How many people, crippled and lame from rheumatism,
owe their concmioo to neglected or incorrect treatment!
It is the exact combination of pure Norwegian Cod Liver
Oil with glycerine and hypophosphites as contained in

fthat has made Scott'a famous for relieving rheuma
tism when other treatments have utterly failed.
If you are a rheumatism sufferer, or feel its first
symptoms, start on Scott'a Emulaion at once.

This is to notify all users of automobile, bicycle and

sold here equal to them. A written guarantee. Should
one go bad, then the most liberal settlement. Ask
those using Pennsylvania Rubber Company's goods.
