There are several varieties in Great

aside, it is clear that we demand
salt not only for the maintenance of
the body's normal constituents, but
likewise for the perfect discharge
of many of the functions.
"I believe one of the punishments

emaciation and death if the depri

WATCH YOUR TONGUE.
If Furred and Coated, it is a
Warning of Trouble to Come.
When it is the morning after the night
before, vou do not have to look at your
tongue to know that thestonauh ia upset,
the head is achmg with a dull rhythm,
aDd that all the world looks black and
dreary.
It may have been lobster Newburgb,
Welsh rarebit or some other tasty dish
that looked much better at night than
the morning after. There ia no need to
look at the tongue thermometer then for
symptoms of trouble. You naturally go
to your box of Mi-o-na stomach tablets,
and with one of the little relievers bring
joy and gladness to the physical system.
The real time to watch the tongue is all
of the time. If it is coated with a white
fur, or possibly with dark trimmings, even
though the stomach doea not tell yon by
the acute pains of indigestion that it
needs help, yet the coating shows that
yon are getting into a bad way and that
there ia need of Mi-o-na.
Mi-o-na is ao positive, so sure, so reli
able in its curative action npon the stom
ach . that Graham & Wells, the local
agents, give an absolute guarantee with
every 50-cent box they sell to refund the
money unless the remedy gives absolute
and complete satisfaction.
