MODERN PRESCRIBING
The Methods of Better
Than
THEY WERE YEARS AGO.
The Patients Lot Also Much I'm
pyoved.-Large Doses OF NauS-
eating Medicine No Longer
Necessary.

Our toefarthers did not have such =
delightful time. after all. Just think
of the roundabout way they were OBJ
Iged to accomplish the many thing.
that are done by us every day, al
most without thought, by means OF
modern Inventions. Then think OF
what happend to them when they
were sick. Lucky was the man who
was not pounced upon by doctor
and often literally bled to death.
That was only starter of what was
soon to follow. Long, deep draughts
brew ed from horrible tasting herbs
were continually administered
Remedies withou, number, each
worse than the other, followed quicK-
ly. No wonder SO many of our an
cestors died young. No wonder life
insurance statistics show that we
come from a short lived race.
IL is in medicine like everything
else. The day Of barbarlsm IN treat
ment is nearly over. No longer does
the doctor deprive the patient of his
very life's blood right at time when
be needs every particle Of strength.
No longer does he compel the poor
sufferer to absorb untold amounts of
barks, herbs and mineral solutions
right at a time when nature should
be left to herself to stIaighteu out
bat M ght only be slight trouble
The modern physician knows that
he can administer the vital principles
of his remedies IN a concentrated
form. You do not find your doctor
brewing a tea or asking you TO chew
huge quantities of Cinchona Bark
where Quinine is necessary. No
longer does he administer bolus of
Opium to deaden pain. Not much.
A hypodermic syringe charged with.
the active principles of opium; NOR
pbIne does the work better and does.
not do as much damage for nature to
repair.
Right on this line comes news of
recent discovery that will undoubt
edly prove to be the most valuable
one yet made. 1t is that OF Ninol,
which is nothing more or less than a
concentrated extract of the active
medicinal principles found in the
liver + the liver cod.
The abnve explanation is about all
that Is necessary TO give ore, in order
that he may understand the full
value of this discovery. Every one
knows the uses for which cod liver oil
has been prescribed. Every one
knows its Objectionable features.
Every one realizes that there are
many cases of wasting diseases that
could have been cured by the use of
col liver oil had it been possible to
administer the obnoxious remedy;
but every one does not KIN wv that
when they were taking cod liver oil in
it's old form, they Were absorbing into
the system vast amount of vile
smelling, obr demonstrating grease
that was absolutely powerless of
doing them any good, but were simply
taking it because it was vehicle
that conveyed the peculiar medicinal
principles that if was the intention OF
the doctor to give to them.
Here is where this new discovery
will benefit the world. These piinci
pies, separated from the fat and all
other unnecessary features, dissolved |
in delicious table wine, can now be
even to the most deli
cate patient without its being appar-
ent that cod liver oil or anything con-
nected with it is being taken. The
greater strength of the new prepare
ton will also enable the patient to re-
cieve a greater amount of necessary
than was possible TO admin
ister before. The consequence will
be that the good for which the medi-
cine is desired will be accomplished
in much quicker time. The harm
that was formerly caused to stomachs |
weakened by disease will be
entirely averted aud the result viii |
be that Ninol in but few years will |
entirely supersede, as medicine, cod |
liver oil in any other known form.
Mr.. w. A. Dozier, our leading drug
gls t, is interested in Vinol.
