Winter Food and Living Strain Di-

Be Well.

The hearty food and %overeating Sc
common in winter, strain the stom-
ach and digestive organs 81 that by
this time the average person is out Of
health. 1t may be a simple headache,
possibly sleeplessness, or a general
tired, weak feeling, but the chances
are that the stomach is weak and can
not properly take care of the food, and
as a result there is heartburn, indiges-
tion, lack OF energy and a general fag-
ged out state.
The stomach needs health and
strength. The various aches and
pains that you have are the stomach's
cry for help and its warning that it
has been overworked.
Give it strength by taking a MILO
ma tablet before each meal, and 1t
will 500 do its work so promptly
and naturally that you will not real
lie you have a stomach. There will
be no acidity, no fl~atulency, no grip
ing about the heart, no unpleasant
cases, no furred tongue, no inflam-
nation OF the mucous membrane.
A SOC box OF Mi.o-na Will bring
buoancy OF spirit In place of lassltude
and dependency. 1t will help the
overtaxed stomach to start fairly on
tho road TO health. 1t will give the
sleep so necessary to brain and nerve
centers.
Ask Woodbridge s. Purdy, one OF the
most reliable drug firms In this sec
tion to show you the strong guaran-
tee under which the sell Mi-o-na. Use
Mi-o-na and you can soon eat what you
want, and all you want, for it will
strengthen the weakest condition of
your stomach and re-establish good
digestion,
