Gained a Pound a Week.

Brooklyn, says: My daughter has gained
over a pound week since she began TAX
ing Mi-o-na. Her appetite is good and she
enjoys her food very much. Her face and
limbs are filling out, and she has good
color. She has also regained her spirits,
while she used to be SO melancholy that
I thought at times she would lose her
mind. For a long while she was quite
weak, and her nerves so shattered that
she had commissions and could not sleep
at night. Now since taking Mi-o-na she
sleeps right through the night until morn
ing and has gained greatly in strength"
Few medicines have many friends in
Washington as Mi-o-na. Henry Evans
has the local agency for this preparation.
A box of these tablets costs but 50c and
this amount will cure the average dys-
peptic and fill out the wasted form.
