1 ast price of money and strength.
Our government admits wc art the j
worst wasters of any nation and it is !
vending a specialist into rural cominuni- I

is generally lost on the farms. This j

practical new ideas of best ways of II

'One of the messages given at this 1 <

I!rt Your Favorite Food and Never;
Fear After-Distress
There is a way for you to eat what- !
over your stomach craves. Jlany will '<
my "How I wish 1 could but I have 1
tied and every time it nearly kills me."
The veal trouble is that people who I
sutler the untold agonu of indigestion
do not realize that the stomach has
a lot of work to perform in digesting i
the food and if crowded with extra
labor it rebels and kicks up a fearful j
disturbance.
"Mi-o-na. a simple and inexpensive
prescription, easily obtained from il. C. I
Kennedy or any drug store, will quickly j
and effectively stop this disturbance or >
money refunded. It not only increases'
the flow of digestive juices, but surely
and safely builds up and strengthens
the stomach walls so that what you eat
is cared for as nature intended.
It's needless for you to suffer with
indigestion, heartburn, biliousness, sour,
gassy or upset stomach, for Mi-o-na |
tablets surely give prompt and lasting |
relief and perfectly harmless. Adv.

Roosevelt, private citizen.
Thee is the latest role that the ex
President of the United States has

is going to appear until further notice.
When reporters sought to interview
him, he said:
"1 am a private citizen of the pri
vatest sort—and I haven't a thing to
say about anything."
He meant it, too. All attempts to
get him to comment on the election or

When the Colonel was interviewed
the day after election he said that he

til they were all in. They were all in
yesterday, but he had no comment to

WEIGH YOURSELF
BEFORE USINC
Weigh yourself before commencing
to use Samose, the great flesh-forming
food. The wonderful sale of this prepa
ration since first introduced in Harris
1 burg and the remarkable results fol
lowing its use have made H. ('. Ken
: nedv such an enthusiastic believer in
! the great value of Samose that he gives
j his personal guarantee to refund the
! money if Sainose will not make thin
people fat and restore strength and
! health to those who use it.
This is a strong guarantee, but 11. C.
Kennedy has seen so many of his cus
tomers who a few weeks ago looked
like walking skeletons become plump
and well, through the use of Bai»'ose
that he feels he cannot say too much
to induce people to try it.
This marvelous flesh-forming food is
assimilated as soon as it is takeu into
the stomach, makes good rich blood,
tones up the weakened system, helps
to assimilate the food and makes the
user plump, well and rosy. Adv.

DIG UP REMAINS OF IN
WHO FELL AT GETTYSBURG
Fragments of Clothing, Boots and a
Brass Button Indicate That They
Had Been Members of the Union
Army
Gettysburg, Nov. IS. —Lying little
more than fifteen inches below the sur
face, the bones of two soldiers were
found n't the southwestern edge of
town by William H. .Johns, who is en
gaged in doing some work about his
property on Steinwehr avenue. The re
mains, it is believed, are those of two
I'nion men.
The discovery was made bv Mr.
Jones while he was digging a ditch to
lay a water pipe. The larger bones
were found, the limbs of both soldiers
being fairly well preserved. The boots
of the one were still there, though the
toes were missing, evidently cut oil" by
a plow. The land has been cultivated
for years and why the bones were not
turned up before is hard to understand.
With the bones were found part of
an 'old army hat, a number of teeth
and a brass button, indicating that, one
of the men 'belonged to a Union com
mand. No money and no personal ef
fects were found with the liones.
