Rare Animal Dies in Zoo.

The female okapi, an extremely rare animal, half zebra, half antilope, died recently at the Antwerp geological gardens, whose pride it had been for two months. The only specimen oe it's kind and brought to Europe from the forests of Africa. The okapi never be- came acclimatized, although it's Cslar- ters were maintained at temperature of 45 degrees (C). The animals body will be set up near the stuffed male okapi, killed a few years ago in Africa, the chief curiosity of the Tervueren in Antwerp. The short existence of the okapi at Antwerp will prove, however, to have been useful to science, our zoologists having identified the animal as one of an ancient, vanished race, which had survived from prehistoric times in Africa. Ironical persons now suggest that the Antwerp okapi, ac- | customed to the vast, peaceful soli- tudes of it's native habitat, really sue | cumbed to the spectacle of disturbing violence.

 sented to it by world turned upside l down.-LIllustratio Paris

Power in a Radium Watch.

If you own radium- dial watch with luminous figures and hands, then you are the possessor of a vast power plant of no mean proportions, says the Elec- trical Experimenter. There is suffi- cient radium on your watch dial to haul your train homeward, if it could be properly applied.
 As the matter stands, the innocent looking radium dial does not seem to possess any extraordinary amount of concentrated energy, but this is only apparently the case, and not actually so, for the reason that while the radi- um paint on the dial is small, this ef- feet will keep up for twenty-f five hun dred years, provided the zinc sulphide with which the radium is mixed so as to produce glow, held out that long The zinc sulph:de in most cases give: out in about eight or ten years.
 Now, if we could but find way tt make the radium release all it's energ!

Don't Spoil a Good
 Meal With a Bad Stomach

It is really pitiful sight to see so many thousands of people worrying about what they can eat and what they can't eat.
 Dyspeptics, they call themselves, but they stretch the imagination when they do it.
 All these people need to make them healthy, cheerful and of sound appetite is a box of Mi-O-Na Tablets.
 The stomach of a dyspeptic is over worked and run down. It needs help to digest the food, but more than that it needs a prescription that will cleanse, renovate, strengthen and put elasticity into the stomach walls.
 Mi-O-Na is the prescription that will do this and do it so promptly that you'll wonder why you didn't try it before.
 It stops belching of gas and distress after eating in five minutes. It is un- doubtedly the greatest stomach tonic ever given to the public by a specialist in stomach diseases.
 Leading druggists everywhere and Lee & Osgood Co. sell Mi-O-Na for 50 cents a large box on the money back plan.
