HOW CHRONIC COUGHS
Are Being Cured by Vinol.

Did you ever cough for month?
Then just think how distressing it
must be to have cough hang on for
three months.
Mrs. Maria Primrose, Of 81 Newell
Street, Brooklyn, N. Y, says: Il had
a very heavy cold which settled into
chronic cough, which kept me
awake nights for fully three months,
and felt tired all the time because my
rest was broken so much. The effect
of taking your cod Ter and iron rem
edy, Vinol, is that my cough is gone.
I can now get good nights rest, and
] feel much stronger in every way
It is the combined action of the
medicinal elements, Gods livers, aided
by the blood-making and strength
creating properties of tonic iron which
makes Vinol SO efficient in curing
chronic coughs, colds and bronchitis
at the same time building up the
weakened, rundown system.
Try bottle of Vinol, with the un-
derstanding that your money will
be returned if it does not help you.
