GUARANTEED STOMACH

Miller DRUG Company viii Refund
Money il Mi-o-na Fails to Cure.


You may ask why It is that Mi-o-na
stomach tablets are sold by Miller
Drug Company under a guarantee to
refund the money unless they cure
when no other treatment for stomach
troubles is sold IN this manner
The answer is simple and concius-

other medicines for stomach trou-

Mi-o-na strengthens the whole digest

able to care for all the food that Is

If YOU do not use your arm or leg
for a month. the musc.es become flabby
and weak and YOU have to resort 70

the stomach muscles. If they are not
used. .thoy become so weak that Il is
necessary 20 continue using a digest

strong that you can give up the use
Of medicine.

WeILKept Hands

An orange stick must be used on them
daily.
Carefully loosen the cuticle around
the nails.
DO not prod back the skin until It
forms an unsightly ridge
Use a file to shape the nails, as scis-
sors have a tendency to make them
brittle.
1t is Of advantage to rub cold cream
on and around the nails at night.
It keeps the flesh from drying and
splitting, and the nails from becoming
brittle.
Particular care should be taken to
dry the hands thoroughly, after wash

Wiping the fingers with downward
molten helps to give them the tapering
