AFTER The GRIPPE
Vinol Restored This Mans
Strength

Several years ago was attacked by
a severe case OF grippe, which left me
with a hacking cough, soreness in my
chest, and bronchitis. 1 took nearly
every kind OF cough syrup sold on the
market, besides medicine given me by
physicians.
I received no permanent relief until
my druggist asked me TO try Vinol,
and after taking three bottles I was
entirely cured.
l believe Vinol to be the greatest
blessing ever offered to the public, as
it does what is claimed for it." r. E. r.
Hicks, Naplesville, Ala.
The reason Vinol cures chronic
coughs, colds and pulmonary troubles
is because it contains tonic iron and
all the healing and body building ele-
ments of cod liver oil but no oil.
Vinol is also unexcelled as strength
builder for old people, delicate children,
weak and rundown persons, and after
sickness.

One night we put in practice the
principle of arbitration, of which we
were all adherents. An argument had
arisen among us as to which was the
more simple of the two currency sys-
TENS. dollars and cents or pounds, shil-
lings and pence. At last, the captain
arriving. we decided to refer the mat
ter to him and to surrender our judg-
ment to his arbitration.
The captain. an Englishman of the
very stolid sCrt, after period of re-
fection replied very slowly and with
all the gravity of n Judge:
Pounds. shillings and pence is the
simpler system, for don't you know
that when you are told the price of a
thing in dollars and cents you always
have to convert it into pounds, shil-
| lnCs and pence"
There was a little objection to this
| theory, but in general it was perfectly
| satisfactory so long as the voyage

All the sufferer has to do is to in
