C., says: "I took Vinol for a hod loatod tw/1 |> UlrUUIt tuugu nuiuu uuu >??.. .... years, and the cough not only dlsap ' peared, but It built up my strength as well." g The reason VInol Is so efficacious In 8 such cases is because it contains in a ^ delicious concentrated form all the i, medicinal curative elements of cod y liver oil, with tonic, blood-building Iron added. Chronic coughs and colds yield,tc Vinol because it builds up the weak ened, run-down system. , You can get your money back anj time if Vinol does not do all we say Ladd's Drug Store, Cheraw, S.
