These last years I had to call a doctor every week, besides taking doctors medicine all the time. My food would ferment and there was so much gas in my stomach I couldn’t vomit, and the doctor had to work for over an hour before I could get teUef. Doctor put me on diet lor over one year and I guess I have tried every doctor in town. They all told me, it would take otje year to get w ell providing I just ate a milk diet. That was the encouragement they gave me. I could not do my work; had to have a girl. So weak at times could not get up or down stairs. I tried every thing I heard of. At last I saw Mi-o-na advertised, and thought I would try that. 1 didn’t have any faith in it whatever.

HOTEL ENTERTAINING IN NEW YORK GUESTS OF ST. REGIS MAY EN TERTAIN FRIENDS THERE AS PERFECTLY AS AT HOME Formerly all hotel life spelled "cheerlessness,” and conditions have changed but little today in that class of hotels where the rooms consist of straight rows of narrow, comfort less and box-like bedrooms. At such hotels guests sleep and get out; they do not “live” there. At the St Regis, located at Fifth Avenue and Fifty fifth Street, New York City—admit tedly the most exquisitely arranged and furnished hotel in America —the features of hotel living with home comforts and privacy, and facilities for the entertainment of friends, have been carried to an extent that places this hotel in a class by itself. A week or a month spent in the metropolis during the opera season, the horse show, at Easter, and at other times, will be much more fully enjoyed if one is able to make some suitable re turn for the hospitalities of resident friends. At the St. Regis this is possi ble under conditions equal, if not su perior, to those of the highest class private residences. Guests can be af forded facilities for entertaining friends in any manner that heart can wish, from a quiet tete-a-tete luncheon to an elaborate formal dinner. The famous cuisine of the St. Regis, equal in all respects to the most celebrated restaurants of Europe, lends Itself admirably to such arrangements, and its prices are no higher than any other first class ho tel. Rborn rates at the St. Regis are likewise low: $3 to $4 a day for a commodious and luxuriously furnished single room; the same with private bath for $5 a day (or $6 for two peo ple); or $l2 a day and up for a sup erb suite of parlor, bedroom and pri vate bath.
