There seems to be nn epidemic of
colds.
It is strange how many people start
in with n cold that they have con
tracted during the nuturon months.
Such colds nre dangerous, for unless
cured when the weather is warm it is
Terv difllcult to get rid of them when
really inclement vventner appears.
Do not, if j ou have a cold, go through
this winter nnd let it pull you dow n. A
racking cough may be theincansof un
dermining jour constitution terminat
ing in consumption, wheti there will be
no hope for escape.
Cod-Liver Oil has always been the
greatest known specific for consump
tion. Naturally Cod-Liver Oil has been
given for colds which nre regarded by
many people as tho first stage of this
disease. There is no need of our tell
ing you tho drawbacks of Cod-Liver
Oil; the vile, greasy mixture was so re
pellent that not more than one person
in ten could take it. lint Cod-Llvor
Oil did cure where it could be takon.
Now we have a cod-llvcr oil prepara
tion that cures just as surely as did
this vile remedy. We refer to Vinol.
Anybody can take Vinol It tastes de
licious, nnd because it contains tho
active curative principles that made
Cod-Liver Oil famous as the specific for
consumption and other wasting dis
eases, it will he readily seen how valu
able it is for all such troubles.
Here is one letter taken from many
that nre continually coming to our
notice. Mrs. 11 Cogli'nu, 122 I'utnam
Ave.. Cambridgcport, Mass., says:
" Last September 1 contracted a
heavy cold which terminated with ton
sllitis, and later the grip. All winter
I had a dreadful cough, and the doctor
advised mo to take several things,
among them Cod-Liver Oil. I tried it
for suveral months without obtaining
relief At last I heard of Vinol and
gave it a trial. Five bottles cured me
and I have had no troubles since."
When we talk of Vinol, we
know of what we speak, and will
refund your money if you are not
satisfied. j!S:-
