any need for any
one suffering or making their friends
suffer on account of dyspepsia. Mi-o-na
can always be relied upon. The per-
centage of cures is so great that there
is little risk to Fisher Bros. in guaran-
tecing toreturn the money if the medi-
enc does not relieve. And they stand
ready 10 d } so without any questions.
Headaches. all forms of indigestion,
specks before the eyes, dizzy feelings,
and all forms Of liver trouble are help
ed by Mi-o-na. A few days treatment
should show considerable gainssin health
while complete cure often 1follows
rapidly. ADV.

For life is sweet.

For life is sweet.
And when one has reached the zenith O
life
Where loving works and deeds of kline
ness
Marked the pathway all along
Happy always Is the verdict
"Such life should ought be long"
From every nook and corner
Fond memories peep at me
And in each room things seem so real
The things that used to be.
And as | see the shadows creeping
Creeping slowly from the west
feel that those with silver helmets
Should pause while and take a rest.
Let US bask within the shadows
Radiate our love with smiles
See the earth in all its beauty
Life is such a little while.
Where is the heart that feels today
The same old Christmas thrill
The air we breathe seems heavier
We feel some longing still.
To me it seems that life is love
That all discord should cease,
Then let us pray, and fervently
For Jeace, for world wide peace.

For many years Mrs. c. w. Sergeant,
formerly Miss Maude Bruce, and wife
of the street commissioner Of this city,
has been troubled by gradually failing
sight and she has been compelled to
wear glasses since early girihood.
A few months ago, Mrs. Sergeant
was in a runaway. She was thrown
out and her head struck the thills.

A few days after the accident, Mrs.
Sergeant noticed that her eyes were
not troubling her nearly as much and
they gradually became better, until
she has been able to discard her glasses
entirely. and she now can see splendid

1t is supposed that her partial loss
of sight was caused by some nerve

out Of place, and the recent accident
caused a return Of normal functions

START FIRES FOR EXCITEMENT,
Two Young Men Confess to Number Of
6lazss in Atlantic.


Atlantic, July 30.-There have been
a number Of incendiary fires in the
local Burlington yards within the last
year, which have been under investiga-
ton. Two young men. Oscar Rosenow
and c. L. Lindall yesterday. upon being
examined regarding the fires, are al
legged to have confessed that they were
guilty Of setting some of them. Both
are young men, Rosenow being only II
years old and Lindall 10 years old. 1t
is thought that these young men, who
are both employees at the Burlington
shops, set the fires for the purpose Of
causing some excitement and so that
they could get a couple Of hours off
work. It Is believed that there are
other young men connected with the
affair, but as yet they have not been
apprehended. Both Rosenow and Lin
dali told good straight story, the Of
fcers say. and although neither Of
them was placed under arrest, Lindall
voluntarily went to the county jail.
Rosenow was permitted to go to his
home owing to the distracted condi-
ton Of his mother.
