We hear great deal about purify

We hear great deal about purify
ing the blood. The way to purify it
is to enrich it. Blood is not simple
fluid like water. 1t is made up OF
minute bodies, and when these are
deficient, the blood lacks the life
giving principle. SCOTS Emulsion
is not a mere blood purifier. 1t ac-
tually increases the number of the
red corpuscles in the blood and
changes unhealthy action into health.
If YOU want to learn more of it we
have book, which tells the story in
simple words.
