Overworked, run-down, "fagged Out" women who feel as though they could hardly drag about, should profit Ly Miss Rlchter's experience. Sho Bays: "Last winter I was completely run down and felt fagged out all the time, was nervous and bad indigestion. "One of my friends advised me to take Vinol, and it has done me great good. The tired, worn-out feeling is all gone, and I am strong, vigorous and well. The stomach trouble soon disappeared and now I eat heartily and hi-re perfect digestion. I wish every tired, weak, nervous woman could have Ylnol. for I never spent any money In my life that did me so much good as that I spent for Vlnol." Uarie Richter, Detroit, Mich. Thousands of women and men who were formerly weak and sickly owe their present ragged health to the wonderful strength-creating effects of Vinol. We guarantee Vlnol to build you up and make you strong. If It does not, we give back your money. W. B. ARDREY, Druggist, FORT MILL. S.
