GETIT FIRST--NOT LAST

When cold grips your system it is
convincing proof that your condition is
acknowledgements that. It's risky
indeed to simply trust your strength to
throw it off, because neglected colds
have brought more serious sickness
than any other one thing, while weak
eningcathartics and stimulatingsyrups
are often depressing and dangerous.
The one best treatment for any cold
the one SO often relied on when others
fail, isthe powerful blood-nourishment
in SCOTS Emulsion, which feeds the
very sources of bodily strength to sup
press the present cold and generate
strength to thwart further sickness.
Get SCOTS first, not last-and insist
on the genuine-always free from al
