"yinol is a Godsend to old people,

appetite, sleep scundly, and feel ac-
tive and well today, thanks to Vinol.
When / was young cod liver oil was
dispensed in a greasy, unpalatable
form, and 1t fairly gagged me to get
it down. Vinol is entirely different,
very palatable and nourishing to i'm
poverished blood. 1t Is the finest
tonic and strength creator I ever used

Vinol is a real cod liver prepare
tion, from which the useless oil has
been eliminated and tonic iron added.
