AGED KINGSTON WOMAN
Tells How She Recovered Her
 Strenuth.

If the elderly people in Kingston could only realize what Vinol would do for them we would not be able to get enough to supply the demand. Following is a letter received from Mrs. A. E. Carson of this town. She says:-
 T am 69 years of age, and had keen ailing for long time with indiges- ton. l got run down, was weak, dizzy and could not sleep at night. I con- suited two doctors who said had age could not expect to. be strong again. My daughter would give me no peace until I tried Vino1 as it lad done so much for her. l have taken live bottles and my health and strength have come back, so I am able to do all the housework for my family of four, and l am recommending Vinol to all my friends"
 The reason Vinol is so beneficial to old people is because it contains the very elements needed to replace de- ,clining strength with renewed yigor, viz: beef and cod liver peptones, iron and manganese peptonates, glycero- phosphates and mild tonic ~ine
 We want to ask every elderly per- son and every weak run down or de- sbilitated person in Norwich to call at our store and get a bottle of Vinol. with the understanding that we will return your money if it fails to benefit. : Broadway Pharmacy, G. G. Engler, Proprietor, Norwich. VinoI is sold in ,Willimantic by the Wilson Drug Co., in Danielson by the A. w. Williams Pharmacy, and in Putnam by J. F. iDonahue.
