WEAK LUNGS
AS Indicated BY A Hacking
Cough.
vinoI Will Cure
Lung Affections.

When you have cough you are con-
tinually fearing something worse.
Do not let yourselves get in this condi.
you why we know Vinol is the best thing
that you can take for a hacking cough
with tendency to lung trouble.
One of the greatest remedies that has
ever been prescribed by physicians for
consumption and all wasting diseases is
cod liver oil. You know how disagreeable
it is to take. We have actually seen
people who would rather take their
chances than to take that medicine. Now
with VinOl this is all different. To be
sure it owes its value to the fact that
it contains in highly concentrated form
the valuable medicinal properties that
have made cod liver oil famous for such
diseases, but let us remind you that it
does not contain any OF or grease that
makes the old form of cod liver oil so
objectionable and often so impossible to
weakened stomach.
Try our Vinol if you are experiencing
any bronchial or lung trouble. 1t does
not upset the stomach. 1t will do that
organ good, not only by creating an APP
petite but by enabling it to better assimi-
late the food that is taken into it. 1t will
increase the nourishing properties of this
same food, so that the system will take
up all the elements it needs to make rich
red blood and firm flesh.
When this is done the doors of the
system are closed against consumption,
and any existing irritation or diseased
membrane will be cured.
Mr.. Thomas Morton, Saltwater, Maine,
says: "My grandson has been troubled
with bad cough lately and learning that
Vinol was good for all pulmonary ills,
got bottle of it for The boy. All I can
say is that it proved just the medicine he
needed. He now feels much better, and
his cough has disappeared.
The reason we promise to refund
the cost of Vinol, to all who do not
experience the benefits that we claim
it will bring about, is because we
know by experience that It invariably
accomplishes everything we Claim
for It. 1t is very successful
