"At 'Eight Months she weighed only Eleven Pounds;

&&& after tlie second feottle oi Scott's IBimalsion she weighed

Seventeen Pounds."

Why children should gain a pound a day on an ounce a day of Scott's Emulsion has never been explained. Nor would an explanation, of it make inucu difference any way. It is true, however, that this has" teen accomplished, and certain it is that Scott's Emulsion meets the requirements of the growing body better than any remedy which has yefc beer, offered to the public. Here is a letter that may interest you:— • '" 64 Cromwell road, "Wimbledon, 'London, S.W., "February 5, 1899.

"Gentlemen, — I have much pleasure in testifying to the wonderful benefit derived by our little daughter Froida by the u-=a of Scott's Emulsion. She was an apparently healthy child when born, but ha', ing to feed her by hand we had great trouble in obtaining a food or milk to suit her. At four months old she contracted whooping cough, with bronchial trouble, which rapidly developed lo congestion of the brain. The doctor we called in r-aid it wap partly due to teething, and for several days lie gave us not the slightest hope of saving her. She wasted away to a mere skeleton, and her pillow was wet through by the copious cold sweats she had when' asleep.

She recovered from the congestion, etc., then diarrhoea and sickness pet in, and so on for another four months she w as oneweek better and. another week worse. At eight, months she weighed only eleven pounds. We read one day of a similar case to ours, and we determined to try your Scott's Emul s i o n. We commenced with a half-tea spoonful twice a day, giving her sterilised milk. Before phe had taken the first bottle ot Scott's Emulsion we could see a marked improvement: excessive perspiration vanished, and she rapidly put; on weight and strength, and after completing the second bottle of Scott's Emulsion she weighed 1? pounds, a gain of six pounds. We have not had any return of the wasting, pickness, etc., and she is to-day as bright and well as wo could wish to see her. Without any exaggeration we can &ay that we owe the return to health and strength of our baby girl to Scott's Emulsion. — We remain, yourd faithfully,

(Signed "(Mr and Mrs) P J. Ciaree."

You only haA'o to know the ingredients of this preparation to appreciate how splendidly adapted if; is to persons of all ages.
