TO GAIN FLESH.

When the body loses its solid flesh it loses strength. In all animal life healthy flesh is reserve force—resistance to disease and vitality. One of the first results of illness is losing flesh, which is due to the demands of nature for whatever reserve force the system can supply. We are permitted to publish the following letter, showing how healthy flesh may be obtained : “Repeated attacks of influenza this last winter leaving my daughter with a nasty cough, and very much reduced in weight, on the. suggestion of my medical adviser I procured from J- E. Sutherland, chemist, 209, Lambton quay, a case of Scott’s Emulsion. Just prior to so doing, and to tost the value of Scott’s Emulsion, I weighed her carefully, and again, sixteen weeks after she had been taking the Emulsion, I weighed her a second time, on the same scales, with the astonishing result that I found she bad increased fourteen pounds in weight. Recognising the astonishing change in my daughter’s health, which I attribute to Scott’s Emulsion, I have much pleasure in banding you this testimonial, which yon are at liberty to use as you may think proper. — I remain, yours faithfully (signed) W LINGA.RD, Hawkestono street, Wellington, New Zealand. May 30th, 1895.” This famous remedy—Scott’s Emulsion — has many uses. It is cod-liver oil in a partially digested and perfectly palatable form, combined in scientific proportions with the bypophospbites of lime and soda. This combination makes a moat valuable remedy for throat and lung affections and all the wasting, emaciated tendencies of the body. Scott’s Emulsion not only cures inflammation of the breathing and speaking organs, but it is easily absorbed into the blood and carries nourishment to all parts of the system. It assists materially in the formation of healthy tissue. It overcomes, anaemic. tendencies and eradicates the germs of scrofula or consumption, Scott’s Emulsion enhances the of codliver oil by preserving it from decay and pretentingit in an easy form for the digestive organs. It is sweet to the ■ f aste and does not tax the most delicate stomach. You can give it to your baby or your grandfather with equally good results.
