In these cases, diet exercises an important Influence, and European sufferers are not to feel particularly weak when they first exclude the meat and alcohol to which they have been accustomed. This feeling can, however, be relieved with consummate ense by the simple process of using Sanatogen.

Signa were not wanting that this would be a hard lesson for her to learn. NEW She had grown so accustomed to a 'irihal fringe to the barbarian borders to the north and south and west of her broad domains- that she was slow to realize the rapidity with which her modern advance was bringing her to new and undreamed of frontier conditions.
THE PROBLEM OF THE FRONTIER,
Moreover, Sanatogen is so easily digested that it puts no strain on the disordered stomach and liver, and it rapidly brings about that feeling of well-being which is so essential for the vigorous enjoyment of life. On all sides of the frontier were broad These statements can all be easily verified, problems of exploration, the unknown reaches for every reader must have among his of the Brahmaputrit, and the white patch on acquaintance many people who have derived the map through which the Upper Salwin benefit from Sanatogen, since it is so Bows.

For there could be no stopping of the clock; the process of absorption was as inevitable and as unresting as the sun in its course. Perhaps it was this relentless force of nature which had brought the ques tion of the frontier so forcibly to our notice in the course of the past few years. China was awakening to her responsibilities as much as to her rights. She was founding an army a representative Government, a modern learning, and a new Press. Some. times the times seemed out of joint, the Internal situation would not balance iself, the external situation became top-heavy, and then clouds gathered on the frontier horizons.

If so, it was difficult to know what would happen, for it was hardly possible that she could maintain a heavy expenditure for her military and administrative machinery on the Tibetan border for an indefinite time, and we had yet to learn if the bold spirit of the Thetans would consent to a purely Chinese rule not hacked by overwhelming forces. Be that as it may, the border problem remained the same, India and China must meet along some thousands of miles of frontier and meet as neighbours, willing to work band in hand towards the solution of those difficult border problems which beset them both the ad ministration of the tribes, the substitution of justice and law and order, of well protected trade and agricultural prosperity, for the feuds and individualism and poverty that have marked the tribal belt in the past,
