THERE IS A VAST ARMY
of men and women who really never
know what i is to enjoy sound, vibrat
ing health who would be surprised to
suddenly gain that exhilarating vitality
that robust health brings.
Literally thousands without any par
ticular sickness live in "general de
bility", as the doctors call it have
headaches, arc tired and indifferent.
To all such people we say with unmis
takable earnestness "Take Scott's
Emulsion after meals fo'ronc month and
allow its rare oil-food to enrich and en
liven your blood, quicken your circula
tion, stimulate nutrition, and aid nature
to develop that real red-blooded life that
means activity, enjoyment, success."
Scott's Emulsion is not a drug, but a
pleasant food-tonic free from alcohol.
One bottle may help you. .
