Advertisement Thinness means Weakness This is a fact. To be too thin is to be robbed of health, to be susceptible to disease, to be delicate, frail and a source of worry to one’s friends. You always notice how illness of any kind drains the body of its healthy flesh. SCOTT’S EMULSION is much more than a remedy for thinness. If it puts on healthy flesh (as it does), it must do more, for there are other things to be made right before flesh can come. Think this over. It is worth more than a passing notice. Apply it to your baby, or to a child who is thin, pale and rickety. Apply it to a consumptive if you like. The rule still holds good. When you are taking Scotts Emulsion you do not realize you are taking Cod Liver Oil, it is so palatable. Nevertheless, Scotts Emulsion is Cod Liver Oil and hipophosphites blended so perfectly that the potency of each is increased. Scott & Bewne, Ltd, London. All chemists 2s.6d. and 4s.6d.

11 February 1911 Advertisement Gomer's Balm "Cures Everybody." It is a salve for every wound with marvellous properties for curing all kinds of Skin Rash Eczema Scalds Gout Bad Legs Sores Burns Erysipelas Excoriations Scabby Heads Piles Irritations Ringworm Chapped Hands Scurvy Itchings Gallings in Women and Children. Marvellous for Bad Legs Gomer's Balm: A Great Sensation Read what people say. J. Snooks, Llanharan, says:- "Eleven years ago, I had fever. The effect of the fever settled down in my legs and feet, and baffled all the doctors to cure it. My feet were black until the fall of last year, when they broke out, and they have been in the most frightful mess ever since. My left foot was a complete mess of holes and scabs, full of corruption. No one knows but myself what I have suffered. When I heard of your Salve, viz. Gomer's Balm and Hughes's Blood Pills, I at once used them, and in a fortnight, the change was something wonderful. After continuing with them for a while, I am glad to say that I am now entirely cured. The effect is something marvellous. Never heard of anything like it. I
