 IessIy Abusing the Stomach.

The most reckless man in regard to health is the busy business man. At noon he rushes out for a bite to eat. He bolts his food without proper mas tication, and heaps on his stomach an extra burden greater than it is able to carry without breaking down.
 His overworked stomach is crying for help; it appeals to him for relief fin various ways; expulsion of sour gas, waterbrash, sour taste in mouth. heaviness after eating, shortness of breath, bad breath, etc.
 One Mi-o-na tablet taken with or after each meal will help any sufferer from dyspepsia wonderfully. It aids the stomach in the work of digestion which it must perform.
 Mi-o-na tablets are sold by The Lee & Osgood Co. at 50 cents a large box, with a rigid guarantee to cure dyspep- sia and all stomach troubles, or money back They make eating a pleasure.
 Mi-o-na cleanses and purffies the stomach and bowels and puts vigor and strength into the overworked tis- sues. It is the surest stomach tonic in the world.
 Sold by leading druggists every where.
