The palate is almost tickled with Scott's Emul Bion of Cod-liver oil. The btomach knows nothing about it, it does not trouble you there. You feel it first in the strength it brings ; it shows in the color of check and smoothing out of wrinkles. It was a beautiful thing to do, to cover the odious taste of Cod-liver oil, evade the tax on the stomach, and take health by surprise. It warms, soothes) strength ens and invigorates. 50c and 1 1.00, ill drugxutt. SCOTT i UOWNF, Lhemlsts, New York. GATHERED IN SOUTH SCRANTON FORMAL OPENING OF ST. JOHN'S CHURCH FAIR. P. W.
