Builds
up Strength.
As a recuperative in all cases of lung, stomach or bowel weakness, or after any severe illness, Angier's Emulsion positively has no equal. Bland and pleasant, it promotes appetite, aida digestion, and builds up health and strength. It is the ideal tonic and builder, because it is soothing and healing as well as stregthening.
Angier's Emulsion
(PETROLEUM WITH HYPOPHOSPHITES)
SUPERIOR TO ALL OTHER
EMULSIONS.
Angier's Emulsion is entirely different anti. superior to all other Emulsions because it combines the remarkable healing properties of our special petroleum with the tonic properties of the hypo- phosphites. It is unquestionably the most palatable emulsion and it agrees perfectly with delicato stomachs.

Dear Sirs-In all cases of chronic cough, and in all wasting diseases of adults, and children, pulmonary and gastro-intestinal, there is no better tonic than Angier's Emulsion. I prescribe it to more than half my patients. You may make usS of this testimonial, minus my name.
