Only
One Key
That Fits

We have found that nearlyall the
general medicines that are popular
seek first to promote appetite and
help digestion, then to apply
needed elements which almost all
ailing people require.
Probably iron is the most i'm
portant of these needed elements,
yet it is very hard to give iron so
it will do any good.
There are thousands of keys in
the world - only one or two UNI
lock your door. So we know
of only one or two combinations
Of iron that seem to do the work.
By far the most generally useful
prescription we know of is Vinol.
/, We mention this by name, because
we know what it is made of, how
it is made, and how wonderfully
helpful it has been in numerous
cases in this very town.
/ Vinol contains the medicinal
qualities of cod liver oil, iron-that-
can-be-digested, and little table
wine. It is pleasant to take, and
we have so much faith in it that
we will sell a bottle to anyone
suffering from loss of appetite, a
rundown condition, tendency to
colds, or to weak women and pale
children, etc., and cheerfully give
you the money back if it does not
help you.
