WHAT CAUSES INDIGESTION
To Be Cured, Weakness of Stomach
Muscles Must Be Overcome.

The chief cause of Indigestion is the
the lack of gastric juice.
To make a complete cure of stomach
trouble most people think they have to
give up business and devote their time
to dieting, exercise, and, perhaps, a
vacation.
But by taking Mi-o-na stomach tab
lets the stomach muscles will be
stimulated and strengthened and the
flow of gastric juice will be increased.
Mi-o-na does not do the stomach's
work; it makes the stomach strong
enough to do it. In this way the
trouble is completely cured and there
is no further need of medicine.
No matter how severe case of
stomach trouble you have, Mi-o-na
will cure it by strengthening the whole
digestive system, and you will soon
find that both stomach and bowels do
their work as they should
-a- sell Mi-o-na in 50-cent
boxes, and guarantee to refund the
money if the remedy does not give
complete satisfaction. @ take
all the risk. and the remedy costs you
nothing unless it cures.
If YOU suffer with sick headache,
heartburn. bad taste in the mouth,
coated tongue, specks before the eyes.
sleeplessness. nervous troubles, or any
of the other symptoms of Indigestion.
here is the chance to get a remedy on
the .fairest plan ever 2known-costs
