MACON, Ga. CHILD
Made Strong and Well by VinOl.

When we tell you that Vinol is the
best remedy in our whole stock for
making weak, puny, ailing children
strong, robust and rosy we are only
telling you what has been proved by
hundreds of mothers.
J. L. Tickling, Macon, Ga, says:
my child was very thin and delicate,
no appetite, nervous and did not
sleep well. Doctors did not help her.
Vinol was recommended and the
change after fair trial was wonder
full. She sleeps soundly all night, has
a splendid appetite and has gained IN
weight. / wish every mother knew
what Vinol will do for delicate chill
dren."
What Vinol did for this little girl
II will do for every weak and ailins
child because sickly children need
the strengthening cod liver clemens
and the tonic iron that Vinol con-
tains-that is why Vinol builds them
up quickly and gives them fine,
healthy color. 1t is pleasant to take
