Whatever the cause, we want to say to every person who needs strength, you need Vinol, our delicious rod liver and iron tenlo without oil, as it is the most efficient strength creator we have in our store. Here is proof from Dor chester, Mass.: "t don't know what we would do without Vinol In our family, I was weak, nervous and run-down as the result of an operation, and Vinol re stored my strength. Then Grandmoth er had a nervous breakdown, and Vin ol built her up and restored her healfli and strength after everything else had failed. We have used Vinol for 13 years in our family, and would net be without it in the house," Myrtle L. Kealy, Dorchester, Mats, Wo believe in Vine! because we know it is a great strength creator due to the attractive medioinal ele ments of fresh eed livers, without oil, combined with peptenate of Iron and beef pepiena, all dissolved in a pure medicinal wine, so wa always return tho purchase money if Y'nol fails to benefit those who buy it.
