THE WEATHER EXPLAINED.
Captain of a Ship Reports That the
Sea is Almost Bolling Hot.
Our ’ oldest Inhabitants” ^re won-
dor.'ng at the peculiarities of the
weather. They cannot remember a
time when January weather like that
which we have experienced for the
past two weeks prevailed. * Capt
Chaplain of the British steamer Shi-
niosa. Just In at New York from the
Carrlbe^n, offers a possible explana
tion. He says the sea Is literally
fllted with hot water, and that It Is
almost a-boiling In the gulf stream.
He Q<eft the stream to escape the
heat, but when ho got Into the green
water he found the heat no less op
pressive. He dropped a thermom
eter over tho side at the end of;*
line, and after leaving It In the wa^
ter an hour found It registered some
thing above 60 degrees. The normal
temperature At this season should
be 3 degrees or less. The atmos
pheric temperature should have been
htlow the freezing point. “We t could

cious, in the case of Dan Owens, who
Is now ln the hospital at Buford. The
eruptions /ppeared on bis body Sun
day at 12 o’clock. Monday evening
the medicine was administered ac
cording to direction. On Thuh^i
evening the pustules were about all
cured up, and the medicine discontln
ued. There were no ill effects, but
on the contrary, the patient’s* throat
was entirely well within four hours
after beginning its use.
As the editor of The Plow Boy, and
the mayor of Buford, we can commend
this recipe as the most valuable dis
covery of the age. It cured our pa
tient In three days, and we behove,
had it been begun on Sunday whon
the pustules first appeared, truly '.here
would be no use for hospitals. Try It
and be convinced.

porary relief, if leaves the digestive
system weaker than ever, and the tab
lets must be continued with increased
frequency.
The only way to permanently cure
stomach troubles is by strengthening
the digestive organs with a Ml-o-na
stomach tablet taken before meals.
In this way the remedy prepares the
stomach for the food and excites the
secretion of gastric juices so that
when the food is eaten, the stomach
Is prepared to digest It.
If Mi-o-na was a mere digestive, It
would be taken after eating, so as to
mix with the food, but them perma
nent relief would not be gained.
Ml-o-na stomaoh tablets are sold on
ly ln a neat metal box, convenient for
the purse or vest pocket, and cost
but 50c. A. E. Dimmock has seen
so many cures made by Mi-o-na stom
ach tablets that they give a guarantee
with every box that the money will
be refunded If the remedy fails to
give satisfaction. You run mo risk
in using Ml-o-na, for you are sure to
be cured at trifling expense, or else
your money will be returned.
