BODY-RES
Food is the body-restorcr.
In health, you want nothing
but food; and your baby wants
nothing but food. But, when
not quite we'll, you want to get
back to where food is enough.
One of the most delicate
foods, in the world, is SCOTS
emulsion of cod-livcr oil.
When usual food is a burden,
it feeds you enough to restore
your stomach; baby the same,
The body-builder is food:
the body-restorer is SCOTS
emulsion of cod-liver oil.

seen that she had sunk 10 mud bank,
