To Whom It May'Concern : Of late there as been a good deal of discussion in VVingharn in regard to advertised medicines and their value— the papers are full of theta. \Ve want to say to every than, wo- man and child in Winghain that we believe the most valuable preparation of cod liver oil --the best tonic recon- structor, health restorer and strength creator—we have ever sold in our store is Vinol. Vinol is not a patent medicine, it contains no injurious droge, but it ac- tually does contain all of the medic!. nal, curative elements taken from fresh cods' livers. without a drop of the useless ail to upset the stomach and retard its work, and tonic iron added, Vinol is recognized throughout the world its the greatest strength creator for old people, weak, sickly women and children, nursing mothers, and. after a severe illness, *Vidal Litres hackingcoughs, chronic colds, bronchitis, anall throat and lung troubles. We ask the people of Wingham to try Vinol on our offer to return money if it fails, a. Walton Mol Ibbon, druggist. THE WINGU-U-A,M ADVANCE, T t T SDAY, MAY 14, 1908.

It's not a question of Hyomei hav- ing cured some one else but •,s ill it reach your own particular case. If its cold in- the bead, bronchitis, catarrh, pneumonia, croup or any affection of the breathing organs J. W. McKibbon says yes, and will refund the money if it fails. No other preparation for the same purpose can successfully do this, because the Hyomei system of treat- ment' is different from anything else. You simply breathe and inhale its medication in dry air form which des- troys the .berm life that causes op- pressed breathing, nasal catarrh, lung troubles and throat irritation. It brings to these suffering organa the balsam laden air they would get in the Pine and Eucalyptus forests. The air that stamps out Bronchial troubles. The prince of entertainers Marshal P. Wilder says; Hyomei is easy to use, -and swift to care, It insures against coughs and colds. It gives you pure air and kills the germ of dis- ease. It helps the voice. Ilyomei complete outfit, $1.00.
