A Letter of Explanation


Nos doubt many reading from day to day the
articles publishing in this paper for vINOL.
and no doubt many wonder why we are so jealous
In It's behalf and seemingly extravagant in our
expressions of praise of yINoL: in fact, know
you wonder, for many have spoken to about 1t.
This is quite natural. heretofore we have not
taken the same active and prominent part in the
sale Of any particular medicinal preparation In
store.
In explanation We beg to say that some time ago
there came to us q gentleman from Boston who
explained that his firm had at last been able to
produce preparation containing all the curative
elements Of Iod Liver OIL. omittins entirely the
oil and grease He explained that the process en-
ployed was the French process which the two
famous French professors. Gautier and Morgues
worked out liter twenty years. study.
Now. We knew that that French process Of sepa-
rating the well-known curative element. Of Cod
Liver OIL FROM the useless and exceedingly disa-
greeable oil or grease was Of great importance to
the science of medicine. The great trouble was to
make the preparat alton by this French process SO
that it would he In marketable shape. and some
years passed after the two French professors had
perfected their work before any manufacturer was
able to put up a preparation of Cod Liver on by
their process which would render the discovery Of
any practical use to the general public.
The gentleman from Boston, above referred to,
was successful in assuring beyond doubt that
his firm had succeeded in producing the desired re-
suit, and had come to Washington to ask US to
take an interest in the enterprise.
We recognized the fact that VINOL. really q
preparation Of Cod Liver OIL, based on the prfn-
ciple indicated. with the oil or grease entirely
eliminated, retaining only the active. curative ele
ments. making the finest tonic reconstructor and
body builder that medicinal science could produce,
as for hundreds of years cod liver oil had been
recognized Of the greatest and grandest
builders OF the human system: its great curative
value has never been disputed. As formerly pre-
pared Its nauseating taste and disagreeable effect
upon weakened stomachs rendered 1t absolutely
vslueles in millions of cases where 1t might have
performed the most wonderful cures. We accepted
his proposition and have used our every effort to
bring it to the attention OF the people Of this city
You know, of course. that VINOI. Is not q patent
medicine; all its ingredients being mentioned ON
the bottle, ,o-
Now, that IL bow we became interested in
V1NOL, and assure you we have never regret
ted connection with It, Its actual results right
here where could see for ourselves have amply
justified all the claims put forth by the gentleman
from Boston. and have strengthened our faith in
the great curative value OF vINoL to such an e1-
tent that induced TO make the statements
in its favor in this paper from day to day. at some
of which you have expressed wonder and surprise.
We believe in thoroughly and we be-
Heve 1t is prepa. a.ation that will leave its mark
the history Of this century. But because we
think much Of 1t We do not want any one to be
led by enthusiasm to invest In 1t and after
wards regret that he did
For this guarantee all sAfes, and you
would be astonished II you knew how few people
have asked to have thefr money refunded. That
In itself is of the strongest evidences that
NINOL is almost always successful. For we have
always told people If It did not help them to come
and get their money back and not two per cent
have taken advantage Of the Offer.
1t Is evident, therefore. that VINOL succeeds
ninety eight times out Of hundred and that is a
wonderful result.
You will pardon for making such long story
eYpianati ton of our VINOL enthusiasm was due the
people of this city, and with your permission we
will keep you posted on its future good work here
Yours very truly,
