CURVATURE IN CHILDRENS.

When baby is just beginning to toddle about, you often say she is too heavy for her legs. Now, if you will only go at the subject from the other end, yon will be nearer right. Baby is not too heavy for her legs, but the legs are too weak for baby. Consequents, if you are not careful, her bones will soon begin to bend, as they did in the following case;— “1 think I should bo neglecting my duty very much in not giving a true account of the wonderful result of Scott’s Emulsion in tho case of our little girl. About two years ago; my wife took her to tho doctor’s, as she was very uneasy about her. Her wrists were very much enlarged, her shins .were quite bent, and she used to waddle along like a duck. The doctor said it was a ease of rickets, and advised my wife to take her to the hospital, which she did. The doctor there ordered her legs to be put in splints, and she was to wear them for two months j but I very soon discontinued them, and my wife said she would try Scott’s Emulsion. It had cured our Maud of bronchitis, and wo thought it would do this one good. So we started, and, after she had taken about two or three bottles, wo could see a wonderful change for the better. We continued to give her Scott’s Emulsion until she had taken about eleven bottles. Her legs are as straight as an arrow, and she is as fine a child as you would wish to see. Anyone is quite welcome to come to the above address and see her for themselves. I am never without Scott’s Emulsion in my house. My children drink it like drinking milk, they are that fond of it.—Tours truly, (signed)- JOHN TAUTR, The Woodbines, Washwood Heath, - near Birmingham, England, January 2lst, 3898.” Children need nourishment for their growing bones as well as forthe making of healthy flesh. Scott’s Emulsion supplies both. It contains the purest Norwegian cod-liver oil, combined with the hypophosphites of lime and soda. Both of these remedies are essential to children who do not make satisfactory progress in growth, and in no other form than Scott’s Emulsion can the most benefits from them bo derived. This is because Scott’s Emulsion is a scientific remedy, perfect in manipulation, and better adapted to the needs of the system. It is perfectly palatable, and does not derange digestion. When children show, by weakness, paleness, thinness or other evidences, that they are not deriving sufficient nourishment from their food, Scott’s Emulsion'will quickly restore vitality, flesh and strength, stimulate their appetite, and make them rosy and robust. It solidifies the bones, enriches the blood, and makes their growth strong and vigorous. ■
