PADRES WHINE ELIXIR

Kingsburg Historical Society, Kingsburg, Ca.

"Whine Elixir" because it has 22% alcohol, which should take care of any tendencies to whine. Enlarge and read the label. It's hilarious. Turns out they billed this as a medicine to avoid prohibition.

"Nutritive medicaments." Learned me a new word today.

Apparently they were no small op. calisphere.org/item/2c635e47d8d5dbf7938b4cf91eb3b4e5/
