months.

ington, D. c., and the Retail Merchants
Association of Washington, d. G., on be-
half of themselves. jointly and separate
ly, and on behalf of their members who

SHARK OIL Is USED

1t is a known fact that some cod
liver oil from the warmer fishing
banks is adulterated with oil from
the shark and haddock, and sold in
many places for medicinal purposes
Unfortunately this fact is not know
by small producers who procure it
In good faith from jobber who i'm
turn purchased it from a dealer,
etc. etc., with the ultimate result
that the consumer is the real suf-
ferer. There is one way, however,
to be absolutely sure that this pop
ular medicinal oil is of superior
undefiled quality and that is by
following physicians example and
insisting on the pure, genuine
SCOTS Emulsion, the makers of
which import their oil direct from
the northern coast of Norway in
sealed metal containers, and the
Oil is then tested to insure it's
purity.
