Vinol Promptly overcomes
Weakness.
DEBILITY OFTEN PRECEDES
COMPLETE COLLAPSE.
We Want Every One to Know
How to Get Strong.
OUR vIN0L IS A STRENGTH
CREATOR.

The saddest ight on earth is a broken.
down man or woman.
We see such people every day right
here in our city.
1t is pititul to see a man that should
be IN his prime dragging himself
through life detected. discouraged and
broken down. due to some premature
weakness. 1t does not make any diff
ference whether this weakness is the
result of dissipation. indiscreet living
OF disease; it can be overcome.
We have known of many very serious
eases of debility quickly overcome by
Ninol.
Ninol is n scientific rcbuilder and
strength creator. ltcontains the active
curative principles of Cod-Liver Oil in
highly concentrated form. The
benefit that can be derived from the
use OF these properties is so well known
that there is no need for US to enter
into that subject.
We could quote many instances where
Ninol has done good: as an example,
here is one coming from Jane s Fen
1lSii. Il prominent member OF tit W. q.
L. L.. and a resident of Suncook. y. II.
She writes:
Il was run down, was in bed from
May to March. Was SO nervous and
sickly that every one thought | was in
most precarious condition. Ny weight
was reduced to 120 pounds. | was ad-
vised to take Vinol. which | did. and
am now very much better, and am able
to be about again. As Il rebuilder and
a strength giver nothing can equal it.
Ninol is a Godblessing to anybody"
Because VinOl is delicious, and
because it does contain these
mu Ch-sought-after medicinal
properties we endorse it, and we
unhesitatingiy proclaim that it is
better than any preparation of
Cod-liver oil or tonic rebuiIderwe
have ever had in our store.
