IF YOU SUFFER ANY STOMACH AGONY

Take Mi-o-na Now Perfectly Harmless, But Acts Quickly and Effectively.

When you feei nervous, blue, irritable, tired and dizzy—when you have headaches, sour stomach, heartburn and pains in the colon and bowels—you are suffering from indigestion you need Mi-o-na at once.

Mi-o-na is not a cure-all, but a specific for stomach ills—it goes to the seat of the trouble and surely ends stomach misery. It builds up and strengthens the stomach walls and glands, improves quickly the digestive system and assists nature to properly digest and assimilate the food thus insuring good health —you are free of the blues life really seems worth while.

Do not suffer another day. Get a 50-cent box of Mi-o-na Tablets at Earlys' drug store, or your nearest drug store. Keep them with you constantly—they will help you get well and strong and immediate relief is sure. Do not delay—delays are dangerous and needless. If not ^benefited. Mi-o-na costs nothing.

HORSES IRE RURNED TO DEATH

Car Load of Animals in Spectacular Railroad Fire at Dunreith— Some Animals Saved.

Five horses were burned to death and twenty-three other badly injured Saturday night, when a palace horse car caught fire west of Dunreith. The express car was attached to train No. 20., running from St. Louis to Pittsburgh, and was fired from sparks from one of the -engines hauling the train.

The engineer on the head engine was the first to discover the fire, and stopped the train. The flames were rolling high and five of the animals were dead when the train stopped. The horse car was cut from the train, and the crew and /passengers devoted their efforts to -putting out the fire. In the meantime the doors were opened, and the horses yet living were driven from the car. Some of them leaped to the track with their manes and tails aflame. Others were cut and lacerated badly in jumping from the car. One or two of the horses escaped entirely, and had not been "found up to a late hour.

The company sustained a severe loss, and the animals alive were sent back to Indianapolis, sorrylooking specimens. They had been shipped by an Indianapolis firm to the eastern markets, and among the lot were several light harness racing animals.

Miss Pearl Burk, Mr. and Mrs. Orville Burk, Mr. and Mrs. James A. Steele, of Indianapolis, spent SUIJday in this city the guest of Mrs. ,Sadie Burk. 1

STARTER !S CHOSEN FOR 900 NILE RICE

Tom Hay, of Chicago, Chosen By Fisher—Were Boyhood Friends in Old "High-Wheel" Days

Indianapolis, April 21. An attachment formed in the old days of high-wheel bicycle riding today resulted in the appointment of Tom Hay, of Chicago, as starter for the next Indianapolis 500-mile race. Mr. Hay and Carl G. Fisher, president of the Hoosier race-course, were bosom friends when the pneumatic game was yet in its infancy. With the passing of time, the platonic relationship then formed has not been forgotten, so that today, with both men at the height of their career, one seeks the other as his chief assistant in the greatest race of the era.

Other officials for the next fivecentury contest are rapidly being selected. Dave Boecroft, of Chicago a veteran arbiter of a thousand speed battles, has been chosen as acting representative of the American Automobile Association, with F. E. Edwards and A. R. Pardington mentioned for the remaining major positions of referee and technical examiner. During the race. Boecroft will be in absolute control, the speedway ceding the reins of management with the firing of the starting bomb.

Position during the flying start is to be determined by the speed of cars in elimination trials, thus putting the fastest machines in front, where they will not have to thread I heir way through the slower members of the field to get away. This announcement is official.

In times past, there has been considerable danger of accident, due to the congest ion caused by thirty cars jockeying for place at the send-off. A spill at this stage would involve not only one. but three or four machines. Richard Kennerdell, contest chairman of the American Automobile Association, first conceived the present plan of insuring safety, final indorsement being rendered by Fisher. Advertisement.

SAYS TROUBLE IS SERIOUS

Hancock County Man Tells of the Mexican Border Trouble and of Crops There.

Ila B. Wilson, who recently returned from the Mexican border in Texas, in poor health, and who will live in Green township with Mrs. Margaret Wilson, says the Mexican situation along the border is much worse than Qeople generally know about. That robbing and killing is going on without any adequate protection. Mr. Wilson is in hopes that the situation will clear up now. In speaking of crops, he said they had a fine winter for vegetables, cabbage making about 15 tons per acre, at $20 a ton onions made from 400 to 700 bushels at $1.50 to $3.00 a crate lettuce sold at $1 a hamper cauliflower as high as $400 an acre: spinach made about 100 bushels to the acre, and brought $10 a barrel: strawberries sold as high as 50c a quart. This is why the land in the Rio Grande Valley is so high priced, he says.

Children's Diseases Very Prevalent. Whooping cough is about everywhere. Measles and scarlet fever almost as bad. Use Foley's Honey and Tar Compound for inflamed throats and coughing. Mrs. I. C. Hostler, Grand Island, Neb., says: "My three children had severe attacks of whooping cough, and a very few doses of Foley's Honey and Tar gave great relief." Zike's Drugstore. Advertisement-F

Why It Suits Particular People Foley's Honey and Tar Compound is prompt and effective for coughs, colds, croup, hoarseness, bronchial coughs and throat troubles. Thos. Verron, Hancock, Mich., writes: "Foley's Honey and Tar quickly relieves tickling throat and stops the cough with no bad after effect.' It contains no opiates and is pure. That's why it suits particular people. H.. H. Zike. Advertisement-F

FOUNTAINTOWN WOMAN FOUND DEAD IN BED

Sudden Death of Mrs. Melvina McNamara—Husband Met Violent Death Seven Years Ago

Mrs. Melvina McNamara, age 67, was found dead in bed Sunday evening about 5:30 by her daughter, Mrs. Jesse Junkins, of near Fountaintown, with whom the aged lady lived, says the Shelbyville Republican. Death, it is believed, was due to heart trouble. A physician who was called, stated that death had probably occurred two hours before the body was discovered. Mrs. McNamara, in the last few weeks, had been enjoying fairly good health, and the news of her death came as a great shock to a large number of her friends.

For some time she had been ill, but several weeks ago had gone to Martinsville to regain her lost health and strength. When she returned she said that she was much better and had not complained. On Sunday she ate a big dinner. After dinner, as was her custom, she went to her room for a nap. When evening arrived and the mother had not appeared, the daughter went to look for her and found the dead body on the bed.

Mrs. McNamara had lived all her life in this county. She was a member of Fountaintown M. E. church and had been for many years. She was the widow of the late Jerry McNamara who fell from a hay mow and broke his neck about seven years ago. Mrs. McNamara is survived by Mrs. Junkins, four sons, Cal and John McNamara. of near here Allie. of near New Palestine, and Ira. now making his home in Washington state: three daughters, Mrs. Mary Miller and Mrs. Hayden Noe, living in the neighborhood in which their mother lived, and Mrs. Steve Karr, of Rushville: also one sister, who makes her home with her daughter at Morristown, and whom Mrs. McNamara visited last Thursday.

Case was Dismissed.

The case of Frank Haltery vs. Maurice Donelly for damages, which was begun in the Circuit Court on Monday, was dismissed after the trial was begun.

FLY SWATTING TIME

lias Now Arrived One Swat Now Equal to Hundreds Later.

The time to swat the fly is when it is "few and far between''—now. This is no paradox it is the epitome of scientific fly-killing. One of the old buzzing-around. left over broody houseflies swatted now is worth a thousand swatted in midsummer— after the child has typhoid and the old manure heap is turning out new flies' like "sands of the sea." It is this way: One of those female ancestresses of a family of improved houseflies is capable of laying little batches of 150 eggs at a sitting. And that is not all. She produces some five or six of those little clutches of eggs before she goes the way of all flesh. And each one of those eggs hatches —and those flies lay 150 more and they hatch and—well, figure it out for yourself. It is a whole houseful of houseflies.

Must Be a Candidate

In speaking of criticisms on the modern way in which women dress, a man said the other day: "I have been living a little over forty years now, and can not remember back to the time when men, especially preachers, did not criticise the way the women dress. Wili the men ever get anything new to talk about? As a matter of fact, the garb of women has improved steadily since the days of the hoop-skirt and is prettier today than ever before." Next.
