His Lordship gave judgment, with costs, for defendant (Tin Kam-fui), who was sued by "Lau Ming-har" for $190 principal and $44.50 interest on money alleged to have been lent.

Nerve-Strength
in hot climates.
*I am stronger than ever before,” wrote a Sonatogen-wer, after having taken this preparation for a time.
A hot climate has made many a man a nervous gwreck. Remember, however, that you can be strong and full of energy, if you take Sanatogen regularly.
Sanatogen by the power of its constituents- albumin and phosphorus-infuses into the cells of nerves, blood and body, exactly those elements which build up nerve-strength lastingly.
Prof, Manu, formerly of Oxford University, wrote is
The Lancet:
*Abuilding-up process goes on in the nerves after the administration of Sanatogen."
Nerve, urakanud by debility

Begin a course of Sapatogen. Add strength to strength, work more and better, conquer fatigue and. enjoy life even in a hot climate.
