THE TWO IAVIACIBLES.
Cod Liver Oil and Iron.

Cod liver oil and iron in some
form or other are presided by ply
sicians the world over, more than
any other two remedies the world
has ever known, for anemia or
poor blood, weakness, GONZALES
ence, and all wasting and pull
monary diseases.
Iron, because it the basis of the
blood and without a sufficient
amount the blood is impoverished,
watery, pale and impure.
Cod Liver Oil, because it con.
tains curative and reconstructive
qualities greater than that pos
sessed by any other one medicinal
agent.
In Vinol, modern scieuce has
given to the world a combination
Of these two world-famed tonics-
Cod Liver Oil and Iron, but shorn
Of all useless oil or disagreable
features.
Vinol is made by a scientific,
extractive and concentrating pro-
cess Gods Of livers, combining
with peptonate -of-iron all the
medicinal, healing, body building
elements of cod liver oil, but nc

AS a body-builder and strength
creator for old people, delicate
children, weak, run down persons
after sickness, and for Chronic
Cough, Colds, Bronchitis, and al
throat and lung troubles, Vinol il
unexcelled.
We ask Salisbury people to give
Vinol a trial. It won't cost any

GOwan'S Philosophy

A man will pay a spiritualist five dollars to tell him something a.
bout the future; he will give a palmist two dollars for a reading;
he will invest four dollars in post cards; he will tip the waiter for
bringing him a wretched meal; he will send a hurry up call for
a doctor if he finds he has a little cough and pay five dollars for a
professional visit, and that same man hasn't the fifty cents "to
spare" to buy a bottle of Gowans Pneumonia Cure which is a life
insurance in itself and which will save all kinds of fright and deten-
ton. The reason for this is simply because man thinks he will get
