weak that scarcely any food can be
eaten without pain and distress.

this kind successfully is with Mi-o-na.
IT removes the cause of indigestion,
weakness of the muscles OF the
stomach and bowels, and restores the
whole digestive system to health and
strength so that it takes care of all the
food that is eaten

ton is followed by flatulence. diZzi-
ness, headaches, sleepieSSneSS ana
many other disagreeable symptoms

relied upon to cure this condition Is

of the suffering. the weakness of the
stomach and intestinal tract ana

ing.
