That's what a prominent
druggist said Of SCOTS
Emulsion a S h ort time
ago. AS a rule we don
use or refer to testimonials
in addressing the public.
but the above remark and
S m liar expressions are
made so often in connec-
ton with SCOTS Emulsion
that they are worthy Of
occasional note. From
infancy to old age SCOTS
Emulsion offers a reliable
means Of remedying i'm
proper and weak develop
ment, restoring lost flesh
and vitality, and repairing
waste. The &C t i o n of
SCOTS Emulsion is no
more Of a secret than the
composition Of the Emul-
sion itself. What it does
it does through -nourish-
ment-the kind of nourish-
ment that cannot be OBJ
tanned in ordinary food.
No system is too weak or
delicate to retain SCOTS
Emulsion and gather good
from it.

Catarrh
A Guaranteed Cure

One thousand retail druggists
who are the leaders of the drug
trade Of the United States. and
that means the world, rated by
Bradstreet's and Dun's at twenty
million dollars and whose retail
business aggregates over seventy
million dollars annual sales, have
agreed to give their name, fnan-
cial backing and endorsement to
the guarantee that Rexall Mucu-
Tone will cure any disease or
trouble arising from catarrh or
they will refund the money. We
are proud of our connection with
the Rexall Remedies, particularly
so of Mucu-Tone, because a rem
edy must be something out of the
ordinary to get our backing. 1t
is not all profit that leads us and
our one thousand associates into
endorsing this remedy; it is our
years of experience with medi-
cines and our knowledge of them
that makes us believe that Rexall
Mucu- Tone is a bona-hde discov-
cry for the cure of all ailments
due to catarrhal affection. We
know that it is not a cure at all,
but a remedy built on scientific
lines and not patent medicine as
each one of the one thousand
druggists knows its formula and
its value. 1t has one great addi-
tional value besides curing consti-
tutional catarrh-that it is a sys-
TEN builder. No such tonic was
ever before designed for the cur
ing Of inflammation of the mu-
cous membrane-nor can it be
improved on in the present age.
Just stop and reason with your
self for one minute. We are do
ing business right here in your
midst. Could we afford to offer
our name and endorsement to
Mucu-Tone as we do if we did
not know that it was an honest
medicine? Could we afford to
agree as we do that we will re-
fund every penny paid us for the
medicine if it does not benefit.
All we ask is the customers
word and the empty bottle and
we hand the money back. No
signed certificate. We believe the
public, especially the sick, are
honest, certainly every sick per-
son who suffers from any of the
following ailments should take adj
vantage of our offer to-day. Rex
all Mucu-Tone cures catarrh of
the nose, throat, stomach, intes-
tines, liver, kidneys or bladder,
and any who are convalescing
from sickness of any kind should
take advantage of our offer and
purchase what we recommend as
the best tonic ever sold in a drug
store. We have large trial size
at fifty cents and we guarantee it
or refund your money.

A REASON
The Rexall Remedies
deserve confidence

The Rexall Remedies
deserve confidence.
AS all these Remedies
are grouped under one
name, they must succeed
or fail together. There
must be no weak links
in this chain. One UNI
worthy remedy would
mean disaster for the en-
tire plan. If you, for
example, purchased the
Rexall Cough Cure and
were not cured by it,
how could we expect
you to place any faith
thereafter in the Rexall
Dyspepsia Cure or any
other member of the
Rexall family?
You can understand,
therefore, why such anx-
ious care was given to
finding and choosing the
remedies TO which the
name "R exall" was
given. We have ad.
mitted none TO this cir
Gle until our committee
of experts had been con-
WINGED by investigation
and test that it was the
best remedy knoa0n to
medical science for the
ailment it aimed to re-
lieve.
Who should know bet
ter than the leading
thousand druggists of
this country what are,
and what not, eff
cient medicines?
Remember, the success
of our enterprise depends
on the merit of each in
diVidndl remedy. Our
reputation, which is our
very business existence,
is at stake. Can you
doubt that in buying a
Rexall Remedy you are
buying the best that
science and experience
can give you?

clients. The boarding mistress, however,
said that just for that the Friedmans could
consider themselves pinched, and every
body went down to the Justices Office,
over the grocery store.
It was at this point that Isaac Male, the
bookbtnder, stepped in. Mr.. Male is a
Oouzin Of the boarding mistress and was
spending a few weeks at the boarding
house. Isaac Male says that when Mr..
Friedman offered his check for $3.50 10 the
boarding mistress so that every one could
go on his way undisturbedj and when the
check was refused with scorn Isaac says
he stepped into the breach because ne
didn't want to see a Jew arrested"
II Mr. Friedman gives me security
declared Isaac, III go security for any
claims the boarding house has against him"
With tears Of gratitude in her eyes Mrs.
Friedman pulled of the 1925 diamond ring
her husband had got for her at the begin
ming OF the summer and turned it over to
Isaac. Then the Friedmans were per-
mitted to come back into town and Isaac
followed shortly after.
Now the Friedmans a 1925 worth of
diamond ring which Isaac has locke up in
the safe on Crosby street. When Lawyer
Rosenberg limited to Isaac delicately yester-
Isaac said that the ring would stay back Of
the safe combination until his cousin, the
boarding boss. got all that she claims Is
coming to her.
Sam Bernstein, who IL Lawyer Rosen-
berg's clerk, ven back to Isaac after the
first negotiations had failed with an I'M
certified check, in return for which Isaac
was to hand over the ring. The lawyer
said yestesday that IL Isaac had given up
the ring for the uncertihed check payment
would then be stopped on the check. There
was much regret expressed mon the
sporting editors Of town when this news
got out that the check wasn't accepted
by Isaac, as the resultant race for the bank
between Isaac and the Freidmans would
doubtless have been a classic.
Now Isaac Male has been sued in a civil
action to recover the ring. Sam Bernstein
served the summons OF Isaac yesterday,
and it is returnable on September II. And
everybody threatens to sue everybody else
for SANDER n there is loud talk Of black
mail and much waving Of papers that look
imposing. Out Of il all these important
facts remain-chickens are birds and herring
are fish and the two are interchangeable.
