Did not succeed very well, did you? It's Just as useless to try to escape from the germs of consumption. You can't do it. They are about us on every hand and we are con" stantly taking them into our lungs. Then why don*t we all have this disease? Simply because these germs cannot gain a foot­ hold in a strong . thr A and lungs. It's when these are weak that the germs master. The body must be well supplied with fat. The danger comes when the blood is poor and the body is thin. If your cough does not yield, and your throat and lungs feel raw and sore, you should not delay another day. Take Scott's Emulsion of Cod-Liver Oil with Hypophos- phites at once. It will heal the inflamed membranes and greatly strengthen them as well. The digestion becomes stronger, the appetite better and the weight increases. The whole body be­ comes well fortified and the germs of consumption cannot gain a foothold. It's this nourishing, sustain­ ing and strengthening power of SCOTT'S EMULSION thai has made it of such value in all wasting and exhausting diseases. joe. and fi.oo, all druggists.
