EAT WHAT YOU WANT.
Science Has Now Found the True way
to Cure Indigestion.

A few years ago, when a sufferer
from indigestion went to stomach
specialist, the result was a rigid diet
list that almost meant starvation.
But the first thing to do in the case
of indigestion or Stomach weakness is
to strengthen the muscular walls of the
stomach and intestines, so that they
will care for the food that is eaten. In
no other way can this be done as well
as by taking a Mf-o-na tablet before
each meal This restores strength to
the stomach muscles and stimulates
the pouring out of gastric juices, so
that the food is digested readily and its
nourishment retained in the system to
build up energy and vitality.
Do not think the sick headache,
heartburn, bad taste in the mouth,
coated tongue. spots before the eyes,
sIeepIessness and the many other
symptoms that are the direct result of
indigestion, will go away of themselves
The stomach must be built up and
strengthened by Mi-o-na before you
can be well and strong, free from
suffering and distress.
J In many of the best homes in
sAugusta and adjoining towns, the
thandy little Mi-O-na tablets, so
pleasant to take, yet so effective, have
given quick and lasting relief from in
digestion and that disagreeable full
feeling after eating.
The guarantee that Bowditch, Web
sster & Co. give with every 50-cent box
fof Mi-o-na, to refund the money I'M
Hess the remedy cures, shows their
Sconfidence in the treatment. They
take the whole risk, and Mi-o-na will
not cost you a penny unless it cures.
Sold and guaranteed in Waterville
by Geo. w. Dorr and in Gardiner by C.
III. Beane.
