The many convincing testimonials con-
stantly published in the newspapers
ought to be proof enough to women who
suffer from those distressing ills pecu-
liar to their sex that Lydia E. Pinkham s

they need.
This good old root and herb remedy
has proved unequalled for these dread

HERE'S NEW VIGOR FOR
OVERWORKED sTOMACHS

F. D. Pierce the popular druggist,
has been in the drug business long
enough to have his own opinion OF
the best way of selling medicines.
He says the plan adopted by Mi-o-na
the great dyspepsia remedy, is the
fairest he has ever heard Of. He
doesn't believe that a medicine ought
to be paid for unless it does the user
some good. And Mi-o-na is sold
under positive guarantee to relieve
dyspepsia Or to refund the money
You simply leave so cents on deposit
with F. D. Pierce and If, after you
hive used the box of Mi-o-na, you
decide that it has done you no good,
all you have to do is to tell Mr.. Pierce
so and be will return your money.
Hundreds of people have been re-
lieved of stomach agonies by using
this remarkable remedy. 1t is not
simply food digester; it is medi
cine that puts all of the digestive Or
gans into normal condition and gives
ruddy, glowing and vigorous health.
A change for the better will be seen
after the first few doses of Mi-o-na,
and it's continued use will soon give
the power to eat anything at any
time and not suffer- distress afterward.
Use Mi-o-na and see how much more
there is in life.
Sold and guaranteed in Orleans by
f. j. Kinney.

The bay of Fundy forms a cul-de-sac
at which the Atlantic ocean seems to
have taken a special spite and at reg
ular intervals pours into it an enor-
nous amount Of water. Take the har-
Dor of st. John as an illustration of
what this mighty tide must be. In
most parts Of the world a tide Of ten
feet is considered something abnor-
NAL, but at st. John it rises twenty to
twenty-four feet in good weather In
stormy weather the monotony is va
ried by the high water mark being
pushed up even ten or fifteen feet
higher.
