Use Mi-o-na and Got Immediate and
Effective Relief
When you have heartburn, pains in
the stomach and taste undigested food,
it's a sure sign your last meal is not
digesting, but fermenting, causing pois
onous gases, sourness and acin stom
a.-h.
Prompt and lasting relief for any
stomach distress is a simple inexpen
sive matter if you will only try the
harmless Mi-o-na prescription easily
obtained from H. C. Kennedy or any
druggist.
Mi-o-na is especially prepared to :
neutralize excess acid and stop fermen
tation which surely sours your food,
causing sick headache, dyspepsia, bil
iousness and bad dreams.
Mi-o-ua not only corrects sour, acid,
and gassy stomach, but improves the
entire digestive system, go that the
blood, cenes, muscles and skin all re
ceive increased nourishment causing
clear complexion, brigut eyes and that
delightful sensation of "feeling fit."
Get some Mi-o-na tablets to-day—if i
they do not banish every sign of indi
gestion they will not cost you a penny. \

LATIN AMERICAN COUNTRIES j
Dr. Clayton Urges Special Study of \
<Thetn in U. S. Schools
Washington, D. C., Oot. 16.- —Special j
study of tin- countries of Latin America
in schools in the United States is urged:
|by I»r. P. P. Claxton, Commissioner of I
Education, in a letter to high school i
principals. Dr. Claxton declares:
"We should teach in our schools and!
colleges more of the geography, history,
literature, and life of the Latin-Ameri
can countries, and we should offer in
struct ion in the Spanish and Portuguese
languages to a much larger extent than
is now done.
"All our relations with the repub
lics to the south of us are bouud to
become much more intimate than they
have been in the past. The completion
ot the Panama Canal, the changes in
commercial relations brought about by
the war in Kurope, ( >s wed as other re
cent events, have served to call the at
tention of the people of the I'nited
States to the recent rapid growth and
development of" the hatin-American re
publics.
"These countries comprise an area
three times as great as the United
States. They are rich in minerals, for
ests, water power, and a wide range of
Agricultural products. They have 70,-
000.000 of people, with governments
modeled after our own. Their foreign
commerce amounts to more than $3,-
000,000,000 mutually and is rapidly
increasing.
"The third American city in popu a
tion is in I.atiu America. Another Uat
in American city has 1,000,000 inhabi
tants. Three others have approximate
Iv 500,000 each, au.i tive others have
each 200,000 or more. Some of these
cities rank among the most beautiful
and attractive in the world.
"These countries are making rapid
progress in elementary and secondary
education and in industrial education.
Several of their universities enroll from
one to 2,000 students each. The his
tory of their countries is interesting,
anil they possess a rich and varied lit
erature.
"A further reason for teaching Span
ish in out- schools more than we do is
that it is the language of one-tenth of
all the people claiming protection tin
der the American Hag, as well as of
one of the culture nations of Kurope."

and beautiful. There is a vast number
| of pale, thin, scrawny people who are

: strength and health that accompanied

j perfect health go together. A true flesh
| forming food like Samose is absolutely
necessary to many people,
j This remarkable discovery comes in
! tablet form and when taken after meals
J mingles with the food and helps it to
I assimilate so that it makes rich blood
j and pleasing plumpness.
H. ('. Kennedy has so much conti
jdence in this remarkable flesh forming
food and health restorer that he is will
ing and glad to allow any customer to
deposit 50c with him and take homo
a box of Samose with the understanding
that if it does not give a marked in
crease in good firm flesh the money will
be .returned without any questions.
