First; Because it is not a patent medicine and it contains besides tonic iron all of the medical curative ele ments of cod liver oil actually taken from fresh cods’ liveiv, but without a drop of oil to nauseate aud upset the stomach and retard its work; there fore, wherever old-fashioned cod liv er oil or emulsions will do good. Vino! will do far more good.

Third; Because Vinol contains no injurious drugs to react upon the sys tem; every ingredient being named on the label, a patient knows exactly what he is taking. I Fourth: Because we never sold anything in our store that gave such universal satisfaction for old people, weak, sickly women and children, nursing mothers, and to build up the , system afte r a severe sickness, and for relieving hacking’coughs, chronic i colds, bronchitis and all throat and lung troubles j Try Vinol on onr guarantee. | ney Drug Co..
