Consumption is robbed of its terrors by the fact that the best medical authorities state that it is a curable disease; and one of the happy things about it is, that its victims rarely ever lose hope. You know there are all sorts of secret nostrums advertised to cure consumption. Some make absurd claims. We only say that if taken in time and the laws of health are property observed. SCOTT'S EMULSION will heal the inflammation of the throat and lungs and nourish and strengthen the body so that it can throw off the disease. We have thousands of testii monials where people claim they have been permanently cured of ' this malady. joe, ■nd ft.on, Ml drnggittt. > SCOT TA BOWNE, Qwmtoti. New York.
