the plan adopted by Mi-o-na, the great

don't believe that a medicine ought to
be paid for unless it does the user
some good. And so Mi-o-na is always

after you have used the box of Mi-o-

they have been relieved of stomach
agonies by using this remarkable rem
edy. 1t is not simply a food digester:
It is a medicine that puts all of the
digestive organs into normal condition
and CITES ruddy, glowing, vigorous
health. A change for the better will
be seen after the first few doses of
Mi-o-na, and its continued use will
soon give the power to eat most any

the prophecy that the productive ca
pacity of the United States will have
been increased by 1917 at the rate of
four million tons annually. Apart
from the direct effects of the Euro

tremendous impetus by the orders

to the rafters. They damned
the aisles, and then Colonel Luce
let them get down in the arena
to find seats on the field guns
which line the. hall.
It was the last mobilization
of the First regiment, the last
review, according to Colonel
Luce, who declared that within
80 days the regiment either will
be at the Mexican border on pa
troll duty or will have come un-
der operation of the national
guard liberalization act. He
takes for granted it will pass
and he says that the militia
wants to be federalized.
