AGED GRANDMOTHER
SO Weak She Could Hardly Stand
Made Stronq By Vinol,

Right here in Richmond we have
seen such excellent results from Vinol
that it is a pleasure to know it is doing
so much good for old people in other
parts of the country.
Woodbridge, n MY Grandma
was recovering from the grippe and
was so weak she could hardly stand,
and as she keeps house for my father
and myself. she could not get around
at all. She had taken cod liver oil and
many other medicines, but nothing
seemed to do her any good. At last
we heard of Vinol and tried it, and
Grandma commenced to feel better
right away, and got strong very soon,
so she gets around as we'll as ever,
We all praise Vinol for it Is a splen-
did medicine" Myrtle H. Bum
The reason Vinol is so successful
in restoring strength TO the aged is
because of the rare combination of
tonic iron, the curative medicinal
extractives of fresh Gods livers. beef
peptone and mild native wine. 1t
supplies iron to the blood, quickens
the appetite, aids digestion. promotes
proper assimilation Of food,< and en-
riches the blood, and brings back the
strength of renewed health. Glenn
