Mrs. Michael Bloom of Lewistown, Pa., who is 80 years of age, says: For a long time I have been so feeble that I have had to be wheeled around in an invalid’s chair. I had no strength and took cold at the slightest provo cation, which invariably settled on my lungs, and a cough would result. My son learned of the cod liver prep aration called Vlnol, and procured a bottle for me. It built up my strength rapidly, and after taking three bottles I am able to do most of my work, and I can walk a quarter of a mile easily. Every aged or weak person who re quires strength should try Vinol. I am delighted with what it has done for me.’ As a body builder and strength crea tor for old people, delicate children weak, run-down persons and after sick ness, Vinol s unexcelled.
