HHE above picture of the
man and fish is the trademark
of Scott's Emulsion,
and is the synonym for
strength and purity. It is sold
in almost all the civilized countries
of the globe.
If the cod fish became extinct
it would be a world-wide calamity,
because the oil that comes
from its liver surpasses all other
fats in nourishing and life-giving
properties. Thirty years ago
the proprietors of Scott's Emulsion
found a way of preparing
?od liver oil so that evervone can
%/
take it and get the full value of
the oil without the objectionable
taste. Scott's Emulsion is the
best thing in the world for weak,
backward children, thin, delicate
fieople, and all conditions of
wasting and lost strength.
