The Pure Food and Drug Laws aim
to protect the public by preventing
mis-statements on the labels OF prepa
rations but some people continue to
accept EXTRACTS" of cod kiscrc think
ing they will get Tie benefit Of an
emulsion of cod liver oil.
The difference is very great. An
"emulsion" contains 2caLS09 iiCeY oil,
which has had the hearty endorse
ment of the medical profession for
many years, while an @extract" is a
product which contains no oil and is
highly alcoholic.
SCOTS Emulsion guarantees the high
est grade of real Norwegian cod kt1ey oil,
skilfully blended with glycerine and
hypophosphites. SCOTS is free from the
false stimulation of alcohol aud is en-
dorsed by good physicians everywhere.
