Babies and children, whether they suffer from some// wasting disease or are merely thin, weak and emaciated, will thrive // on Scott’s Emulsion when all other treatment is of no avail. // . . . // No other kind of nourishment is so effective in Throat, Lung or Blood complaints, or in any condition of wasting or emaciation. // For Coughs, Colds, Sore Throat, Bronchitis, Weak // Lungs, Consumption, Loss of Flesh, Scrofula, Anemia // and Wasting Diseases of Children."
