WAIT FOR HUNGER.
Good Advice from Bowditch G. Web
ster and Percy w. Means as to How
to Create an Appetite.

ANY physician will tell you that il
is unwiSe To eat unless one is really
hungry. 1t is far better to miss q
meal than TO eat without appetite.
But do not take a tonic, stimulant
or appetizer to make you hungry
BOWditch & Webster and Percy w
Means say that the best way to create
an appetite is to restore the digestion
to health by the use of Mi-O-na Stom-
ach tablets, 4 reliable remedy tnal
they have used with the best Of salts
faction.
When Mi-O-na is used. the irritation
and inflammation of the stomach coat
| ing will BE- soothed. the gastric fol-
licleS will be strengthened so that they
will pour out the natural digestl, {
fluids with regularity. and the foOG
YOU eat will be perfectly digestec
without distress.
A large box of Mi-o-na stomach
tablets is sold for so cents by Bow
ditch & Webster and Percy w. Means
and it is SO successful and reliable il
curing Indigestion and other stomach
troubles, with the exception of cancer
Of the stomach, that they sell it under
| a guarantee that the money will BE-
refunded unless it does all that is
claimed for it.

at Dexter Asylum on Hope street.
The clerk looked at him closely but he
did not look like an insane person. The
other clerks in the office were busy, and
did not notice the clerks scare.
Finally the clerk decided IL was best
TO give him a license, as he might then
depart without injuring her; and she con-
tinued with the questions.
When asked his occupation he said he
was a gardener.
"Then you are not an inmate at the

she was greatly relieved when he said
he was not.
