♦ Would you like to feel Young Again? r ita. \\X l\ vl Many old people are lame, nearly all are weak. Worst of all, is that feeling of languor, of inability to act, of weariness at trifling exertion. Nothing will make the old young again, but Vinol will prevent 99 out of 100 old people from feeling so old. 4 There is no humbug about it. We found out about Vinol, and tried it every way before we decided to put it on the market and guarantee it. Now we believe that almost any tired, discouraged old person who will take a bottle of Vinol and use it as directed will feel better right away. It will increase their strength, relieve their lameness and brighten their spirits. It does this by nourishing. Don’t blame the old folks for being blue and cross. Take home a bottle of Vinol.
