How Soldiers I&ep Sixm
i . V Jil
uxg, imponani mmg 10 ngnung soldiers, a sick soldier
cannot work with vigor any more than you can work
with energy when you are weak, tired, almost sick.
One efficient warring government is giving each soldier
a vial of cod liver oil every day because far-reaching experi
ments show how wonderfully it increases the calories of
human energy and gives them strength to prevent winter
sickness. Is this not convincing proof that you need it
at this season to enliven your blood to prevent sickness?
Cod liver oil is scarce and high-priced this season and
many inferior grades may be offered. But remember that
SCOTT'S istheone EMULSION
wnich guarantees pure cod lrr er oil free from alcohol and drugs.
If you are subject to colds, throat or lung troubles; if you
are easily tired, run-down or have thin blood, you should
take Scott's Emulsion at once. If your children are back
ard in growth, frail or anaemic, nothing will do them so
much good as Scott's Emulsion, and for girls and women
in home or business it is nature's great strength-builder.
Scoff Vis not a "secret" medicine. It is a rich blood
- food and a pure tonic; it contains nothing harmful and is
pleasant to take.

that follows neglect of this imnortnnt

Harsh catharti.s and violent purgs
tivcB should not be employed, as these
afford only temporary relief, while they
serve to shock the entire system. A
mild laxative such a Dr. Caldwell's
yrup Pepsin Is far preferable and Is
now the remedy generally used anl pie
acrlbed by many doctors. It Is free from
opiate or narcotic drugs, acts easily Hml
pleasantly, without gitplng or other pain
and is a safe, effective family remedy.
