ATHLETE'S COUGH.
"I MUST HAVE CONTRACTED IT WHILE TRAINING FOR ATHLETIC MEETINGS." WINTER athletics cause many colds. In the enthusiasm of football not much care is taken of the health. Yet even while training and competing it is easy to guard against coughs and coldshere is" the tip : " Mona House. Isleworth. " Middlesex, England, "February Bth, 1901. " Dear Sirs, —For some time I have been suffering from a severe cold and hacking cough, which I think 7 must have contracted while training to compete at athletic meetings. One day a friend of mine said I ought to try your Scott's Emulsion, as he knew it would do me good. I took his advice and soon found I was deriving benefit from the treatment. After taking Soott's Emulsion for three weeks I had entirely lost my cold and no longer had any cough. lam now feeling in splendid health, and give Scott's Emulsion all the credit for same. "Yours truly, " (Signed) Pekct Gouki.at." Every athlete knows that training makes extra demands upon-his strength—competition still greater demands. Football, running, "cross country" are all hard work and must be met by extra effort. Coughs and colds are not permissible if the athlete is to keep in the pink of condition. Scott's Emulsion maintains for the athlete a perfect condition of health. Mr. Gourlay got himself and kept himself in condition by using Scott's Emulsion. Athletes should try it—preventive treatment is better for them than curative treatment. Scott's Emulsion supplies exactly what they needpure cod-liver oil with hypophosphites of lime and soda. The cod-liver oil is treated by our process so that all the virtue of it remains, while all the disagreeable taste and smell are taken away. Codliver oil -is the finest strengthener ever known; hypophosphites of lime and soda the best tissue, muscle and bone builders. There can be no question of the value of these things to the athlete. He should, however, remember that tire high value of these ingredients is obtained only in Scott's Emulsion—the scientific blending of which is the result of thirty years' experience. Cheap imitations give only cheap, results. No substitutes possess the unique value of cod-liver oil. To get the athletic value that Mr. Gourlay obtained, take Scott's Emulsion—the wrapper of every bottle has a picture of a man carrying a big codfish. You can obtain a sample oi Scott s Emulsion by sending fourpence to Scott and Bowne, Limited, 483, Kent-street, Sydney, and mentioning this paper. All chemists sell Scott's Emulsion.
