LEARN TO EAT
Few People In Grants Pass
Really Know How.

Slow eating will solve one-half the
problem of i'll health. Those who
suffer already with indigestion and
weak stomach can with care and the
use of Mi-o-na stomach tablets restore
their digestion to healthy condition,
so that they can eat what they want
at any time without fear Of distress
or suffering.
After a few days use Of Mona
stomach tablets, the headache, dizzy
feeling, drowsiness, had taste in the
mouth, coated tongue, nervousness,
sleeplessness, distress after eating, all
these symptoms of q weak stomach
will disappear. and perfect digestion
and q good skin will show that the
vital machinery is once more running
smoothly.
Take little Mi-o-na tablet before
each meal so that it will stimulate the
digestive juices and give strength to
the stomach, and then 1t will take care
of the food that is eaten, without in
digestion and the unpleasant full feel
ing with which so many suffer after
meals.
Demaray has so much confidence in
the power of Mi-o-na to cure indiges-
tion and all stomach ills that he gives
