A BAPTIST ELDER Restored to Health by Vino! “I was run down and weak from In digestion and general debility, also suf fered from vertigo.

After tak ing two bottles I regained my strength and urn now feeling unusually well.” Henry Cunningham, Elder Bap tist Church, Kingston, N. C. Vinol Is not a patent medicine—but a preparation composed of the medicinal elements of cods' livers, combined with a tonic iron and wine.
