CONSUMPTION
Mainly Caused by Chronic Colds and
Hanging-On Coughs.

A member of the firm of Rickert 4
Wells has given good deal of time to
the study Of consumption, and finds that
comparatively few cases are hereditary.
Mostly all are caused by neglected
coughs and colds, which gradually
weaken the whole pulmonary system,
and before people realize it there is a
diseased spot in one lung; splitting blood
soon follows and eventually a collapse.
Such an unnecessary end, such a pity,
for all could have been so different We
know Of hundreds of cases where our
wonderful cod liver oil preparation,
Ninol, has saved young and valuable
life, which without it would have been
sacrificed. We have letters from people
who were given up to die, and who pos
itively state that Ninol, and Ninol
alone, saved their lives when all else
had failed to help them
Viuol is able to cure hauging-on colds
and stubborn coughs, because it is the
most perfect preparation of cod liver
oil ever compounded; ii contains no oil
or grease to upset the delicate stomach,
yet il does contain every one OF the
fifty odd medicinal curative elements
actually taken from fresh Gods liyers,
ana we freely and publicly state that
we will supply all the Vnlol we think
necessary to cure any case OF chronic
coughs, hanging-on colds or weak and
debiitated conditions Of Barre people,
