The first effort to locate, them was unsuccessful, 'the timber being poor .' and scattering, but a second expedition $ was maae in anotner airection: usra '"' ner had joined the party, and It was largely on the strength - of - his aaaur nnces that they finally located.

You'll wonder, perhaps, why Scott's ; Emulsion costs more than ' some other kind in' as Jarge "l a bottle. , Hearing only o'ne' . ,. side of the question you may j be led into buying the "just ; l as good, as Scott's n at the Hower "price. " That's false "' economy."- Scott' Emulsion costs more because its more f expensive to make. Every ' ingredient is tested and guar anteed of the purest quality. , " No adulteration, no shaving ,' , of quality. . There's no econ "f omy in bargain medicine. If you can afford to experiment with your health, substitutes ' , may satisfy you. We t!ake it,, however, that you want a. pure preparation, a reliable 1 remedy and something that's , goirifjj to help you. That's what you" get r in Scott's J Emulsion. Thirty7 years the OURHS 0 . ,.
