BOTH FOOD
AND MEDICINE.

We like best to call SCOTS
Emulsion a food-medicine. 1t
is a term that aptly describes
the character and action of
our Emulsion. More than a
medicine-more than a food,
yet combining the vital prin-
ciples of both. II is for this
reason that SCOTS Emulsion
has a distinct and special
value in all wasting diseases.
There is nothing better 20
remedy the troubles of inn
perfect growth and delicate
health in children. The action
of Scots Emulsion is just as
effective in treating weak.
ness and wasting in adults.
