the Value OF truth

Truth in business is just as important
as truth in everyday life; truth creates
confidence, establishes goodwill and
builds a reliability that will not be
wrecked by the storms of competition.
Through three generations people
have learned to place reliance on the
advertised words of SCOTS Emulsion,
because they are untarnished, unex-
aggerated truisms about a household
remedy of real and actual worth.
The popularity of SCOTS Emulsion
is increasing as intelligence advances,
because in these days of authorizations
IT continues to guarantee pure cod liver oil
incidentally perfected with glycerine and
hypophosphites to build strength, i'm
prove the blood and strengthen the lungs.
1t is free from harmful drugs-a whole
some food-tonit truthfully advertised.
