Vintage Boots Bottle

Mr BBB picked up this old glass bottle at a market today – I love that it still has the handwritten label. The label is still clear but the writing is so cramped. What I can make out is whatever was in it had to be taken in the quantity of one tablespoonful twice daily (hope it tasted nice..that’s quite a lot to glug down), it was signed off by an Mr or Mrs Hubbard. The label also reads with the Boots logo “Cash Chemists (Southern) Ltd.” It was dispensed in Southend on Sea in Essex.
