SUFFERING FROM A SEVERE COLD.
"AFTER I CONTINUED TREATMENT I WAS IN BETTER HEALTH THAN I HAD BEEN IN TWO YEARS." Fob all of those conditions of the system revealing a loss of vitality and a general decline of health, there has never been a remedy found so effectual as Scott's Emulsion. This statement may seem a trifle overdrawn, and yet it is not, because, in the first place, science has never found a substitute for cod-liver oil, and in the second place Scott's Emulsion makes this oil not only sweet to the taste, but actually more effectual than it is in any other form. Here is the case of a gentleman in North Wales, who was not in good health, and had been suffering for two years from a severe cold. To quote his own language: — "27, Marcus-street, Carnarvon,
"North Wales, February 15, 1899. " Gentlemen, —It gives me great pleasure in testifying to the merits of Scott's Emulsion. For the last two years I have been suffering from a severe cold, which- was accompanied by terrible pains in the chest and stomach, especially in the region of the heart, and I also raised blood. I tried different things, but they did not seem to benefit me in any way. I happened to read about Scott's Emulsion, and I wrote you for a sample bottle, which you were kind enough to send me. After I had continued treatment I was in better health than I had been for the last two years. Besides finding Scott's Emulsion so strengthening, it is most pleasant to take. I shall recommend it to all my friends, as I think it invaluable.— Yours faithfully " (Signed) Robert Hughes." The problem in administering cod-liver oil is to overcome its taste, and also to give it in a form that will not tax digestion. The reason plain cod-liver oil is not practical is because it is hard to get patients to take it, and even if they do succeed in taking it, their digestive system finds it a burden, and consequently very little of it is absorbed into the Wood. Scott's Emulsion is perfectly palatable, and it wraps each minute globule of oil in a thin coating of glycerine, and ift this way greatly facilitates absorption without digestive effort. The hypophosphites of lime and soda in Scott's Emulsion help materially in giving the system strength and a healthier tone throughout.
