There has reached US rumOrS nt IL new
discovery. Something that will revOlu-
tiOniz" the practice Of medicine. a
remedy that has given sufferers from
wasting diseases hopes Of renewed
health and prolonged life.
OF enough importance have these
stories appeared that a special inter.
view with W. Z. Pelham & Son, OF
Newberry, who are interested them
selves in this new preparation which IS
called VinOl, was thought advisable.
Our reporter had no difficulty IN ind
ing w. E. Pelham & Sons place OF
business. The first man he met said:
"Oh YES, w. f. Pelham & Son are the
men who have the wonderful new rem
edy that will cure everything that peo,
pie always thought cod liver Oil would
help, land he was speedily directed to
this enterprising and busy establish
ment. w. z. Pelham & Son are busl-
| ness from the word go, but rather OBJ
iected to this preparation being spread
abroad as discovery.
"Why," said w. E. Pelham & Son,
| ''this is no more new discovery than
| was the moon when it was first viewed
through 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 discovery. but what we
have found has been known for years.
and it il 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 pre-
scribed by SO many physicians. You
see it is just this way. Cod liver OH
(perhaps you have taken it yourself) is
something that is very valuable IN all
sorts of wasting diseases, and in Itself
is extremely disagreeable. Why |
| firmly believe that great many cases
of consumption, even, could be cured II
! it was possible for the patient to take
enough cod liver oil to let its virtues
| become manifest. For those who have
a tendency to sore throat, bronchitis,
coughs, colds, for every one OF an ane-
mic disposition, it has always been
considered as simply Invaluable; and
vet it has more often been necessary to
abandon it's use than it has been possl-
BILE to devise way OF administering IL:
Two eminent French chemists started
in and got INTERESTED in the matter,
and after years of study they have sue
ceeded in extracting from the liver OF
the cod just what is necessary, and
have left behind that obnoxious, greasy,
vile.tasting fatty matter, the thought
of which even has turned the stomschs
of thousands. That is all over now.
We have found a way OF getting the
kernel out of the nut.
This Vinol that is so much talked
about is just exactly thai. 1t IS the
concentrated extract of medicine found
in the Gods liver that does the good
The grease is like the shell Of the nut,
absolutely useless, only it is different
to the shell of the nut bee ,usa besides
Ueing useless it is extremely obnoxious
and disagreeable to sight, taste and
smell.
We have now taken this extract and
put sufficient quantity of 1t in a de-
demonstrating table wine We have
also added q small amount Of organic
iron. This heightens the tonic effect
/ of the wine. The extract Of the Gods
liver comes in just the right proportion
to do the greatest amount of good.
/ Here, drink this" said Mr.. Pelham.
as he reached for a bottle aud poured
forth what appeared to be, and which
smelled like. delicious, rich wine.
The reporter hesitated. The thought
| of Gods livers, or anything to do with
them, brought back memories OF the
past, when he himself had made heroic
struggles to take that awful medicine.
''Go ahead and drink II, said Mr.. Pei
bam The reporter did so, and looked
up. "Yes, know, but that Is all right.
l thought you were going to give me
some of that Vinol you were talking
about, and did not know that it was
YOUR custom to treat a man intervie n
| ing you, to drink like that"
Mr.. Pelham laughed. We'll, that is
Vinol that you have taken. Now you
know that part of what I have told you
is true. It did not taste bad, did it?'
And it surely did not. "Now,' said
Mr.. Pelham, "let me tell you something
| else. You have just taken, condensed,
of the curative principles Of the Gods
liver what you would find in fifty per
cent. of its volume of cod liver oil. You
can therefore imagine that ii it is ne
| cesssry to take this remedy, how much
easier IL Will Ce 10 UeflVe uSueuV lfOit
| it than it used to be when cod liver oil
| was administered. Do you realize that
formerly you only obtained a small
proportion of these same curative prop
critics in whole pint of that horrible
oi.? Doesn't that tell the story to you?
"You will have TO excuse me now,
for, as you see, l am more than driven.
Of course am getting the advantage
of the discovery by being directly con-
nected with the Boston house"
The reporter thanked M. Pelham
for his kindness, and left him, wonder
ing to himself whether after all a 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.
