OF discussion in regard to advertised
medicines and their value. We want
to say to every man, woman and child

ually does contain all of the medicinal
curative elements of cod liver oil, taken
from fresh Gods livers, but without
drop Of oil, and is delicious to the
taste.
Vinol is recognized throughout the
world as the greatest strength-creator
for old people, weak, sickly women,
children, nursing mothers, and after
a severe sickness.

lung troubles. Unequalled to create
an appetite, and make those who are
too thin, fat, rosy and healthy.
