The reason that Vinol is so suc

the only preparation that contains
tonic iron together with all of the
healing, body-building elements of
cod liver oil, actually taken from
fresh coda livers, but no oil.
Without, hesitation we proclaim our
faith in Vinol for chronic coughs,

If It’s Work For a Want Ad
Let A Want Ad Do It!
¥
FOR MOST of your life, doubtless you hajifi
been trying to do want ad’s work —instead of
letting the want ad. do it —and some of yours,
besides.
You have been doing, or trying to do —and
sometimes failing to do —at over-much expense
of time, and money, and nerves, things which
the want ads. do easily, readily, quickly—at a
small expense.
Perhaps you have tried to sell property —or
to rent it —or to find work or workers —or to
obtain some particular thing—trying, without
facilities to do things for which the want ads. are
completely equipped.
Some people who have a pride in being
“modern” in dress, in information, in home-sur
roundings—still, for some unapparant reason,
fail to make use, in their daily lives, of the most
“modern” things in the world —the most “up
to-date ’ * convenience of nowadays life —the most
tireless force that man has yet harnessed and
impressed into his service—“want advertising.”
You have "adopted” the street car, the telephone,
the phonograph, the other aids to pleasure and conveni
ence in modern life—SO WHY NOT “ADOPT” WANT
ADVERTISING, and make it do the part of the day’s
work which is "WANT AD WORK?”
