OLDER BUT STRONGER

To be healthy at seventy, prepare at
forty, is sound advice, because In the
strength of middle life we too often forget
that neglected colds, or careless treHt-
ment of slight aches and pains, simply
undermine strength and bring chronic
weakness for later years.
To be stronger when older, keep yonr
blood pure and rich and active with the
strength-building and blood-uourishiug
properties of SCOTS Emulsion which i9e
food, a tonic and a medicine to keep your
blood rich, alleviate rheumatism and
avoid sickness. No alcohol in SCOTS.
