Vitality is your measure of force, or power. Thin babies and feeble old-persons have little of it.When the system is unable to assimilate the right kind of food, vitality becomes low.
Scott's Emulsion
is above all other remedies in giving vitality. It makes no difference whether the emaciated person is in babyhood or in old age. Whenever foud fails to nourish, Scott's Emulsion will bo found the most effective remedy for overcoming emaciated tendencies.
