very sweeping statement, but it is
not an ill-considered one. There is no
question in my mind that the spread
of tuberculosis is due largely to the

blood for Their Sea.
The microscope has revealed many
wonderful things, but none more Won
derful than the minute bodies which
exist in the blood. They are called
corpuscles or cells, and are of two
kinds, the white and the red. just a
few words about these red cells. They
are SO minute that there are countless
numbers of them in the tiniest drop OF
blood. Yet each one has peculiar
shape, for which hone Of them ever
vary.
An adult of medium weight has
about twelve pints of blood in the
body, and yet every small drop OF this
contains millions of red corpuscles.
The number of them in the blood can
not be comprehended by the human
mind. OF what use are theyp
One great object OF breathing is to
bring the oxygen of the air in close
contact with the blood which is in the
lungs, for oxygen is necessary for the
support OF life. 1t is the business OF
these little red cells in the blood, to
carry the oxygen which we breathe
in the lungs to every part OF the body.
The most minute part of every organ
and tissue in the body must have its
supply Of oxygen or it will perish, and
the only way the oxygen can reach all
these parts is by means OF these little
red cells. No matter how pure the air
NAV be which we breathe, if there are
not enough red cells in the blood to
carry a sufficient amount of oxygen
through the body we will surely suffer
Plenty of fresh air is essential, and sc
is an abundant supply of these little
"oxygen-carriers" necessary. These
little red bodies have been called
"boats for carrying oxygen" Ger
tainly not a very bad name for them.
Oxygen starvation is shown by pool
circulation, loss of appetite, debility
anaemia, nervousness, neuralgia, sleep
lessness, repeated colds, muscular ane
mental weakness, and many Other
symptoms. WHAT'S the remedy? Some
thing which will make more of these
oxygen-carrying "boats." Nothing
will accomplish this quicker thar

the number of red corpuscles in thu

size of SCOTS Emulsion sells for on
