Here's New Vigor For
Overworked Stomachs
—
Hundreds of the best druggists who
have been in the drug business long
enough to have their own opinion of
the best way of selling medicines sav
the plan adopted by Mi-o-na, the great
dyspepsia remedy, is the fairest they
ever heard of. The Mi-o-na people
don't believe that a medicine ought to
be paid for unless it does the user
some good. And so Mt-o-na is always
sold under a positive guarantee to re
lieve dyspepsia or to refund the money.
You simply leave 50 cents on deposit
with your druggist and if. after you
have used the box of Mi-o-na, you de
cide that it has done you no good, all
you have to do is to tell him so and
he will return your monev.
Hundreds of people can tell how thev
have been relieved of stomach agonies
by using this remarkable remedy. It
Is not simply a food digester; it is a
medicine that puts all of the digestive
organs into normal condition and gives
ruddy, glowing, vigorous health. A
change for the better will be seen after
the first few doses of Mi-o-na, and its
continued use will soon give the power
to eat most anything at any time and
not suffer distress afterward.
Mi-o-na is sold under'a positive guar
antee to refund the monev it it does
not stop all stomach distress. This is
the strongest proof that can be ottered
as to the merit of the medicine.
Nothing lessens a man's success in
his work or a woman's fascinating per
sonality more than a weak stomach,
with its attending evils. Use Mi-o-na
and see how much more there is in life.
Get it from H. C. Kennedy or anv lead
ing druggist in this vicinity.—Adver
tisement.
Men's Overcoats
When men see the unusual materials—the
large assortment, the splendid tailoring of
the coats this store shows, they will be unani
mous in the opinion that Schleisner's is the
store for their winter coat —
The loose coat as well as the
close fitting is shown.

WHAT CAUSES COLDS?
This question is asked every day.
A cold is really a fever, not always
caused by the weather but often due to
disordered blood or lack of important
food-elements. In changing seasons
fat-foods are essential because they
distribute heat by enriching the blood
and so render the system better
able to withstand the varying elements.
This is the important reason why
Scott's Emulsion should always be
taken for colds, and it does more—
builds strength to prevent sickness.
Scott's Emulsion contains Nature's
rare strength-building fats, so skillfully
blended that the blood profits from I
every drop. It is free from harmful
drugs or alcohol. Sold at drug stores
—always get the genuine.
