La Grippe If you have had the Grippe, you know its aches and pains, the fever, the chills, the cough, the depression—you know them all. The Grippe exhausts the nervous system quickly, lowers the vitality. Two things should be done at oncet —the body must be strengthened, and force must be given to the nervous system. Codliver Oil will do the first; Hypophosphites the second. These are permanently and pleasantly combined in Scott's Emulsion. It lifts the despondency and heals the inflamed membranes of the throat and lungs. But you need not nave LA GRIPPE. You can put your system in a condition unfavorable to it. You can have rich, red blood; resistive strength; steady brain and nerves. Scott's Emulsion prevents as well as cures. And whether you send or go for Scott’s Emulsion, be sure you get the genuine.
