the Money if Mi-o-na Does
Not Relieve You.
''It's a pleasure to sell a medicine
when my customers come in after
ward and tell me how much good it
has done tn en-, said Anders Jaco bsen,
the popular druggist to Press man,
"and that is why like to sell and
recommend Mi-o-na, the dyspepsia
remedy. I have so much faith in this
article that I am going to guarantee
it in the future, and will return the
money to any purchaser of Mi.o.na
whom it does not help. That may
seem rash but my customers have said
so many good words in it's favor that
I do not expect to have many packages
| returned.
"Anyone who has dyspepsia, whose
food does not digest we'll, and who
has to take thought as to what he can
eat, and when, can leave so cents de-
posit ut my store and take home box
of Mi o-na and if the remedy does not
regulate his digestion and help his
dyspepsia he can Withdraw his
money"
This shows great faith in the merit
of Mi-o-na. 1t is really most un-
usual medicine and the rapid increase
of sales since Anders Jacobsen intro
duced it in Stafford shows that it does
all that it is claimed to do relieves
dyspepsia. regulates digestion and en-
ables those who use it to eat just what
