HA! Hal. HA!
Good Digestion and Good Health Bring
Joyous Life.

Whoever heard of a jolly dyspeptic?
Merriment and indigestion are as far
apart as the North and South poles.
Don't blame the poor dyspeptic for be-
ing blue, cross nervous. irritable and
grouchy. He cannot help it. No one
whose stomach is weak, whose nerves
are on edge, whose tongue is furred
and who hesitates at eating a hearty
meal for fear OF the distress that will
follow, can be sweet-tempered
Tone up the weak stomach muscles
and get digestion working naturally by
using Mi-o-na stomach tablets. This
remedy is not a mere digestive that
gives temporary relief only; it cures all
stomach troubles by strengthening the
digestive machinery and putting It
into such perfect order that it will take
care of all foods without distress. indi-
gestion or fiatulence.
Mi-o-na cures stomach troubles in
perfectly natural way, increasing the
flow Of gastric juices so that LIES
nOurishment is extracted from the food
and the refuse is expelled without the
aid of laxatives or other medicine.
If the complexion is blotched or pim-
pied, in nine cases out of ten it is
caused by stomach troubles and cannot
be cured until the stomach is regulated
by Mi-o-na.
So reliable and positive is the action
of Mi-o-na in curing indigestion and
all stomach weakness that Bowditch &
Webster sell the remedy under guar
antee to refund the money unless it
cures. Try a 50-cent box and see how
quickly you will get relief from indi-
gestion and in how short a time you
will forget that you have had a stom-
ach.

Rheumatic
Pains

my mother is a great suf-
ferer from rheumatism, and DR..
Miles Anti-Pain Pills is the only
remedy that relieves her"
MRS. G.. DAVENPORT,
Roycefeld, N. J.
The pains of rheumatism are
almost invariably relieved with,
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills. They
also overcome that nervous irri-
tation which prevents sleep be-
cause they soothe the nerves. To
chronic suffers they are invalu-
able. When taken as directed,
they relieve the distress and,
save the weakening influence Of
pain, which so frequently pros
trates. Many sufferers use them
whenever occasion requires with
the greatest satisfaction, why
not you? They do not derange
the stomach nor create a habit.
Why not try them?, Get a pack
age from your druggist. Take it
according to directions, and If
it does not benefit he will return
your money. 81. ' IA
