WEAK AND TIRED WOMAN
Tells How VinOl Made Her Strong.

Maysville women who are weak
rundown and suffer from the conse-
quent effects of such a condition, will
be interested in Mrs. Odell's letter
She says:
Il am a farmers wife and was all
rundown, weak, tired, and suffered
from indigestion, and sometimes 1t
seemed as though | could not keep
around and do my homework. had
taken many medicines without benefit.
One day saw Vinol advertised, and
made up my mind to try it. | have
taken four bottles and have gained
seven pounds in weight, am much
stronger, and feel many years young
er than before" Sarah Odell, Lock-
port, N. Y.
The reason Vinol builds up weak,
rundown women so quickly is be-
cause it contains delicious combina-
ton of most successful tonics, beef
and cod liver peptones, iron and man
ganese peptonates and glycerophos-
pilates, in mild tonic wine.
We want to say to every weak, |
rundown, oyerworked woman in
that we will return your
money IL Vinol fails to help you as it
did Mrs. Odell. ]. c. Pecor Drug Co.,
