in New Form.

where Pleased.

Nowadays it takes considerable to as
tonish the world. So many wonderful
things have been discovered in the past
century that II has seemed almost impossi-
bic that anything more could be found to
add TO the comfort or benefit of man.
Probably no branch of science has made
such wonderful strides as have been made
| in the practice of medicine. Diseases that
number of years ago were considered
fatal. are now known to be durable. Even
consumption is no longer looked upon with
the dread that it formerly inspired
1T is right on this line of wasting dis
eases that we now have news of a Won
/ derful discovery-onc that is bound to
revolutionize the science of medicine and
startle the world. Every one is familiar
with methods that have been employed
by physicians for years, in cases that they
were afraid would develop into decline
In all troubles of the throat. lungs,
bronchial tubes and other similar ailments
that We're known to end disastrously,
about the first thing the doctor would do
would be to recommend cod liver oil, for
cod liver oil has been recognized for a
great many years as possessing peculiar
medicinal properties particularly adapted
for the cure of such troubles.
Every one knows the objection, however,
to the use of this nauseating remedy. So
extremely disagreeable is the taste and
smell of cod liver oil, that many people
have actually been unable to take single
dose of it. Many others have made heroic
efforts to take the medicine. but have
been obliged to abandon it after strug-

drifted into incurable disease who might
have been saved had it been possible to
administer this potent medicine. Enough
people have been able to assimilate cod
liver oil to prove to the medical profession
and the world al large its intrinsic value.
Such patients as were blessed with unus-
ually strong stomachs derived benefit from
cod liver oil. Why, then. could not form
of it be devised to be administered to
patients whose digestive organs had been
weakened by disease?
This is exactly what scientists and
chemists have been aiming at for years,
and this is exactly what has been accom-
plished by two prominent French chem
lists. Their secret has been brought to
America. and our own Mr.. Tragic has
succeeded in connecting himself with the
prominent firm of Boston chemists who
are placing this new preparation on the
market. The preparation in question: now
that it has been discovered, like all other
great Inventions is simple. By peculiar
process the liver of the live cod is treated
in such manner that there is obtained an
extract which contains all, and only all.
Of the curative properties that have made
cod liver oil famous The horrible-smell-
ing, cating-ta sting fat that has always
been a part Of this remedy, has been left
entirely behind.
This curative extract is the basis of

consumer is unable to distinguish the fact
that he is taking anything more than

Mr. Tragic has indeed struck it just
right in making arrangements to handle
this new remedy. which goes under the
name Of Vinol Wine of Cod Liver Oil. 1t

about it and to learn directly from MIN
the good that is being done by finding a
way TO administer what has always been
a horrible and much dreaded medicine. in
a form that is actually pleasant to say
nothing of being hundred times more
efficient.
