10 GRAVES GIVEN SECRET ORDERS LNRUSS PLANS Secretary Baker Confers With General Chosen to Command American Forces Washington, 9. Confidential instructions were handed to Major General William S. Graves, at City, Tuesday, by Secretary of War Baker covering the American mili tary expedition to Siberia which General Graves will command. Mr. Baker on his return to Washington to day disclosed that the object his trip was to confer with General Graves, who had been summoned from Camp Fremont, to meet him at Kansas City.

The Secretary said he assumed that 'a Japanese officer would be the rank ing officer of the inter Allied forces sent to Siberia and would preside at any conference of the various commanders. No step toward the selection of a commander for the entire army has been taken, he added. Information row available indicates that the Japanese will send a lieutenant General in command of the Japanese forces, which probably will exceed slightly in numbers the American contingent. The American forces probably will number less than 10, 000 under present plans. It was originally planned that General Baron Uyehara, chief of staff of the Japanese Army, would head Japan's force as senior officer of the expedition.

Owing to the smallness of the force to be sent at first this idea was abandoned. The total number of troops, it is estimated here will number approximately 15,000 at "the beginning of the operations.

The supply was exhausted Take a Sunshine Tablet for Thy Stomach's Sake There never was such a marveloui prescription for stomach, distress and indigestion as Mi na. No doctor ever wrote a better one; it's doubtful if any doctor ever will.

It's so good that H. C. Kennedy says money back if doesn't relieve. A woman in Maine calls Mi na the sunshine prescription because she has seen so many sour, miserable, aggravating dyspeptics turned into happy, cheerful, sweet human beings in a few days by taking Mi na. The stomach is responsible for three fourths of the nervousness and naif the misery of the worlti.

A woman can have a first class stomach and yet be miserable if she has a husband who is a nervous dyspeptic. If you have indigestion, belching of gas, heaviness after eating, drowsy sensation after eating, sour stomach or any miserable stomach disturbance the prescription called Mi na will put you right, and bring sunshine into your life in a week. A large box of Mi na tablets cost only 60 cents at H. C. Kennedy's and by leading druggists everywhere.

They are small and easy to swallow. To Chronic Dyspeptics: You can eat what you like if you take Bi nesia. Make this test: Eat a hearty meal of the good things that usually disagree with you, then take two or three BNnesia Tablets. If you aren't astonished and delighted you can have your money back for the asking. Get a EOc bottle to day from Geo.

A. Gorges or any other good druggist; use as directed, and you will soon be telling your friends how you get rid of indigestion.
