cough svrups but they did me no good.
finally got 80 weak / was not able to
do day work, and coughed so much
was alarmed about my condition. One
evening I read about Vinol and decided
to try It. Before had taken quarter
Of bottle felt better, and after taking
two bottles my cough is entirely cured,
all the bad symptoms have disappeared
and have gained new win and energy. -

The reason vinol is SO successful in
such cases is because the active medic
inal principles of cod liver oil contained
n Vinol rebuilds wasting tissues and
supplies strength and vigor to the nerves
and muscles while the tonic iron and
wine assist the red corpuscles of the
blood to absorb oxygen and distribute
it through the system, thus restoring
health and strength to the weakened,
diseased organs of the body.

 Knockout Brown the Greek strong boy has found himeelf in peculiar predicament Flo hoa literally fought himself out Of Q fight. Every time tho Spartan has been called upon he has deiivered-but too well His op- ponenta seldom wanted to take on tho tough Greek again, being content to let it go at whateyered the decision was the last tlme and pick softer com tests in the middleweight class,
 Brown has never been knocked out and while shaded In short bouts, oc. casionally has heen Of Che opinion that in Q long fight would give 6 better ac. count of himself Others share that opinion and have tried to help him obtain matches with Jim Clabby Mike Gibbons, Eddie MeGoorty and the oih- CT topnotchers but they seem not to care for bis game.
 Now Brown is wrathy and is going Go make his own division recognize him even if he has to step into the class above and give away 20 to 50 pounds every time he fights. If Brown makes good in the heavyweight diyis- lon, and there is every reason to be. lleyo on the strength of his record that lot Of the white hopes would be easy for him, then the middleg will certainly have to come to him.
 The Greek Is not pretty boxer, but he is a tough, hardhittlng middle. weight-the kind that sets tho crowd wild by willingness to fight and fight hard every minute. Making t58 pounds is meerely matter of good condition with him so he will really be nothing more than a middleweight when tack ling the big fellows
 Brown will make 16S pounds at any time he can get a battle and he will concede weight to nearly anyone.
