Loock Out for Trouble
The after-effects of the Grip areapt
to be serious, but a normal healthy
condition may be restored in a sur
pricingly short time by Vinol.
Watertown, Wis—“ After a severd
attack of the Grip my system was in
a very weakened, nervous and run
down condition. I began taking Vinol
with the very best results, and in &
short time I began to feel like an en~
tirely diiferent person, and I am better
and stronger than I have been for
years.” Adelaide Gamm. (We guarans
tee this testimonial to be genuine.)
~ We have never sold in our store
such a valuable strength creator and
health restorer for the convalescent,
the weak and run-down, as Vinol, and
we ask people in this vicinity to try
a bottle of Vinol, with the wunder
standing that their money will be re
turned if it does ot do all we claim
for it.
