There is nothing else to live on or by. When strength is full and .spirits high we are being re freshed-bone, muscle and brain, in body and mind-with continual flow of rich blood. This is health. When weak, in low spirits, no cheer, no spring, when rest is not rest and sleep is not sleep, we are starved; our blood is poor; there is little nutriment in it. Back of the blood is food, to keep the blood rich. When it fails, take SCOTT'S EMULSION It sets the whole body going again-man, woman and child.
