Respectfully, II. B. HUMBERT. Stop the Strenuous Life. Weakens the Tissues and Lessens Or ganic Vitality. The stress and strain of the strenu ous life in both city and country tends towards stomach troubles. Five people Buffer today where one did ten years ago with sick headache, dizziness, flatu lence distress after eating, specks be fore the eyes, bloating, nervousness, sleeplessness and the many other symp toms of indigestion. All who are Buffering with stomach troubles, and that means at least two out of three in Anderson and other towns, should use Mi-o-na stomach tab lets. Nothing else is as safe, yet effec tive; nothing else can be so thoroughly relied upon to relieve all troubles from indigestion as Mi-o-na. So reliable is Mi-o-na in its curative action that Laurens Drug Co., with every 50-cent box they Bull, give a guar antee to refund the money unless the remedy cures.
