"Owing to this changeable climate and unseasonable weather, there has been a good deal of sickness in Walter boro during the past few weeks," said onr leading druggist, John M Klein, "and we want to say to the people of Walterboro that the one thing to aid recovery after sickness is to give the patient a blood-bnilding and health restoring tonic, one that will create an appetite and give srteugth to every or gan in the body." "Now,” continued Mr Klein, "from an intimate knowledge of almost every medicine on the market, we do not be lieve there is another remedy in the country equal to our delicious ood liver oil preparation, Vino! for this purpose." V mol is not a patent medicine, as everything in it is named on the beck label ot every bottle; it contains every one of the body-building, medicinal elements of cod liver, actually taken from fresh cod’s livers, but without, a drop of the system-dogging oil to upset the stomach and retard its work, it acts direct^ on the stomach, up the organs, creates a berty appetite, makes pore rich, red biota, healthlyfleeb andmusele tissue end creates strength for every organ in the body. Edgar A. Howe of Concord, N. H., says that after a long, eevere sickness he was weak and emaciated, all tonics teemed of no avail, hot Ylnoi restored ie a marvelous manner, health, strength appetite. If V mol fails to build ep the ran- down aod oonvalfsoent, give new life and strength to the aged, cure stomach •troubles, hard oolds and hanging on oonghe, we cheerfully refund every dol lar paid us for it.
