If," continued he, "the fathers and mothers of such children would bell.eve what we say of Vinol, we would see a great difference in the appearance of the younger genera tion of this. city. You know Vinol is not a patent medicine, but Ih Just the tonic growing children need. It will make for them good, healthy flesh, sound bone, hard muscle and rich, red blood. ' "True, Vinol Is a cod liver, oil preparation, but It does not contain a drop of oil, or any bad tasting feature. It Is so delicious that all children love It, yet it actually does contain all the medicinal curative elements found In fresh cods' fivers, and Is the most wholesome and best medicine for children we ever sold. "It is because we know what Vinol will do that we guarantee If it falls to make your children well, rugged, and rosy, to refund your money." " R. H. Jordan & Co., Druggists.
