It contains ALL the medicinal elements of cod liver
oil, actually taken from genuine, fresh cod-livers,
with organic iron, and other body building ingredi

Chronic Colds — Hacking Coughs.
Sure signs of danger ahead. VINOL is the exact medicine needed. It does
not upset the stomach, and it surely heals and renews the irritated, diseased sur
faces that cause the cough. Try it at our risk.
I
Bronchitis—Sore Lungs.
There is no medicine so valuable for restoring strength to the throat and lungs
as VINOL. It is the grandest lung medicine known. This we guarantee.
Debilitated—All Tired Out.
It is not natural to feel continually tired. We guarantee VINOL will bring life,
strength and vigor to the debilitated, run-down system.
To Gain Flesh— To Get Strong.
We know VINOL will make flesh raster than any preparation containing grease.
We can prove that VINOL quickly creates strength.
Old People— Weak People
Need a strengthening and invigorating rcbuildcr. VINOL is of exccp’ional
value in such cases. VINOL positively fejuvenates old folks. Money back to
those not satisfied.
Nervousness — Irritability.
Diseased nerves are due to overwork, insufficient nourishment or slow breaking
down of general health. VINOL actually rebuilds the entire lx>dy and heals
ragged nerves.
Palo Women—Pale Children.
Pale, haggard faces show that the blood is poor and thin, also indicate im
perfect digestion. VINOL will correct such troubles as surely as the sun shines.
Nursing Mothers — Weak Mothers.
You know the life and future development of the child depend upon proper
nourishment. VINOL helps nature change food into body material. VINOL
costs nothing unless it benefits.
We mean exactly what we say in our agreement
to refund your money if you are not satisfied after
you have tried VINOL. We know VINOL is the
best tonic preparation and general rebuilder of
health known to medicine. We bank our reputation
and fortune on its being wholesome, delicious and
most efficacious, and on the fact that no other
maker can produce anything like VINOL.

and both on good digestion. How can you expect digestible food to b«
made from a product obtained from swine ? It isn’t reasonable to expect.
And yet many people keep on using lard—an enemy of good digestion—
through ignorance of something better. It doesn’t pay. Your stomach is
your best friend, and t’will be a sorry day for you when it goes back on you.
Nature's Gift from the Sunny South

Cottolene is the product which will set you right. It is the best and
purest frying and shortening medium in the world—far superior to lard or
cooking butter. It contains nothing but refined vegetable oil, with just
enough choice beef suet added to give proper consistency. Cottolene is a
vegetable, not an animal product.
For your stomach’s sake, use Cottolene for cooking. You’ll never go
back to lard. Cottolene is never sold in bulk—it comes only in sealed
white tin pails with red label and band. In the center of the label is our
trade mark—a steer’s head in cotton plant wreath.
Any up-to-date grocer can supply you with Cottolene. Ask today.
USE 56 LESS. Cottolene being richer than either lard or cooking
butter, one-third less is required.

Washington, I). 0., Jau 11, ’04.
Ed. The Ledger:—I am sending
you a number of packages of garden
si-ed, which I would be glad to have |
you distribute as equally as you can
among the people of your community
who will most appreciate them.
Having only a limited number of
packages, ind it being impossible to
send to everyone in the State, I have
thought best to adopt this method,
in the hope that the seed will reach
•he largest number of people, and do
the most good.
If anyone who has not received
seed will write me, I will try to sup
ply them.
I will esteem it a courtesy if you
will publish this letter in your reg
ular issue.
Witli best wishes,
Yours very truly,
A. C. Latimer.
[If readers of The Ledger will call
it this office we will take pleasure in
Bstributing the seed as soon as they
arrive ]
