Bob hastily apologized for the fig-

was very restful no doubt. but he was
quite rested now. Any more padded

He looked at the view and expatiated
upon it. even calling attention to GER

touch of color and they were just the
kind of flowers he liked-good. old

all this and still tell the truth. The
medico studied him attentively: then
he concluded he would risk It and
permit Bob to stay in the room.

pulled up the thread the tooth brush

thread something else and instead OF

get those bars out; it took him. then,

Grippe leaves the blood in a thin

the appetite and leaves one weak, with
out energy and often in dangerous
condition.
In order to restore the blood to
healthy condition, iron must be supplied
in an easily assimilated form. We
guarantee this may be done by Vinol,
