There is not the same renewal of strength that constantly goes on in young people. . Avoid Strong Stimulants. Stimulants do not make any | new tissues to replace wear and tear, they break down and weaken, rather than build up. Yet some- thing is needed to create strength and renew vitality. Vinol a Blessing to The Old. Vinol is an ideal strengthener | ff and body-builder for old folks, and many of them owe not only health and vigor, but their very lives to it. Vinol repairs worn tissues, checks the natural decline, and replaces weakness with strength. It invigorates the . stomach, en- abling it to separate from food the elements needed for rich, red blood, healthy body-material, and found, steady nerves.
