COMBUSTION

in the human body is of the utmost importance in determining vitality. Unless combustion is active, the vital organs lose their power, the body loses flesh, skin becomes pale, and the whole system is in danger.

Scott's Emulsion

induces a healthy combustion, by supplying the blood with the prin ciple of carbon-the principle which enriches the blood, assists in making healthy fesh, and gives force to the vital orgaus. By taking Scott's Emulsion you gain the human steam that keeps the body vigorous. It nourishes when all other food is of no avail. All emlita.
