How To Stop
-
Stubborn Cough

We don't mean just stop the irri-
tation in your throat-but cure the
underlying cause.
Cough syrups cannot do this. 1t
takes a constitutional tonic body
builder to do the work properly
and cure you to stay cured. Vinol
is the remedy you need.
HERE Is PROOF
Mrs. Minnie Osgood, of Giens Falls,
n. ", writes,- after trying several REM
edies for a bad cough and cold without
benefit, L was asked to try Sinol. it
worked like magic. 1t cured my cold
and cough and gained in health and
strength. 1 consider Vinoi the most
wonderful tonic and invigo-ator ever
saw"
If we cannot stop that cough
with VINOL-our delicious cod
liver and iron tonic-which is made
without Olive will not charge
you a cent for the medicine you
buy. This seems like pretty fair
proposition-and ought to be &C
cepted. Don't you think SO? With
this understanding we ask you to
try a bottle of VINOL.
