Good
Tasting
r?f
Medicine
Cod liver oil is in universal re
pute as the best body builder in
wasting diseases, and the best
reconstructed in recovery from
severe sickness known to medicine.
Nevertheless, three-fourths of
the people are really made sick by
the taste and smell of cod liver oil.
Half of them can't take it. Their
stomachs cither reject it, or are so
upset by it that the dose docs
more harm than good.
Vinol is the only preparation of
rod liver oil which contains no
grease or bad taste yet does con
tain all the virtue ot cod uver
oil, and is deliciously palatable. It
also contains organic iron. Iron
gives quality to the blood. Almost
every ailing person needs it.
The combination of these two
elements with table wine is both
scientific and effective. It has
accomplished wonderful things
right here in town. We think
we are doing a service to every
run-down, ailinrr. couching, ner
vous, debiltated person in calling
attention to Vinol. We sen it on
its merits money back if it does
not help you. You run no risk.
Old people revive under its influ
ence. Nursin? mothers and over
worked people get new vitality.
