DR, J, E. ENNIS-
Atlanta, Ga., Physician Andresses the
People of Walterboro on a Matter
of Health.
"To Whom It May Concern:—Of late
there has been a good deal of discussion
in regard to advertised medicines, their
value and iiower to cure.
I want to say to the people of Walter
boro that 1 believe the most valuable
cod liver oil preparation, the best body
builder, health restorer,* and strength
creator, known to medicine today is
Vinol.
W hile Vinol c’oes not contain the sys
tem c’ogging oil of old-fashioned cod
liver oil and emulsions, it actually does
contain all the carative, medicinal prin
ciples of the cod’* liver in a highly con
centrated form, and it is delicious to
take.
1 advise Viuol in my practice, and
find it has no equal for healing coughs,
colds, broDchiai troubles and sore lungs.
I have used Vinol in many cases of
indigestion, mal-essimilation, and for
patients who were anaemic and run
down, with splendid results. I have
found Viuol to be a boom to the aged,
as it aids the enfeebled system to sus
tain life: if induces appetite, and rest
ful sleep, it is a real body-builder, aud
thus prolongs life.
I believe Viuol to be well worthy of
any honest physician’s endorsement?”
Ourloc'd druggist, John M. Klein^
sells Vinol to the people of Walterboro
on a positive guarantee; if it fails to give
satisfaction the entire purchase will be
refunded.

headache or dizzineea, or If your food

ment of hundreds of physicians of emi
nence in their piofassion, who prescribe
