arts and sciences, While seventy three
girls will get the A 3. degree. There

grades of any class in the history Of the

WASTING AWAY

It's the small but constant
loss of flesh that indicates
physical waste the gradual
slipping away Of healthy flesh,
pound by pound, which no
ordinary food seems to re-
store. SCOTS Emulsion will
restore it. This Emulsion is
the greatest flesh builder OBJ
tainable. SCOTS Emulsion
first stops the wasting-that's
one gain. Then when it sup
plies new flesh and takes one
back to normal strength and
weight, that's another gain
and a big one.
