WEAK STOMACH CAUSES SICKNESS Different Symptoms That Result from Indigestion How to Cure by Strengthening the Stomach. If you have ever suffered with a weak stomach you must realize that the digestive system is to the body what the foundation is to the house he base of support and strength. Whatever hurts your stomach or lessens its power, hurts all other parts of the body and Impairs their powers. If the stomach Is weak and distressed, one organ after another will be Involved until the heart, kid nevs and liver are all distressed. Get the stomach right and the health will naturally come to the other organs. This explains why a irood mnny people who have doctor' ed for veais for diseases of the heart. kidneys or liver, have at Inst been cured by Ml-o-na stomach tablets. Thev found to their astonishment and happiness that, when the weak stomach was strengthened, their health returned, the heart became regular, the torpid liver active and the kidneys heaithy. Do not think we clam Ml-o-na Is a "cure-all." tt Is not. It Is a spe cific for all distresses of tho stom ach, and when It strengthens the stomach and cures Indigestion, you 'will soon be well all over without further medicine. Ml-o-na Is sold only in 50c boxes, never in bulk. It Is sold under an absoluto guarantee by Tollman A Co. to refund money unless It cures. Washington Letter Washington, March 21.
