After Taking McCOy's

The greatest strength-giver and
producer of good healthy flesh is
Cod Liver Oil. It's full of vita
mines.
But it's nasty notwithstanding
and hard to take, and usually up
sets the stomach.
Thank goodness! we don't have to
take it from the bottle any more,
for now Peoples drug stores and
all druggists are selling McCoy's
Cod Liver Oil Tablets, sugar-coated
and as easy to take as candy, so
that you can get the real Cod
Liver Oil in condensed form and
get just the same results as with
the horrible smelling liquid.
Men and women, weak, thin and
nervous, are urged to put on
weight and get back their health
and strength with these wonderful
tablets.
One woman gained Is pounds in
five weeks and that's going fast
enough for anyone.
Only 60 cents for 60 tablets, and
If they don't put five pounds of
flesh on any thin person in thirty
days-why, money back and no
Quibbling about 1t, either.
