slight fall of snow, followed by chill

The weather had never before been
guilty of such behavior. Summer
raiment was discarded and a quick

And while the feathery snowfakes

But IT DOESN'T,
Many Have the Erroneous
Idea that Fat flakes Fat
One Reason of Cod Liver Oils
Popularity.
Nevertheless a Decidedly Wrong I'M
preston,

Fat taken into the stomach doss not
make fat. Thousands of physicians
have prescribed cod liver oil for vast
ing diseases and all troubles that show
themselves in a decline of weight.
Physicians know that the fat or grease
is not what is necessary to make fat or
tissue. They also know that it is one
of the main things that make cod liver
oil impractical in many cases. The fat
is too rich te be digested by stomach
weakened by disease.
When cod liver oil is given, often the
oil passes from the body in exactly the
same state in which it is received. The
reason doctors prescribe cod liver oil is
that it contains certain curative proper
ties. 1t is to take advantage of these
same curative properties that thy haye
so often tried to force their patients to
take this horrible, greasy, vile SMELL
ing, nauseRtlng remedy.
There are but few people who have
not had experience in one way or an
other with cod liver oil, and even the
thought of its smell is enought to cause
shudder. When we think of these
things it is not strange that every one
in our city is sounding the praise of
Vinol.
Vinol, which Mr.. j. G.. Dodsop,
prop. of Dodson's Pharmacy, is hand
ling, is tho solution of an embarrassing
puzzle tia physicians have had to con-
tend with for years. Much has been
said in the past few days of this Won
derfnl discovery and We: it would be
impossible to say too much in its praise
Vinol, Wine of God Liver Oil, will
indeed prove itself to be a Godsend of
the most precious kind. AS we haye
described it before, there is no need
now of entering into the subject at
length; but just remember that in
Vinol you can procure all the medici-
nal properties or curative principles
that make cod liver oil famous, but
without the greasy fat, Vinol contains
just the right amount of the active
medicinal properties of the Gods liver
that is Necessary for the cure of such
diseases as cod liver oil has been pre-
scr1bed for.
This is a subject that every one
should become familiar with and we
recon end that you make inquiries of
your druggist IN regard to Vinol, or if
you will call on Mr.. Dodson, who has
associated himself with the Boston
chemists who are preparing this rem
edy, he Will gladly give any one all ex-
plantations that may be desired in re-
gard to this subject.
