For Thin Babies

Fat is of great account to a baby; that is why babies are fat. If yom

baby is scrawny, Scott ' s

Emulsion is what he wants. The healthy baby stores as fat what it does not need immediately for bone and muscle. Fat babies are happy ; they do not cry; they are rich ; their fat is laid up for time of need. They arc happy because they are comfortable. The fat sur­rounds their little nerves and cushions them. W hen t h e y a r e s c r a w n y t h o s e nerves are hurt at every ungentle touch. They delight in Scott's Emul­sion. It is as sweet as wholesome to them.

Smnd for frme sample.

Be sure that this picture hi the form of a label la oathe wrapper of every bottle of Emulsion you buy.
