This getting up every night with the baby, or some of the older children, is all wrong. Not that the children are to blame. If he’s the baby, prob ably his food is wrong. Vinol will help his mother stand the strain of nursing. We have often seen whole families of older children who keep the parents awake o’ nights. First one, then the other is ailing. These children seem well enough at times; but they are white, hollow-eyed, often list less, with irregular appetites, peevish and fretful, wakeful at night and constantly taking cold. The use of Vinol, in conjunc tion with Vinlax to regulate the bowels, will benefit these child ren almost in a day. There is nothing in Vinol that can nurt them. It is pleasant to take. If it doesn’t do the work, we will give you the money back. CHEROKEE DRUGiCO DKUOG1ST8 William S. Hall. Jk. James a. Willis. HALL & WILLIS, A LTORNKYS AT bAW. STAK THKATItK BLDG. OAl-^tTJNlfcC Y. ».
