HOW WEAK WOMEN
May Be Made Strong at Small
Expense and No Risk

There are hundreds of women in
this vicinity, weak, thin, rundown,
tired out and nervous. Such women
need Vinol just as much as did Mrs.

San Francisco. Cal, who says:
81 have used Vinol for some time
with particularly gratifying results. I
was run down, weak and debilitated,
and my appetite was gone. After TAX
ing several bottles of Vinol | found
my condition greatly improved, and
do not hesitate to recommend Vinol
to anyone similarly affected"
Vinol is not a secret nostrum, but
a delicious cod liver and iron tonic
without oil, which will create an ap-
petite, tone up the digestive organs,
make pure blood and create strength.

returned if 1t does not help you.
