Dr. Slocum is the only man that knows just how , and he has spent the good part of a ' lifetime finding out. Any doctor will tell you that cod liver oil is good , that ozone is good , and that guaiacol is good , but he can't. mix 'em just right , so they're pleasant to take. Some doctors will tell you that nobody - body can. Dr. Slocum can. Some doctors prescribe Ozomulsion. Some don't. Broad- . . . gauge doctors say ' ' Take " They know a thing or two. They know that keeping folks sick don't pay nowadays ; getting them well quick pays better. Lots ' of folks get sick as fast as sick ones get well.
