BELOW PAR.”
A ROYAL PHYSICIAN'S EXPERIENCE.
"I feel completely done up"
How often does one heur that expres Bion, which means so much to the man ar woman who utters it and, as a rule, s little to those who bear it?
It betokens, of course, a condition of mental and physical lassitude, either of which may result from the other, and denotes that for some reason or other the individual is " below par," and that his vital forces are not working properly; It may be that the digestion is disordered and he is not able to assimilate sufficient food, or that his excretory organs are unable to keep the blood sufficiently pure, with the result that waste products in- crease in it and block, as it were, the vital functions in exactly the same way as Babes block a furnace.
It is obvious, too, that, as every func tion of the body is under the control of the nervous system, if the latter is" below par," the former will, likewise, in time, tend to work sluggishly.,
It is equally obvious, therefore, that
whether the cause is nervous or physical,
this condition of floppiness or ennui can be most readily removed by the use of a food which is easily digestible on the one hand and has no waste on the other, while if, at the same time, it directly nourishes the nervous system, its action in bringing about a cure will be even more rapid still.
All these qualities are possessed by Banatogen, that topic nerve food the chief medical men in every part of the
praises of which have been sung by the
world, and by thousands upon thousands. of their colleagues everywhere.
Sanatogen's power of digestibility is great that it is rapidly assimilated. It has been called by physicians "the food which is all food and no waste," and con- sequently it throws no strain on the exe cretory organs. Finally, as it contains phosphorous in the exact form in which it exists in the brain and nervous system, it restores them to their higheat power of activity, and thus benefits the whole body in the shortest time and most vital man ner possible. In his analysis, that dis tinguished Medical Officer of Health and Public Analyst, Sir Charles A. Cameron, C.B., M.D., F.L.C.P., states:-" Sanato gen contains a relatively large amount of organic phosphorus, ie, phosphorus which is offered to the tissues in exactly

EXTENHION OF THE HARLAND' AND WOLFT BUSINESS.
Two important shipyard transactions were reported in Glasgow on the 26th ult The directors of the London and Glasgow Engineering and Iron Shipbuilding Com pany (Limited), Lancefield-street and Govan, bave issued a circular to their shareholders in which they state that they have for some time considered that it would be in the interests of the share- holders to dispose of the undertaking by means of a sale of the shares of the coin- pany if a suitable purchaser could be found. Recently they were able to. ap- proach Messrs. Harland (Limited), Belfast, and they have con- cluded an agreement with that company under which Messrs. Harland and Wolff agree to purchase the whole of the abares of the London and Glasgow Company from the respective shareholders at a price of £0 38. net for each £9 share fully paid up.

BARCLAY, CULLE AND JOHN, SHEADER. The other transaction is connected with the firm of Messrs. Barclay, Curle & Co., shipbuilders, Whiteinch, Glasgow, who, it 18 announced, have purchased the yard and graving dock at Elderslie owned by Messra, John Shearer and Sons (Limited), Very little work has been done in the pari affaire a few years ago. No ships have since the firm rearranged their financial been built, but the graving dock has been operated fully all the time. Mesurs.

It is understood that although Messrs. Harland and Wolff have acquired the busi- ness work will be continued on the sarge. lines as in the past with respect both to mercantile and Naval contracts.
The firm of Messrs. John Shearer and Sone was founded about the middle of last century by Sir John Shearer's father. Their first yard was at Kingston Dock Later the firm removed to the shipyard -at-Kelvinbaugh at one time occupied by Mesure. Alex. Stephen and Sons, now of Linthouse. There they carried on busi- neas for a number of years, and about 12 years ago they acquired the ground at Elderslie where the new dock and yard to which they subsequently removed was constructed, the firm having been previ- ously converted into a limited liability company.
In August, 1507, the firm found it im- possible to raise sufficient funds to com- plete the new works at Elderslie and a ineeting of its shareholders was called. At that meeting it was decided that the firm should go into liquidation, and Mr. Charles Kerr, chartered accountant, was appointed liquidator Since that time the business has been carried on ns a going concern, although no attempt has been made to develop the shipbuilding side of the establishment. The yard is well situated for the building of vessels of moderate aize, It is understood that Messra. Barclay, Carle & Co. will enter into possession of the Elderslie yard on
