WINTER MEAT EATING
The Poor Stomach's Tale of Woe.
Just Now m-o-na is Needed.
At this season of the year thousands
of people are already showing the ill
symptoms that are sure to result from
the usual winter diet, indoor life, meat
eating, hearty food, lack of exercise, over
work, and poor ventilation spell "sickness,"
and poor health.
If (he stomach oannut do its work
properly, ill health is sure to follow. Mi
o-na is the one medicine that assures a
natural digestion, that strengthens the
stomach, that soothes and heais all irrita
tion, congestion, and inflammation in the
stomach and bowels. It is this that
makes it a certain and guaranteed cure
for all stomach troubles.
If the digestion is impaired, the blood
is impoverished and becomes filled with
poisonous impurities, deranging the whole
system and causing sickness and suffer
ing. Mi-o-na, acting upou the stomach
and digestive organs cures sleeplessness,
nervous troubles, headaches, backaches,
and general weakness and debility.
It you are weak and ailing the chances
are that it is due to a diseased stomach,
but you can be cured by using Mi-o-na.
Ask L. Taggart, the reliable druggist, to
show you the stromg guarantee under
which Mi-o na is sold. Mi-o-na costs but
50c a box. If it does not help you, the
price is absolutely nothing.
Our idea of a bread-winner is a girl
who takes the cake.'
