SENSIBLE REVIVAL,

seems to be the Mi-o-na doctrine that
has the most adherents in Tulsa Wipe
out Indigestion and stomach troubles
by using Mi-o-na Tablets and most of
the misery and i'll health would be
blotted out of existence.
Indigestion and stomach weakness
cause headache, back ache, nervous
ness, debility, sleeplessness, pains in
the side and limbs, poor appetite and
IA general unhealthy state. Take one
little Mi-o-na Tablet before each meal
for few days and you will soon find
that eating is a pleasure and food
does not cause distress. and that your
digestive organs have become so
strengthened that you can almost be
credited with the digetsion Of an os-
trich
A large box of Mi-o-na Stomach h
Tablets is sold for soc by the Shackle
Drug Co., and it is so successful and
reliable in curing indigestion and all
stomach troubles. with the exception
of cancer of the stomach, that they
sell it under an absolute guarantee
that the money will be refunded un-
