A Boston Paper investigates the
Merits Of VinOl,

lFrom the Roston HeraldO

There has reached US rumors OF a
new discovery. Something mat WIN
revolutonlze the practice Of medicine
a remedy that has given sufferers
from wasting diseases hopes OF re-
newed health and prolonged life.
OF enough importance have these sto-
ries appeared that a special interview
with Mr.. Duohl of the Smith Drug
Co., who IS interested himself In this
new preparation which Is called Nlnol,
was thought advisable.
Our reporter had no difficulty In find
ing Mr. Druehls place OF business, me
first man he met said: "Oh yes, Mr.
DIuehl Is the man who has the wonder
full new remedy that viii cure every
thing that people always thought cod
liver oil would help" and he was speed
ily directed to Mr.. Druehls enterpris-
ing and busy establishment. Mr., Druehl
is business from the word go but rather
objected to the fame Of this prepare
ton being spread abroad as a discoVe-
ry
why" said Mr. Druehl. "thls Is no
more a new discovery than was the
moon when il was first viewed through
a telescope. The discovery existed
simply in the fact Of finding out
means OF getting at the truth we were
after Perhaps the method might be
considered a discovery, but what we
have found has been known for years,
and IL Is nothing more nor less than
the valuable medicinal properties that
have always existed in the Gods liver,
and for which cod liver oil has been
prescribed by so many physicians. You
see II Is Just this way. Cod liver oil,
(perhaps you have taken II YOURSELF Is
something that IL very valuable In all
sorts of wasting diseases, and In itself
is extremely dlsagreeable. why |
firmly believe that a great many cases
Of consumption, even, could be cured
II Il were possible for the patient TO
take enough cod liver oil to let It's vir-
tues become manifest For those who
have tendency to sore throat, bron
chItls, coughs, colds, for every one OF
an anemic disposition, IL has always
been considered as simply invaluablei
and yet Il has more often been neces-
sary TO abandon its use than II has been
possible to devise way OF administer
ing 1t,
Two eminent French chemists started
In and got interested In the matter ana
after years Of study they have succeed
ed In extracting from the liver or the
cod lust what IL necessary, ana nave
left behind that obnoxious, greasy, Vile-
tasting fatty matter, the thought or
which even has turned the stomach OF
thousands. That Is all over now. We
have lust the thing at last. We have
found a way Of getting the Kernel out
of the nut
This Vlnol that Is so much talked
about Is Just exactly that IL IL the
concentrated essence of medicine found
in the Gods liver that does the good
! The grease is like the shell of the nut,
absolutely useless, only II Is different
| from the shell of the nut because be-
| sides being useless II Is extremely ODD
noxlous and disagreeable to sight, taste
and smell
We have now taken this extract and
nut a sufficient quantity Of II In de-
Misunderstanding table wine. we have
| also added a small amount OF organic
| iron. This helghtens the tonic effect
, OF the wine. The extract Of the Gods
liver comes In just the right proper
| tion to do the greatest amount OIL
good. Here, drink this" said Mr.,
Druehl, as he reached for bottle ana
poured forth what appeared TO be, ana
which smelled like. a delicious, rich
wine.
The reporter hesitated The thought
OF Gods livers, or anything to do win
them, brought back memories or the
mast. when he himself had made hero
ic struggles to take that awful medl-
cine. "Go ahead and drink it, said Mr..
Druehl. The reporter did so, and looked
up. Eyes, know. but that Is all right.
D thought you were going to give me
some OF that Vlnol you were talking
about, and did not know that 1t was
your custom TO treat a man interview
ing you. to drink like that"
Mr.. Druehl laughed. We'll, that IL
yinol that you have taken. Now you
know that part Of what / have told
YOU is true. it did not taste bad did
itY" And It surely did not Now
said Mr. Druehl, 'let me tell you some-
thing else You have Just taken, con-
densed, of the curative principles or
the Gods liver what you would find In
fifty per cent Of its volume Of cod liver
oil. You can therefore imagine that
II Il IL necessary to take this remedy
how much easier 1t will be 10 derive
benefit from IT than II used to be when
cod liver oil was administered. Do
YOU realize that formerly you only OBJ
tained a small proportion OF these same
curative properties in a whole pint or
that horrible oil? Doesn't that tell
the story to you?
"You will have TO excuse me now, for,
as you see, am more than driven. OF
course I am getting the advantage OF
the discovery by being directly connect
ed with the ROstOn house"
The reporter thanked Mr.. Druehl for
his kindness, and left him, wondering
10 himself whether after all man had
TO be born on purpose to be famous,
or whether notoriety and good fortune
did not sometimes come as a matter Of
luck.
