OLD AGE.
Our Local Druggists Tell People OF
Raleigh How to Ward it OFF.

Some people at fifty call themselves
old, and really appear So While others
at seventy seem active, vigorous and
young.
A reporter of the News and Observ-
er happened in the store of W. H.
King Drug Co., our local druggists,

was brought up. Said Mr.. King, of
the above firm, "It is a fact, and we
see it illustrated every day right here
in Raleigh 1t is not years; old age
does not begin at any set time, but it
person old. A severe sickness, weak
ened digestion, thin blood or poor
circulation soon starts vitality on the
Wane and then a person rapidly ages
"On the other hand" continued Mr.
King, "if the people of Raleigh only
knew how our cod liver preparation,
Vinol, wards off old age, we would
not have clerks enough in our store
to supply the demand.
''You see Vinol contains all the
vitality making, bodybuilding princl-
pies of cod liver OIL but without a
drop of the system-clogging oil. 1t
strengthens digestive organs, makes
rich, red blood, repairs worn tissues,
checks the natural decline and re-
places weakness with strength.
Zone good customer of NInol, VINO
is seventy-eight years of age, says he
would not take $1,000 for the good it
has done him, and we wish every aged
person in Raleigh would try Vinol on
our guarantee to return money if it
fails w. II. King Drug Co.
