You Can Earn Money
When You 'reLaid Up

There ale a lot Of people in
this town who cannot afford to
be sick. Perhaps none of you
feel that you can. but certainly
some Of you can't. for as soon as
you are sick your wages stop
and worry and debts begin to

you to do, as soon as you feel
run down and worn out, no mat
ter what the cause, is to take
something just as quick as you

health Make yourself more
comfortable and provide against
serious sickness.
We don't believe there is any
other medicine made that will
do as much towards saving your
health and thus helping YOU save
your money as Rexall Olive Oil
Emulsion. Is is a medicine that
gets right at the trouble and re-
lieves it by toning the nerves,
enriching the blood, and giving
new st, ength and health to the
whole body. It doesn't do this
by means Of alcohol or habit
forming drugs, because it con-
tains none Its strength and
health giving power is due to
pure OliveOil and the Hypophos-
phites, long endorsed by success
ful physicians, the one for its
food value, the other for its tonic
value. Here, for the first time,
they are combined, and the re
suit is a real nerve, blood and
body building medicine-a rea!
strengthener that We are proud
to tell you about. You don't
need to hesitate in using it, be.
