THE SMOKE HOUSE PROTECT TOOflSELF gSglXST 6EEPIS. People With Weak Stomachs Most Liable to Catch Disease. When the stomach and digestive organs are weak, the food does not digest, and there is a sour, slimy, fermenting mass, making it an ideal spot for the disease germs to multiply.

The only way to protect yourself against disease germs is to strengthen the stomach and digestive organs, and Mi-o-na is the only agent, so far as is known, that will accomplish this. The ordinary medicine that is taken for indigestion and stomach troubles is advertised to act upon the food alone, and hence can give no more than temporary relief. Mi-o-na is a certain cure for all cases of stomach troubles, excepting cancer, because it enables the stomach and digestive organs to act in the way Nature intended they should. Drugs cannot digest the food; they simply decompose it. If you suffer with distress after eating, pains in the head, chest, sides and back, belching of gases and undigested food, bad taste in the mouth, dizziness or vertigo, heartburn, variable appetite, sick headache, spots before the eyes, and have a general feeling of despondency, weakness, and debility you should at once strengthen the stomach and digestive system by the use of Mi-o-na.

There is no liquid, no alcohol, no spoonful doses with Mi-o-na. Just one simple tablet out of a fifty cent box before eating, and your stomach will soon become so strong and healthy that you will be germ proof. Ask W. H. Somermier to show you the guarantee under which he sells Ml-o-na; costs nothing unless it cures.

Paying Oft Bonds. Treasurer Smith has paid off of the county indebtedness since he took charge of the office of county treasurer $190,000 in bonds. $100,000 of these were drawing four and one-half cent interest and $90,000 were drawing four per cent interest. This saves the county the sum of in interest each year. The present bonded indebtedness of this county is $136,500 and $29,500 is held by eastern parties and draws seven per cent interest.

They will not put a price on these bonds, and they have five more years to run. One hundred and seven thousand dollars are held by the state school fund and draw four per cent and can be paid off at any interest payment. The payment of these bonds ha been brought about by the levy each year of five mills sinking fund, and this was commenced in 1899. That year the interest levy was three and one-half mills and this year it is one and three-tenths. The county treasurer recently remitted $30,000 to the state school fund at Topeka to take up county bondo drawing four per cent interest, held by the school fund.

Shot While Huntiaz. Ernest Hathaway, a sixteen-year old boy who lives at 718 East Third street, Winfleld, was accidently shot and seriously wounded Monday while hunting. The charge from a shot gun he was carrying and discharged by striking his leg against the hammer, entered his left breast and penetrated the lung. It is of such a serious nature that death may result. The young man was brought to town immediately after the accident and taken to St.

Mary's hospital. Drs. Emerson, Jacobus and Pickens performed an operation to remove the shot and dress the wound. The result of the accident cannot be foretold at this writing. L.
