Fry Has Such Faith In This Dyspepsia Remedy That Ha Guarantees It. One of tho greatest successes in the salo of medicine has been achieved by Mi-o-na, the standard dyspepsia rem edy, and its salo is increasing so rapid ly that Daniel J. Fry, the popular drug gist, has hard work to keep a stock on hand. It is very popular with bankers. ministers, lawyers and others where business or profession keeps them close ly confined, while those who have brought on indigestion through irreg ular eating, worry, or other causes, have found relief in this reliable remedy. Mi-o-na conies in tablet form and is sold in a moto.1 box especially designed for convenience in carrying the medi cine in the pocket or purse. It is pleas ant to tako, gives quick roliof and should help any case, no matter of how long a standing. This remedy has been so uniformly successful that Daniel J. Fry will in future sell Mi-o-na under a positive guarantee to refund tho money if it should not prove entirely satis factory. No other dyspepsia medicine ever had a largo enough percentage of cures so that it could bo sold in this manner. A gtinrantee like this speaks volumes for tho merit of the romody.
