Mi-0-na Does Not Relieve
Dyspepsia

Among all the remedies in R. Hold
gins's popular drug store, there are
few that he is willing to sell on a
guarantee to refund the money if they
do not cure.
Mi-o-na, the famous dyspepsia rem
edy has helped so many of his Gus
toners that he says, eff this remedy
does not relieve you, come back to my
store and / will cheerfully return your
money"
Anyone who has dyspepsia, indiges-
ton, headaches, dizzy feelings or liver
troubles, should take advantage of this
to be made well without any risk of
spending their money to no purpose.
Mi-o-na will relieve you, will regulate
the digestion, will enable you to eat
what you want. If it does not do all
this it will not cost you a cent.
r. Hodgins has sold hundreds of
boxes of Mi-o-na and has yet to re-
ceive the first complaint from any
customer. Such a record is simply
marvellous and speaks volumes for the
merit of the remedy.
Do not suffer a day longer with dis
ordered digestion. If Mona does not
give you complete satisfaction you

MINING" FOR NATURAL GAS
There Is No Other Sure Way Of Re.
vealing Its Pres
cnce

The obtaining Of natural gas is es-
sentially % mining proposition. with,
however, more unknown, mcontrol-
able and uncertain features to con-
tend with than exist in any other
class Of mining or in any other BUSH
ness. There is absolutely no certain
way Of finding natural gas the only
method to pursue is to drill holes
in the ground until field is de-
veloped. There are no sure surface
indications for guidance, although
some biologists claim that they can
locate gas. The results Of their en-
deayors, however, very rarely sub
stantiate such claims.
The first process in the work is to
send out men to secure the leases,
ii. c. Reeser writes in the National
Magazine for September. They visit
the farmers and landowners and en-
deavor to secure the gas rights on the
most favorable terms. If the terri
tory is strictly wildcat" that is,
remote from gas developments, the
land can usually be leased without
much difficulty, and at prices rang
ing from 10 to % cents an acre a
year, for say ten years, with the pro-
vision that unless oil or gas is found
in paving quantities before the ex-
piraton Of the term the lease be-
comes null and void. If. however,
q successful well is drilled during
the term of the agreement the lease
is extended for $50 long as oil or gas
is found in paying quantities"
