Of How E. L. Marshall of Shreveport, Lay Was Cured of a Stomach Trouble That Kept Him Out of Work for Months.

Shreveport, La. -tEI had a bad stomach trouble for years and became so weak 1 could hardly walk or do any work. My appetite was very poor, then my food would not digest, Ibfoated and was very weak and nervous, and it seemed impossible to get any relief. Twas SO bad could not work for months at time. tried too many remedies to name, but without help. I saw Vinol advertised and tried it, and soon noticed an improvement. I continued it's use and now my stomach trouble is com pletely cured. 1 am we'll man enjoy ing perfect health and have gained in weight. ''-E. L. MARSHALL, Shreve- port, La
 The recovery of Mir. Marshall was due to the combined action of the medi- cinal tissue building clements of the extract of cod's rvers, aided by the blood making and strength creating properties of tonic iron, contained in Vinol, which seldom fails to strengthen and tone up the tired, Over-taxed and weakened nerves of the stomach and remove the trouble.
