The only kind of consump-

People are learning that con-
sumption is a durable disease.
It is neglected consumptior
that is so often incurable
At the fainteat suspicion a
consumption get a bottle d
SCOTS Emulsion and begin
regular doses.
The use Of SCOTS Emulsion
at once, has, in thousands of
cases, turned the balance in
favor of health.
Neglected consumption does
