Delicate Children. Rapidly-growing chil

than adults, but the appetite often becomes
fitful; over-study, restless nights, and mal
assimilation of food soon make them weak,

LITTLE BOY MADE STRONG
"My little boy was in a delicate, weak, emaciated
condition and had a cough so we had to keep him
out of school for a year. Nothing seemed to help
him until Vinol was recommended, and the change
it made in him was remarkable. It has built him up
and made him strong so his cough is almost entirely
gone. We can not recommend Vinol too highly."
