The vastness of the work of maintaining the sriny —apart from feeding it—may be gauged from a few figures. In one month there were issued to the troops 450 nliles of telephone wire, 570 telephones, 534,000 sandbags. 10,0001 bof dubbin for boots, 38,000 bars of soap, 150,000 pa.irs of socks, and 100,000 pairs of boots. In' 10 dry's thero were also distributed 118,160 fur waistcoat*, and 315,075 flannel belts. The way that insignificant items mount up where large numbers of troops are concerned is shown by the fact that every week there is issued on an average five tons of vaseline for the feet and 100 tons of horseshoes. Some idea of the complexity of the work can bo gathered by reference to the official “ Vocabulary of Stores,” which contains 50,000 items.

Her appetite, too, was very poor, and she often complained of headache. Since giving her ‘ SCOTT’S Emulsion,’ she has made splendid progress. Her appetite has wonderfully improved, she has gained greatly in weight, and has lost the tired feeling and looks bright and well. We give SCOTT’S Emulsion all the credit, as no other medicine was taken.” (Miss) M. Daley. Day by day improvement !s noticed when SCOTT’S Emulsion is taken. Appetite improves, energy returns, weight increases and an exhilarating sense of health replaces the depression of weakness. Prematurely horn babies, growing children, overgrowing boys and girls, tired mothers and wearied workers find health and strength by taking genuine scons Emulsion IMITATED BUT NEYER EQUALLED
