The gravity of enlargement of the stomach
cannot be oyerestmated. One of the principal
causes that produce this distressed condition

Of the muscles that propel the food to the intes-
tines is also factor in allowing the food to
accumulate In the stomach, and thus stretch
ing it to enormous size. Constipation and in
activity of the liver is also prominent cause.
In this condition you usually find coated
tongue, thirst, loss OF appetite, emaciation,
oppression at the pit of the stomach, belching
of fetid gas and vomiting OF sour liquid, vary
ing in amount. Weakness, paieness and want
Of energy are usually present.
Now, to overcome this distressing and dan.
gerous enlargement of the stomach and all its
symptoms, take Smiths Pineapple and Butter.

OLD FOLKS
Their Days Maye Be Prolonged-HOw
the Evening of Life May Be Made
Happier for All.

IF people only knew the good that
Vinol does old people" said Mr.. Wells
of Rickert Il Wells, our well known
druggists, columns of space in our news
papers would be devoted to the subject
can truly say that we have never
sold anything in our stese equal TO
Ninol as strengthened and body builder
for old people.
"You see, with old age comes feeble
ness and loss of power, the organs act
more slowly and less efTectually than
in youth, the appetite is poor, the diges-
tion weak, and there is not that same
renewal of body tissue.
There is nothing more pitiful to me
than to see old people tottering around.
] know that Vinol cannot bring back
lost years, but it viii lengthen life and
brighten the years that remain.
we are hearing from all over the
country remarkable results which prove
my statement, and we have received
letters from sons and daughters of old
people telling how father or mother has
been made well and happy by the vigor
and strength which Vinol brings the
old
IT was only few days ago a letter
was brought to my attention from Mr..
John q. Nichols of Lawrence, Mass,
in which he said that he was eighty
four years old, and he had not felt so
we'll for fifteen years as he had since
taking Ninol; it gave him a good appe-
tite, and he feels strong and well, and
is working every day from six o'clock
in the morning until FIVE o'clock at
night
ut is just this way" continued Mr..
Wells, "Vinol invigorates the stomach
first of all, creates an appetite and
enables the stomach to separate from
fod the elements needed for rich. red
blood, healthy body material and sound
steady nerves. In this natural manner
it repairs worn tissues, checks the nat.
nral decline and replaces weakness with
strength.
"For any one suffering from any
weakened, rundown condition Vinol will
do the same; and it is because We
know so well what Vinol viii do that
we guarantee its action, and we will
gladly refund the money paid for it to
any one who is not satisfied. / wish
every old person in this vicinity would
try Ninol ON our guarantee. If it does
not satisfy, then it will not cost them
a cent. Riekert \ Wells, Druggists.
