WHY 1000 DRUGGISTS

Guarantee and Recommend YinOI
If any one should know the value
of medicine it is the retail drur-
gist who sells it.
Therefore, when over seven thous-
and of the best retail druggists in
the country recommend Vinol, our de-
licious cod liver and iron tonic, with,
out oil, as the greatest tonic recon-
structor and strength creator they
have ever sold, it must indicate the
value of Vinal.
We could publish columns Of sucl
Testimony as the following:
J. c. Brady, druggist of Fall Rivec,
Mass, says: an cases where cod
liver oil, emulsions and other tonics
fail, vinol will heal, strengthen and
cure"
g. A, Potterfeld, druggist Of
Charleston, W. Va, says: at is a
pleasure to sell Vinol as it gives such
universal satisfaction"
Hunter & MCGEE, druggists o.
Jackson, Miss, says: We have great
confidence in the strength creating
and curative value of Vinol."
We ask every rundown, nervous,
de bilitated, aged or weak erson or
any person suffering from chronic
coughs, colds, or bronchitis, to try
bottle of Vinol with the understand
ing that their money will be returned
if it does not do all we claim. Hooks
