BONE FOOD
The bones -of a baby arc
soft so very soft that at first
they can scarcely be called
bones. They grow hard in
time, but the period of their
growth is a critical one.
Loose joints, bow-legs, en
larged head and hip disease
are evidences of rickets. If
not checked they lead to de
formities of a permanent
character. This is the natural
result of improper bone nour
ishment during the period of
bone development.
The child needs mineral
substance to harden the
bones and this is plentifully
supplied in the hypophos
phites of lime and soda con
tained in Scott's Emulsion.
The cod liver oil provides the
element of fat needed to rein
force the child's ordinary
food.
Thus Scott's Emulsion
offers in a perfect combina
tion the very principles of
proper bone and flesh nour
ishment most needed by a
Q
ymn child. The action of
, , . . - , .1 .
tlie limuision is so niiiu uuu
the most delicate stomach
will accept and retain it.
This makes Scott's Emulsion
of particular value to weak
children and very young
babies who are in absolute
need of a mild yet effective :
food-medicine.
Pale-faced children show
they are not getting what
they ought to get from their
food. They need Scott's
Emulsion to enrich their
blood and give them strength
to start on the right road to a
healthy growth.
If a child is thin, backward
in growth, or slow in de
velopment it will be found
that Scott's Emulsion will
quickly help it. There is
nothing better for babies and
growing children than Scott's
Emulsion.
We'll send you a sample free
upon request.
