It would linvo been locked up now but
from tho fact that the judge OF one our

ROYAL TONIC
Beats Anything We Ever Sold as
Strength-Creator and Body
Builder

Our well-known druggist. milford r.
Burt. Is very enthusiastic over the
delicious cod liver oil preparation, which
contains no oil. In referring to the
matter, said Mr.. Burt, eve sell many
remedies that claim to he invigorators
and strength-creators We do this be-
cause we are druggists. and it is our
business to supply the public with what
they want.
When our advice is asked however, in
regard to a tonic, body builder or
strength creator, we invariably recon-
mend Vinol, as we know of nothing that
can compare with it.
In Vinol modern science has given us
all the tonic, building and curative
properties of that famous old remedy
cod liver oil, actually taken from fresh
Gods livers, without drop of the obnox-
ious and system-cl7gging grease which
characterizes old fashioned cod liver oil
and emulsions, and which has proved
such drawback.
VinOl is not patent medicine, as the
label on each bottle tells everything it
contains, therefore you know exactly
what you are taking.
In the most natural manner it tones
up the digestive organs, creates hearty
appetite, makes rich, red blood, and
strengthens every organ in the body to
do its work as nature intended.
Our faith in Vinol is so strong that we
gladly offer to refund the money in
every case where it fails to give satisfac-
