OUT or SORTS.
People Not Really Sick are Often Most
In Need Of Caro-.

The people who actually are most in
need of kind works and medical treat
ment are not those who are really sick,
but just tout of sorts"
The Old-time energy, force, strength
and happy spirits are lacking; the
physical and mental powers are flag
ging; there is poor appetite, and they
cannot get the good out of the food
they eat. In nine cases out of ten, this
results directly from a weakened stom-
ach, and no other treatment equals
Mona to restore strength and health.
When the nerves and muscles are
weak, if there is sleeplessness, irrita-
bility, snd specks before the eyes, when
the head aches and there is dull pain
in the back, and there is any distress
and heaviness in the stomach, dizzi-
ness, and sometimes nausea, the use of
Mi-o-na stomach tablets for few days
will make a world of Improvement, and
continued use for a reasonable time will
restore perfect health.
These tablets are not mere digestives:
they absolutely strengthen all the or
gans of digestion, so that there is good
appetite, perfect digestion and strong
nerves, when they are used.
A large box Mi-o-na stomach tab
let's is sold for so cents by Dodson' s
Drug Store, with an absolute guarantee
that they will be successful in curing
digestion and restoring health, or the
money will be refunded. Ask him to
show you the liberal guarantee they
give with every so cent box of Milo.
