CAN’T CONTRADICT THIS No Matter What Skeptics Say We Have Proved That Ml-o-na Will Cure Dyspepsia. “I gratefully acknowledge what Mi-o-na has done for me. I have taken 2 boxes and can say I have been cured of stomach trouble which no one on earth had it any worse than me. I have increased in weight. My weight is 129 lbs., the most I have weighed in 14 years. I think that everyone who is troubled with their stomach should try this wonderful medicine.”—Yours very truly, Mrs. Emma Schultz, Akron, O. There are any number of thin and scrawney people in this world who are in that condition simply because the stomach is out of order and does not extract the nutritous matter from the food to supply flesh to the hones. If these people would take Mi-o-na tablets with or after meals for a month they would take on good solid flesh just the same as Mrs. Schultz did. Mi-a-na tablets are known the country over as the surest cure for indigestion, belching of gas, sour stomach, coated tongue, sick headache, heartburn and catarrh of the stomach. Leading druggists everywhere sell Mi-o-na. B. F. Fendig sells them in Rensselaer for 50 cents and guarantees them to cure of money back. Y 9
