Keep up your powers of resistance, renew your blood, strengthen your nerves-with Sanatogen. "Sanatogen goes to the cofe of well-being, viz., the cells, and builds these up into a permanent and solid fabric of health," writes a leading/physitian.
And in that way-going to the very root of the matter. -Sanatogen will keep you young. Sanatogen builds up a reserve of health, conquers fatigue and 'gives new energy and joy of life. Nervousness, irritability, sleeplessness, and fatigue will be forgotten, for, as a physician wrote in "The Medical Press and Circular":
"Sanatogen has an immediate and remarkable "effect, shown by a steady increase of muscular, strength and energy. At the same time the colour is brought back to the patients' chicks.”

But whatever course of action or inaction is followed by the too sensitive individual regarding great lies, there is only one which is appropriate and effectual to be followed when great lies are cir- culated
about groups of in- dividuals, such as the formidable group formed by the workers in the field of education, and that is a course of systematic, vigorous, persistent action. Whenever such great lies emerge it will be wise to act promptly. Attack. re- buttal, and exposure will diminish. the effect of all and kill most of the great lies. The technique of attack will comprise the art of histing different heads in corres- pondingly different ways. Some,
for example, are to be coaxed out of a partially protected position by a preliminary playful touch. to be followed up by the coup de grâce when fully exposed. I can well remember a superbly con- fident ignoramus, a man of «re- pute in his own profession; de-, nouncing our schools, Our teachers, and their methods, with a profusion of glibly recited details at a certain meeting. I had the temerity to say that the meeting should express its high. appreciation of his address, which was so obviously founded on deep research and minute observation, and that being professionally in- terested in education I should like

After tea Dr. Blain, in a few very expressive and well-chosen words, offered the hearty congratulations of the community to Dr. and Mrs. Main. He said that the com- munity had met to congratulate Dr and Mrs. Main, but that they were really congratulating themselves because of the goodness of the Lord in giving them such people as the. Mains to be amongst them for so many years. -
Dr. Main, in a few cordial words, thanked the Missionary Association for their very warm and generous expressions of love and goodwill. Mrs. Main was also called upon to say a few words, and she said that it was quite possible that both she and Dr. Main might still be in Hangchow for their next birthday.. although the plan at present is to "say "goodbye" in November.-"N.
