A Square Meal
and
A SQUARE Deal

Here's n square deal for the
people who can't eat a square
meal without after pain or distress.
Go to your druggist today and
get box of Mi-O-Na Tablets, the
great prescription for indigestion
and stomach troubles,
Take one, or if your suffering is
intense, two tablets with OF af-
ter meals and at the end of ten
days if you can't eat square meal
without distress go and get your
money back.
That's where the square deal
comes in.
But Mi-O-Na is really a stomach
upbuilder of great merit.
The quick and positive action
of NTi-O-Na on the stomach in case
of gas, waterbrash, sour stomach
and heartburn is worth a lot OF
money to any sufferer.
Why not try Mi-O-Na-at D. DE-
Fry's' and druggists everywhere

VERY FEW WILL BE DROPPED
LegIonnaires Are Rushing to Pay 1921
Post Dues; Many New Members
Being Added.

The 10000 post adjutants Of the
American Legion, according to reports
reaching national headquarters from
all over the country. are finding them
selves now in the busiest weeks Of the
years as regards work.
The rush Of Legionnaires to get In
their 1921 post dues within the time
limit set, with the penalty of being
dropped from membership, If delin-
quent after that date. piled necessary
clerical and other detail work onto
the shoulders Of post adjutants in an
unprecedented manner.
To Judge by the returns thus far
available, the list of men to be dropped
from membership for non-payment of
their 1921 post dues within the speci-
fed time will be only small fraction
of the Legion and will be more than
offset by the thousands of new men,
bers already obtained In the member
ship drives of various departments.
