HERE'S new VIGOR FOR
OYERWORKED STOMACHS

Bowditch- Webster & Co., the popular
druggists, have been in the drug business
long enough to have their own opinion of
the best way of selling medicines They

guarantee to relieve dyspepsia or to re-
fund the money. You simply leave 50
cents on deposit with Bewditch- Webster
& Co. and it, after you have used the box
of Mi-o-na you decide that it has done
you no good all you have to do is to tell
them so and they will return your money.
Hundreds Of people have been relieved
of stomach agonies by using this remark.
able remedy. 1t is not simply food d.
gester; it is a medicine that puts all of
the digestive organs into normal condi-
ton and gives ruddy. glowing. vigorous
health. A change for the better will be
seen after the first few doses of Mi-o-na,
and it's continued use will soon give the
power to eat anything at any time and
not suffer distress afterward.
Mi-o-na is sold under positive guaran-
tee to refund the money If it does not
