Does your horse "feel his
oats"? What a difference between
the grain-fed and the
grass-fed horse! The first
strong and full of ginger, the
second flabby, weak and tired
out before he begins. The
feeding makes the difference.
Children are not alike either.
One is rosy, bright-eyed, full
of life and laughter, another is
pale, weak and dull. The feeding
again is responsible.
Sickly children need special
feeding. They don't "feel their
oats". Scott's Emuision adds
just the right richness to their
diet. It is like grain to the
horse. The child gets new
appetite and strong digestion.
Scott's Emulsion is more
than food. It is a strong
medicine. It rouses up dull
children, puts new flesh on thin
