Joseph was thirty years Of age when
he reached his position of supreme au-
therity, but we ought not to allow our
selves to forget those thirteen years
of humiliation, during which he was
betrayed, sold into slavery and neg
lected by those whom he befriended.
Yet those were days of fidelity in his
service, of victory over fierce tempta-
ton, of enduring unjust imprisonment
"a long period of patient waiting but
a valuable period in that now at thirty
years of age he comes to this position
of power fully equipped with that
knowledge of men, control of himself
and faith in God as to be properly fit

Poor Blood
is Responsible

for much sickness and suffer
ing because its quality deter
mines our resis tive power.
With poor blood we are Ian
guild, susceptible to colds, lack
natural energy and ambition,
and the gradual d e cline of
strength makes prompt and
careful treatment necessary.
Drugs or alcohol cannot make
blood and must be avoided.
ScoTT's EMULSION is natures
grandest blood-maker because
of its wholesome medical nourishment,
SO carefully predigested that it assimi-
lates without taxing digestion and
quickly increases the red corpuscles
of the blood, strengthens the organs
and tissues and upbuilds the whole
system.
Absolutely nothing compares with
ScoTT's EMULSION to purify and en-
rich the blood to overcome or avoid
anaemia. 1t is totally free from al
cohol or opiates and your health de-
mands the purity of ScorT's.
