It has, beyond any question of a doubt, the largest and best reservoir. It uses about half the fuel used on other ranges, and does better work by far. The Majestic All Copper Nickeled lleservoir heats the water quicker and hotter than any other. It is the only reservoir with a removable frame. The Charcoal Iron body of the great Majestic Range lasts three times as long as a steel body. Roing made of non breakable ma terial, there is practically no ex pense for repairing tho Majestic. As for breaking, it is perfection, not only for a few months, but for all time to come. A Great Majestic Range lasts three times as long as a cheap range, but it don't cost three times as much. ^ PROOF-We c on't ask you to take our word 1 for any of the above statements, but if you will call at our store, a man from the factory, where Majestic Ranges are made, will prove to your satisfaction, that these are absolute facts, and will show you many more reasons why the Great Majestic Rauge is absolutely the best that money can buy. ! ! !

We rush through life without taking time to eat, sleep or play, and as a result this is an age of indigestton. nervousness, irrita bility, sleeplessness and debility. The national danger is stomach weakness, due to the strenuous life. With the discovery of Mi o-na, which strengthens the stomach muscles and stimulates secretion of the digestive juices so that the stomach does its work as it should, there is no longer any excuse for indigestion. Mi-o-na never fails to cure stomach troubles, and is sold in 50-cent boxes by Hood Bros., with a guarantee to refund the money if it does not give com plete satisfaction. Beasley Bits. Messrs. N. T.
