Never thought of such a

Well, it's a good sign for
SCOTS Emulsion. The body
has to be repaired like other
things and SCOTS Emulsion is
the medicine that does it.
These poor bodies wear out
from worry from over-work,
from disease. They get thin

ones are not we'll made-and
all of the old ones are racked

SCOTS Emulsion fixes all
kinds. 1t does the work both
inside and out. 1t makes soft
bones hard, thin blood red,

through the new glow of health.
