KEEP R0NG
VinOl is a Wonderful Tonic
and Strengthened.
The Reason Why
We Endorse 1t So
alphabetically.

We have had considerable experience
in being able to watch the effects pro-
duced by various tonies. We can en-
phatically state that we know of nothing
that will act as a general rebuilder,
strength restorer and flesh creator, bet
ter than Vinol.
When we feel as sure as we do of the
good that can be accomplished by this
scientific remedy, it would seem strange
did we not endorse it and recommend it
as highly as we are continually doing.
1t is painful for us to see any of our
friends or fellow townspeople, weak and
debilitated and unable to enjoy life and
in a condition where they are apt to
succumb to some serious illness, when
we feel as sure as we do, that If they
would but take Vinol, they would find
it to be strength builder and health
maintainer.
We know that Viraol contains in
highly concentrated form, those impor-
tant medicinal elements that have always
made cod liver oil famous. We know
also that Vinol does not contain grease
and is delicious to take and we know best
of all of hundreds of people who have
been cured and made strong by it. Here
is one of many.
Mrs. G. ". HENRY, 205 First Ave,
Joliet, Illinois, says:
II take the greatest of pleasure in
recommending such fine toning and
Strengthening medicine as Vinol. T felt
run down and was always tired. I had
no appetite and did not seem to digest
the food I ate properly. J have been
taking Vinol for about two weeks and
feel strong and we'll. L now thoroughly
enjoy my meals and my domestic and
social duties, which used to fatigue me,
are now. a source of pleasure. I am now
sincere friend of Vinol."
When we talk of VinoH, we know
whereof we speak and will refund
your money If you are not satisfied
after giving 1t fair trial, that what
we tell yoss about 1t Is absolutely true.

an accident at the head of Coon

1t is customary for the pilots TO back
water when making the curve, but

pushed ahead.
The how boa, athfinder struck the
head of one of the islands causing
the big boat to swing around and

strong current and one half tioated
down the main river. IL will be "a
week or ten days before the wreck

occurred. The cost of the damage
done will fall upon Capt. Winans, as
