There are thousands, both wen and women, who do not take time to eat properly. Whey rush through life, and its a result we have an age of indiges- tion, nervousness, irritability, sleep- less nights, and morose di -position. Our national danger is stomach weak- ness, due to the strenuous life. Mt-o-na tablets. strengthen the walls of the stomach and stimulate secretion of the digestive juices. They make the stomach comfortable and cure in- digestion. Sick headaches, palpitation, yellow skin and coated tongue are at few of the many distressing results of indi- gestion that Mi-o-na never fails to cure. W. S. Cole sells Mi-o-na in 50 cent boxes, and gaurantee to refund the money if it does not give complete s at isfaction. Elr ler Ifir‘IrliFIlr 1117;0r AROUND ABOUT US Hillsgreen: Miss Anna M.
