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 treat
ment of slight aches and pains, simply
undermine strength and bring chronic
weakness for later years.
To be stronger when older, keep your
blood pure and rich and active with the
trength-building and blood-nourishing
properties of Scott's Emulsion which is a
food, tonic and a medicine to keep your
blood rich, alleviate rheumatism and
avoid sickness. No alcohol in Scotts.
