A POSITIVE CURE FOR INDIGESTION.

if you have indigestion, youi food ferments in the stomach and bowels. It does more: It decays, and the nutritious matter which should go to make new blood decays with it, and this leads to an impoverished condition of the blood, to nervousness, billiousness, constipation, sick headache, bad breath which disgusts your friends, and other disagreeable and unpleasant conditions. And all this trouble is caused by the food that doesn’t digest, but ferments and oftimes rots in the stomach. And fermentation is caused by the stomach not being strong enough and energetic enough to thoroughly mix the food with the digestive juices. MI-O-NA is responsible for tens of thousands of cures. In fact, ft is such a. positive cure for indigestion and all stomach troubles that it is guaranteed by B. F. Fendig to cure or money back. The price of a. large box of Mi-o-na tablets is 50 cents, and they are sure to promptly relieve the worst case of indigestion or gastritis. Try them.

Simple Recipe for Home-Made Rheumatism and Kidney Cure. To relieve the worst forms of Rheumatism, take a teaspoonful of the following mixture after each meal and at bedtime: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce: Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. These harmless ingredients can be obtained from our home druggists, and are easily mixed by shaking them well in a bottle. Relief Is generlly felt from the first few doses. This prescription forces the clogged up, inactive kidneys to filter and strain from the blood the poisonous waste matter and uric acid, which causes Rheumatism. As Rheumatism Is not only the most painful and torturous disease, but dangerous to life, this simple recipe will no doubt be greatly valued by many sufferers here at home, who should at once prepare tne mixture to get this relief. It is said that a person who would take this . prescription regularly, a dose or two daily, or even a few times a week, would never have serious Kidney or Urinary disorders or Rheumatism. Cut this out and preserve it. Good Rheumatism prescriptions which really relieve are scarce, indeed, and when you need it, you want it badly.

DR. A. G. CATT OPTOMETRIST. Graduate of Optical Callege, also Registered on State Board Examination. Rheumatism I have found a tried and tested cure for Rhea* tnatism I Not a remedy that will straighten the distorted limbs of chronic cripples, nor turn bony growths back to flesh again. That is impossible. But I can now surely HU the pains and pangs of this deplorable disease. In Germany —with a Chemist in the City of Darmstadt—l found the last ingredient with which Dr. Shoop's Rheumatic Remedy was made a perfected, dependable prescription. Without that last ingredient. I successfully treated many, many cases of Rheumatism; but now. at last, it uniformly cures all curable cases of this heretofore much dreaded disease. Those sand-like granular wastes, found in Rheumatic Blood seem todissolva and pass away under the action of this remedy as freely as does sugar when added to pure water. And then, when dissolved, these poisonous wastes freely pass from the system, and the cause of Rheumatism is gone forever. There is now no real need—no actual excuse to suffer longer without help. We sell, and in confidence recoin maßd Dr. Shoop’s Rheumatic Remedy “ALL DEALERS”
