BONE FOOD

Soft and crooked bones mean bad feeding. Call the disease rickets if you want to. The growing child must eat the right food for growth. Bones must have bone food, blood must have blood food and so on through the list:
 Scott's Emulsion is the right treatment for soft bones in children. Littledoses everyday give the stiffness and shape that healthy bones should have.
 Bow legs become straighter, loose joints grow stronger and frmness comes to the soft heads.
 Wrong food caused the trouble. Rightfood will cure 1t.
 In thousands of cases Scott's Emulsion has proven to be the right food for soft bones in childhood.
