AGED GRANDMOTHER
So Weak She Could Hardly Stand
 Made Strong by VinoI.

Right here in Norwich 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 J-.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 noth- ing seemed to do her any good. At last we heard of Vinol and tried it, and Grandma commenced to feel bet ter right away. ana got strong very soon, so she gets aronud as well as ever. We all praise Yinol for it is a splendid medicine.D Myrtle H. Bum.
 The reason Vinol is so successful in restoring strength to the aged is because of the rare combination of tonic irons the curative medicinal ex- tractives of fresh cods, flyers, beef peptone and mild native wine. IL sup plies 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. G. O. EngleE.
