USEFUL FACTS.
About Coughs. Colds and Bronchial
Troubles to the People of Ameri- I
Gus, by Ou Druggist,
j G. Dodson.

I'm conducting large drug business
we naturally meet great many people
this season of the year who suffer
from coughs, colds and bronchial
troubles
AS these troubles are easily con-
trolled it the right means is taken, we
want 20 say to the people of Americas
that we GU 'rantee our cod liver oil pro.
paration, Vin0l, will cure hanging on
colds, stubborn coughs, bronchial lung
troubles, quicker than any preparation
we have ever sold, because it is the most
perfect preparation of cod liver oil ever
compounded. II contains no oil or
grease to clog the system and upset
the stomach, yet it does contain every
one of the fifty odd medicinal elements
actually taken from fresh coda livers
n highly concentrated form, and is
therefore, the best cod liver preparation
obtainable. Vlnolis not patent medi-
cine; everything in it is named on the
back label of the bottle and you know
what you are taking, so without reser-
Vation we endorse and guarantee Viz
mol to strengthen every organ In the
body to do its work as nature intended
to cure coughs, colds, bronchial
troubles, increase the appetite. build
up the run down, tired and debilitated,
and create strength and renewed vitality
for the aged.
If Vinol fails to do what we say We
will refund eve.y dollar paid for it.
You know us and know we will do $40
we agree, J, G, DOdson, Druggist.
