WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION have not attained their high position in the confidence of the people by bald assertions and boasting advertisements. They are obliged to win it by doing actually what is claimed for them. That this romedy deserves its reputation is conceded. It is palatable as honey and contains the nutritive and curative properties of Pure Cod Liver Oil, combined with the Compound Syrup of Hypophosphites and the Extracts of Malt and Wild Cherry. Nothing has such a record of success in Scrofula, Anemia, Throat. and Lung Troubles, and emaciating complaints and disorders, that tend to undermine the foundations of strength and vigour. Its osa helps to show life's brighter side. Dr. H. L. Reddy, B. A., M. D., L. R. O. S., Edinburg,~L. R. C.
