"Mr. Conder was a member of the Pythian and Masonic orders of this place, and in reply to a message sent by Mr. J. F. Har relson on 20th he received a tel egram the following day from Augusta, saying that Mr. Con- ddr had several checks on his person and something like $100 in cash when he left that city. He also had a ticket over the Southern to this place. His disappearance is a complete mystery, but it is suspected that h e has met with foul play. Every effort possible is being made to find some trace of him NOTABLE MEDICAL DISCOVERY Or Special Value to Many Here la Gastonia. One of the most notable dis coveries and one that undoubt edly appeals more than anything else to m&ny people here in Gas tonia is the combination of stom ach remidies in the ,Mi-o-na treatment. This prescription has worked wonders, and there is now no excuse for anyone suf fering with indigestion or weak stomach. . It acts specifically upon the muscles of the stomach and bow els, stiengthening and stimulat ing them so that they readily take care of the food that is eaten. It also increases the fl6w of gastiic juices, thus getting from the food the nourishru that is necessary for healtf energy. The symptoms of mdigf are numerous, such as distress" after eating, flatulence, heart burn, sick headaches, dizziness and irritability. These are all dispelled by a few doses of Mi- o-na when the trouble is recent, but just as surely in long stand ing atrd chronic cases if the treatment is followed for a rea sonable length of time. So positive are the good ef fects following the use of Mi o na that the remedy is sold by J. H. Kennedy & Co. under an ab solute guarantee to refund the money if it should fail to cure. 25-1.
