COD LIVER OIL
TRANSFORMED
BY CHEMISTRY
Made Palatable and Digestible While
Retaining All Its Medical Qualities.
MAKES THE WEAK STRONG

The chemist, adding TO the sum of
human knowledge as the latter years
go by, may yet solve the secrets of
human existence. In the work that
may come To this result he is con-
tinualiy analyZing, separating. build
ing-in his toilsome effort to find what
is good and bad, and why. In no
branch of chemistry is this truer than
in the department of medicine. For
years a drug or natural product may
have been thought a specific; the
analysis OF the chemist demonstrates
that il is not the whole, but Il part,
that contains remedial virtue. If there
has been to the whole "a difficulty of
administration, or an unpleasantneSs
Of taste or some other property that
has hndered in its common youth,
ana 1t be found that the actual medi-
cinal parts may be disassociated from
this unpleasantness or difficulty, then
the chemist who makes the discovery
has proven his value TO his race.
No one will dispute the curative
value OF cod liver OIL For centuries
it has been recognized as the grandest
Of ell bodybuilding agents for wasted
human strength and vitality.
Heavy Oil IndigestibIe
Yet q great deal of the good that
should have been derived from its use
has been prevented by the fact that
many patients who were weakened by
disease could not digest the heavy oil,
either in its raw form or in an emul-
sion, and others would not take it on
account of its disagreeable odor and
taste.
Now modern science has proved
that the oil or greasy part has no
value whatever either as medicine
or food.
1t appears that the medicinal ele-
ments of which there are about fifty
different kinds found in the cod liver
represent all the tonic, body building
and curative powers of this famous
old remedy.
After twenty years study two emf
nent French chemists, Mourgues and
Gautier by name. discovered way to
separate these medicinal elements
from the oil and livers. and gave to
modern medicine all the valuable part
of cod liver oil, unencumbered by the
useless, oily, greasy part.
A preparation containing all these
medicinal elements, but entirely free
from oil or grease, therefore must be
the best tonic reconstructor possible.
Such is Vinol.
In no way does Vinol resemble cod
liver oil. It does not look, nor smell,

Delicious and Palatable.
Yet Vinol is guaranteed to contain
in highly concentrated form all the
medicinal elements actually taken
from fresh Gods livers, with organic
iron and other body building in
gradients, in Il deliciously palatable
and easily digested form.
In every case where old-fashioned
cod liver oil or emissions would do
good, Vinol will do more good, for
it is Immediately assimilated and is
acceptable To the weakest stomach:
for this reason ii is fast superceding
old-fashioned cod liver oil and emul-
sionS.
The elaborate process EMPLOYED TO
separate the medicinal, curative ele-
ments from the Gods livers, emitting
the oil entirely, is the only secret
about Vinol. It's simplicity is its
grandest feature, being absolutely free
from drugs and injurious ingredients.
1t is not patent medicine, as eyerv-
thing in it is named ON the label.
Vinol for the last six years has been
sold by the leading druggists i'm ali
the principal cities of the country
and in most of these stores it's sales
have equaiied, or more. the combined
sales of all other cod liver oil prepa-
ratlohs, winch goes TO prove its SUI
periority. AS body builder and
strength creator for old people weak
women, puny children, and after sick
ness, and for all pulmonary diseases
it is guaranteed by over two Thousand
of the leading druggists Of the coun-
try TO be the best they ever sold. w
