Delicate, Fretful, and Nervous.

We tried, various Patent Mcdi« cines, but -with no good result, until we gave him Scott's Emulsion."

One of the worst, things you can do when your children aio delicate and do not thrive is to dose them with secret nostrums containing powerful drugs. If you do not know what your child is taking, and are rot reasonably certain about the results, the only right course to pursue is to consult th-3 family doctor. More harm than gaocL oiten comes to children through taking medicines containing powerful drugs. One of the strongest things about Scott's Emulsion to commend it to the public is thft fact that it is not a secret nostrum. When you give Scott's Emulsion to your children, yfcu know that they are taking codliver oil, hypophosphites, and glycerine, in a form approved of by the whole medical piofession. Here is a case where various patent medicines were tried for a little boy who was delicate and subject to bronchitis. His mother writes: — ■

'"Depoi, Canterbury, Engl.-uid, "April 24, 1899. "Dear Sirs, — Our little boy, who was born in India, was always verj r delieatp. fietful, s>nd nervous, and subject to bronchitis. In fact, several people told us wo should ne\er rear him. We tried various patent medicines, but with no good result, until tve ga^e him Scott's Emulsion, which, from the be gmnmg, seemed to do him good. He is now a fine, sturdy boy of three years, and is happy and contented. We always keep Scott's .Emulsion in the hou-e, and I cannot speak too highly of it and what it has done for v. little son. "'(Signed) Makgaket Scott, "21st E.T. Lancers." The parents who see their children get well and strong by takiug Scott's Emulsion, are glad to write about it, so that others may profit by their experience. Children universally love the of Scott's Emulsion, and the oil in this preparation is so perfectly emulsified that if is no tax upon, digestion. Scott's Emulsion promoies the making of healthy flesh and strong bones, and qtuekly restores vitality and strength to the system. It may be relied upon in. coughs, colds, bronchitis, and in nearly all llk cases where children need more nourishment than they are getting from their ordi nary food.
