t. II. Thomas Remarkable Way of Selling
Mio-na the Flesh Forming Food.

Just ask Druggist -, nOma> what he
thinks of Mi-o-na. 1t will not take
you long to ask him, but it will take
him some time to tell YOU all the good
,hin"s he knows Of this remarkable
Aesh-fCrming food.
1t is natural for people to doubt. but
when Druggist Thomas frankly offers
to buy back all empty boxes when
Nj o-na fails To restore health and in
crease the weight. and return the full
amount of money paid. II silences the
doubters and they cannot help but feel
that Mi-o-na is an unusual and re
markable preparation. Used for a
little while. this flesh forming food
will show that it actually furnishes
real nuurishment. regulates digestion
and increases weight.
Weigh yourself and then begin lis
use and the scales will soon shO&
the good Mi-o-na * doing. Ii gives
strength and tCne to the digestive
organs, makes rich, red blood and
puts the whole system in proper
physical condition. If il did not do
what i claimed for it. Druggist Thorn
as could not afford To sell it the way
he does. agreeing to refund the cost,
soc. in case ii does not give complete
satisfaction.
Every one who i thin. weak and
cut Of health. should begin the use
Of Mi-o-na on these terms, for its
costs absolutely nothing unless il
makes YOU well.
