Ulcer of the
Stomach
lnsidious Nature of the Disease
How to Recognize and Cure II.

Ulcer OF the stomach may exist for years
without very marked symptoms excepting
those caused by indigestion.
In good health the stomach resists the
action of the gastric juices, but when
weakened, the membrane is badly nour-
ished and the digestive fluids act upon il
as well as upon the food, keeping up until
perforation of the stomach occurs. In
advanced cases of ulcer of the stomach
there is much discomfort after eating,
with a constant gnawing sensation be-
tween meals, pain from the pit of the
stomach back to the shoulder blade.
AT the first symptoms of indigestion,
treatment should at once be started with
Mi o-na. This is a scientific remedy
adapted specifically to one purpose, the
cure OF stomach troubles. 1t is so uni
formly successful that Chas. Rhodes gives
a signed guarantee with every so cent
box that the money will be refunded if it
does not cure.
