Weeds

Consumption is a human
weed furnishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds its
easily destroyed while young;
when old, sometimes inn
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 il is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see il, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
III isn't really consumption so
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. II it is consump-
ton you can't expect TO be
cured at once, but If you viii
begin in time and will be
