Consumption is a human
weed fourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds its
easily destroyed while young
when old, sometimes i'm
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as YOU
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption so
much the. better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. If it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh air,
rest all you can, eat all you
can, that's the treatment and
that's the best treatment.

WHEN THINGS GO WRONG.

When things go right it isn't hard
To keep a pleasant, cheerful face,
For other folk to have regard
And grant request with smiling
grace.
Sometimes fate knocks a man around
And scourges him with double
thong
It's not so easy, have found,
When things go wrong.
When things go right we can agree
With any one on anything;
There's good in all that we can see,
And joyous are the songs we sing
But leaden grow the dancing feet,
We have to sing another song
And trouble sour our little sweet
When things go wrong.
When things go right we can be good
And all the Christian virtues show
Do unto others as we would
Be done by-seeds of kindness SOW.
Still, all my praise will reserve
For him who battered hard and long,
Still keeps his temper and his nerve
When things go wrong.
