STRENGTH FOR OLD PEOPLE.

Old people, to overcome the weak
ening debiitating effects of increas-
ing old age, often make a very sad
mistake in using so-called remedies"
that contain alcohol and dangerous
or habit-forming drugs. Often this
stuff, because it livens and brightens
them up little just after taking a
dose, leads them to imagine that it is
doing them good, when it isn't. Rem
edies that rely for their sale on such
deceit, do harm, because the false ex-
citement of the nerves and heart
leaves them worse than they were
before.
Rexall Olive Oil Emulsion is a
real medicine-a splendid body and
strength especially good for
old people, because it furnishes the
system ingredients necessary to re-
build wasted tissues, strengthen the
nerves, give new energy and young
er and livelier feeling to the body. 1t
