A NEW GERM THEORY.
Explains Cause OF Much OF the Sickness
in ryan.

II is well known that everyone
swallows countless germs every day
many Of them being positive disease
germs which, under right conditions
result Ia serious sickness.
Dame Nature kills most OF these
germs when they reach the stomach
and digestive organs with the natur-
al juices secreted by the healthy
stomach. A. "A usuAl thing il is only
the person with a weak stomach aud
poor digestion who should fear the
germs Of disease.
The most recent theory OF scien-
lists Is that the bodily health de-
ponds upon tho natural action Of the
stomach. This explains why those
who use Ml.o.ns tablets are rarely
~ Taken before each meal, Mi
o-na strengthens the stomach so that
disease germs are entirely neutral
lied or else driven from the system.
You can eat what you want and all
you want without fear Of indigestion,
IL you take Mi-O-na tablet before
each meal.
Thousands Of people are wasting
away thinking that they have heart
disease. liver complain, or some
kidney disorder, and that the result
Ing headache, dizziness, heartburn
aud general dependency aud weak
ness Is a sign Of serious Illness, when
In reality there Is nothing the mat
ter with them but weak stomach,
which tifty cent box Of Mi-0-na
tablets will restore TO health and
strength.
Mi-o-na is guaranteed cure for
all diseases OF the stomach, except
ing cancer. Ask r. j. jenkins 20
