Give That Puny Child
This Guaranteed Remedy

If your child is under-weight,
listless, ailing, liable to get sick
easily, it needs a medicine to
build its weight and strength.
For this purpose there is nothing
else we know of that we can so
strongly endorse as Rexall Olive

success of this splendid medicine
is due to the fact that it contains
ingredients that tone the nerves,

the entire system the strength,
weight and health building sub
stances itneeds. And it does all
this without iniurin2 the stom-
ach. In fact, Rexall Olive Oil
Emulsion is not only pleasant to
take, but even the most sensitive
stomach is benefited by it, and
the digestion improved. On the
other hand, it contains no alco-
hol or habit forming drugs,
which most parents object to
giving to their children. 1t does
