overtaken by a shot from a 30-30

quarters and disabled him so that the

end to his thieving. We hope that
they may have the luck to kill coy
otes until there will not be one left
to give their usual howl. Who will
take the next scalp?

AN OPEN LETTER
To the Editor of the Courier, and I Want
the People of Oregon City to Know that
I Wrile the Following Voluntarily.
Harry L. Goodlel.
I write these few lines ont of grati
tude for what Mi-o-ua has done for
me for dyspepsia and indigestion.
I have Buffored for the past five
years aud have tried different doctors,
but have had no relief until I bought
afiO oont box of Mi-o-ua from our
drug store (R. W. Knowlton's) here
a short time ago.
The first box did me so much good
that I immediately purchpsed another
one, aud now I feel better than I have
at any time in the past five years.
Am able to eat anything aud every
thing, aud get a good night's sleep
afterwards.
Was so bad at one time that all I
was able to eat for over a month was
a raw egg in a half a glass of milk,
two or three times a day.
I would earnestly advise anyone
suffering as I was from dyspepsia to
give this remedy a fair trial. I re
main gratefully yours, Harry L.
Goodiol, No. V4 River St., Astabnln,
O.
Mi-o-na is the ruly logical dyspop
sia remedy on the market today. It is
not a digester. It does not oontain a
particle ot pepsin. It cures by build
ing np the mnsculnr walls of the
stomach, and making the stomach so
strong and perfect that it is ablo
without artificial help to digest an
oridnary meal with ease and without
discomfort.
The experience of Mr. Goqdiel is a
common one, and it is snfo to eif that
Mi-o-na tablets have cured more acute
aud chronic diseases of the stomach
than any other medicine. Jones Drug
Co. soils it at r0 cents a box, and
guarantees it to cure or money back.
Members of the legislative ' com
mittee of the Oregon Good Roads As
sociation and State Grange, appointed
at a largely attended state conference,
have gone to Portland to spend a full
day, for the third tiuio in the past
two months, in order that they might
agree upon such a bill as could be
brought before the legislature and be
come a law withont unnecessary de
lay. Medicine That Is Medicine.
"1 have suffered a good deal with
malaria and stomach complaints, but
I have now found a remedy that keeps
me well, and that remedy is Kleotrio
Bitters; a medicine that is medicine
for stomach and liver troubles and for
rnn-down conditions," says W. O.
Kiestler, of Halliday, Ark. .Eleetrio
Bitters purify and enrich the blood,
tone np the nerves, and impart vigor
Biid energy to the weak. Your money
will be refunded 'it it fails to help
yon. 50o at Jones Drug Co. 's drug
