Inside Information Ledger Readers Chance for Profit—Everyone Ought to Grasp This Opportunity. To Lave even a simple case of In digestion Is to have “Inside Infor mation” of suffering that warns of serious trouble in the future, unless the digestive system Is strengthened. If you cannot eat and digest three good, square and satisfying meals each day without discomfort,* your stomach needs Mi-o-na tablets. They are not a mere temporary relief, but are composed of valuable medicinal agents which strengthen the digest ive organs, and cure and prevent stomach troubles. When there are pains or distress after eating, head aches, belching of gases, a sour taste in the mouth, diz ziness, heart burn, specks before the eyes, furred tongue, sleeplessness, nervousness, or back ache, the stom ach needs the help of Mi-o-na. Every reader of The Ledger should grasp the opportunity offered by the Gaffney Drug Co. to try Mi-o-na at their risk. Just one little tablet out of a 50-cent box of this remedy before each meal for a few days, and you will soon have a strong stomach and per fect health. Ask Gaffney Drug Co. to show you the guarantee under which thev sell Mi-o-na. This valuable remedy costs you nothing unless It restores health.

Wants Representation. (Blacksburg Chronicle.) Since Broad river makes such a distinct harrier between the two sides of Cherokee county, we cannot see why his excellency, the Hon. Governor of our State, when making his ap pointments for such positions as Na tional Farmers’ Congress should not select at least one man from over here. Such representative farmers as Dr. Jno. G. Black, E. R. Sapoch, J. D. Kennedy, Dr. D. S. Ramseur, Dr. J. M. Caldwell, Andrew J Goforth, Mr. R. S. Mintz, and such men would make splendid representatives. While we know that “the other side” has fine men and that the gentlemen already appointed will represent the county as well as any men in it, still we claim that “our side of the branch’ ought to have representation.
