Cod Liver Oil
Yon have probably been advised
by your Physician to take Ood Liver
Oil. This is the season when the
taking of this flesh -producing Oil is
most desirable, If the Pure Cod
Liver Oil is too disagreeable in taste
for you just try the Home Health
Emulsion and you will find that dis-
agreeable taste bidden. This Emul-
efan contains 50% of the Pure Oil so
you have a much stronger Emulsion
than is usually found. It is pleasant
to take and pertain in its action.
