DO this FIRST-YOU! !!

You know, and every physician
knows, that when any sickness has
passed, whether it be throat trouble,
organic disturbances, contagious dis
eases, or even a severe cold, a relapse
is feared, because sickness robs the
system Of Natures resistance and
leaves it subject to lingering germs.
Drugs never build up a wom-out
body-only food can do that, and the
first thing to take after any sickness is
the concentrated, blood-making oil
food in Scott's Emulsion, which feeds
the tissues, benefits the blood and
strengthens both lungs and throat.
