A SAFE WAY TO
STOP INDIGESTION
Without Fear of Weakening the Stom
ach. Works Fine in Any Case and
Brings Relief in Teg Minutes
The greatest folly of to-day is com
mitted by people with weak dyspeptic
stomachs who take artificial digesters
to cure indigestion.
Artificial digesters—pepsin, pills, etc.
-i —simply encourage a lazy or tired out
stomach to shirk its work by doing most
of its work for it. This is fine for a
time but as every chronic dyspeptic
knows, artificial digesters soon lose
their efficiency. Where one once did
the trick -three or four are now required
and the poor old stomach itself is worsij
off than ever.
Your stomach must be strong enough
to expand and contract with a sort of
churning movement so as to mix its
digestive juices with your food. If
your stomach isn't strong enough to
properly chum your food, you will keep
right on having indigestion after every
meal until voir make it strong.
There is one Stomach remedy that
every dyspeptic can depend on as surely
as that the sun will rise to-morrow and
that is the famous old MI-O-NA Stom
ach Tablets. Most stomach remedies let
the stomach rest and digest the food
themselves. Mi-o-na won't digest any
thing but it will strengthen and stimu
late the stomach and make it do its own
digesting. It stops stomach pains, gas,
bloating, burning, belching, etc., in ten
minutes and does still better by making
the flabby, inflamed and inactive stom
ach walls grow strong'and elastic and
able to do their own churning. Mi-o-na
Tablets sever lose Hftir effect and un
like mprl artificial digesters need not
be used forever. A few weeks' use is
generally sufficient to put any stomach
in fine shape and H. C. Kennedy and
many other leading druggists here
abouts sell it with that understanding,
agreeing to refund money to anyone
who does not get complete relief.—Adv.
