TO PRoLoNG LIFE.
Prevention of Disease Much more
Important Than Cure.

AN ounce of prevention is better
than q pound of cure" is nowhere more
positively true than in medicine
The best way to cure stomach
troubles is to treat them before they
get fastened upon the system.
Half-a-dozen doses Of Mi-o-na
stomach tablets taken at the first
warning of coated tongue, flatulence.
heartburn, headache, distress after
eating and other symptoms of indiges-
ton, will prevent a chronic case of
stomach suffering that may last for
years.
These little tablets are Of inestima-
BILE value in all weakened conditions d
the stomach and bowels. They have a
specific action upon the muscular walls
of the stomach and intestines, giving
them strength and tone and promoting
the secretion OF gastric juices so that
whatever food is taken is readily
digested by the stomach itself and the
refuse expelled in natural way.
Mi-o-na is a positive cure, not
temporary relief like the ordinary
6igestives that were formerly 50
largely used.
Bowditch, Webster &; Co. have seen
80 many instances Of the power Of
Mi-o-na to cure stomach diseases,
even of the worst ana most chronic
type, that they stand ready to sell the
remedy under a guarantee to refund
the money in case it Goes not cure.
Buy 50-cent box in this way, know
ing that if the remedy helps you, as
it undoubtedly will, you get rid Of
indigestion in a pleasant way at small
expense, while if by chance the medi-
cine should not be adapted to your
ease and does not do what is claimed
for it, your money is returned, and
your test of Mi-o-na's virtues has
cost you nothing.
Sold and guaranteed in Waterville
