That's what a prominent
dru ggist said of SCOTS
Emulsion a S hort time
ago. AS a rule we don't
use or refer to testimonials
in addressing the public,
but the above remark and
simil ar expressions are
made so often in connec-
ton with Scott Emulsion
that they are worthy of
occasional note. From
infancy to old age Scott S
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 ion 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.
