SOFTCORE

Like the running brook. the
red blood that flows through
the veins has to come from
somewhere.
The springs of red blood are
found in the soft core of the
bones called the marrow and
some say red blood also comes
from the spleen. Healthy bone
marrow and healthy spleen
are full OF fat.
SCOTS Emulsion makes new
blood by feeding the bone
marrow and the spleen with
the richest of all fats, the pure
cod liver oil.
For pale school girls and
invalids and for all whose
blood is thin and pale, SCOTS
Emulsion is a pleasant and rich
blood food. 1t not only feeds
the blood-making organs but
gives them strength to do
their proper work.

Couldn't Understand It.

The experiences of clerks with their
customers are very peculiar, but the
best that have yet heard was related
to me yesterday by clerk in one of
our local stores. One day last week a
large healthy looking man, whose talk
would give one to understand that he
was a north of Highlander. came into
the store and wanted stiff hat When
the clerk asked him what size he
wanted, he said that he did not know,
as he had never worn hat The clerk
told him that he would take about size
seven, which proved to be the right
size. After buying the hat he told the
clerk that he wanted stiff collar, but
he said that he did not know what size
he should require, as he had never
worn a high collar In his life The
vierk told him that he would require
about a size Is. "What?". exclaimed
the astonished purchaser. "How the
dickens do you make that cut; me have
to wear size Is collar and size Z
hat? Do you think my neck is larger
than my head?"-Lowell Citizen.
