OIL for the
Children.

Give them oil-Cod-liver oil.
It's curious to ste the result.
Give it to the peevish, fret
full child, and helaughs. Give
it to the pale, anemic child,
and his face becomes rosy and
full of health. Take a flat
chested child, or a child that
has stopped growing, give him
the oil, and he will grow big
and strong like tie rest.
This is not anew scheme.
1t has been done for years.
Of course you must use the
right oil. Scots Emulsion
is the one.
SCOTS Emulsion neither
looks nor tastes like oil because
