THEY WERE RUNDOWN
How often we hear it said of a man
or woman that "they were rundown in
health" which accountsfortheirpresent
sickness. For that reason it is impor
tant that when you find you tire easily,
when your nerves are troublesome 01
your work is irksome, you should
strengthen your system immediately
with the blood-enriching, tissue-build
ing food in Scott's Emulsion which
contains pure Norwegian cod liver
oil and is free from alcohol.
