then rattle in the bulb like buck shot.
There he acknowledged himself nom

IS CONSUMPTION INHERITED ?
OPINION OF PROMINENT BACTERIoL-

AT HARVARD COLLEGE.

OPINION OF A PROMINENT BACTERIoL-
oaIsT GIVEN AT A RECENT LECTURE
AT HARVARD COLLEGE.
Prof. d. c. Ernst in recent lecture
before Harvard Medical school discussed
this theory at length. He claims that
consumption is not an inherited disease,
and that the children of parents who
have had tuberculosis are as likely to
grow up strong and healthy as children
OF parents who have not. DR.. Ernst
further claims that the cardinal means
for curing this dread disease are plenty
of fresh air, sufficient nutritious food,
rest and exercise.
For centuries physicians everywhere
have recognized the value of cod liver oil
In the treatment of consumption and all
wasting diseases, but unfortunately few
could take 1t with benefit on account Of
the indigestible oil.
Vinol has solved this problem. 1t is
the modern cod liver preparation with
out oil, made by scientific, extractive
and concentrating process from fresh
Gods livers, combining with peptonate
of iron, all the medicinal, healing and
bodybuilding elements of cod liver oil,
but no oil or grease. As q specific for all
throat and lung troubles, and as .
strength creator and body builder Vinol
