Now these sought.for principles are In

terizes cod liver oil as We have known IL.
This extract is put up In a most palata BILE
and delicious form, so that II can be taken
by any one with the most delicate and
sensitive stomach. II Is positively free
from any object enable odor, taste, or any
OF the other disagreeahle features that

He is SO pleased In regard To the matter
that he wants every one 10 know about IL.
Above all he wishes il 20 be positively

capitalists their money, In procuring this
