take Sanatogen regularly for

several weeks

This urgent advice is given by physicians every day, In every civilised country, to sufferers from Nervous Debility, Brain-fag, Lack of Vitality, Sleeplessness, Disordered Digestion, Poverty of Blood and various Wasting Diseases.

Physicians know that Sanatogen is a true scientific compound of organic phosphorns and pure concen.. trated proteid, forming a new substance which is eagerly and completely absorbed by the tissues and possesses unique tonic and reconstructive qualities.

The Supreme Restorative.

Physicians can speak from experience of the great recuperative effects which Sanatogen has upon the brain, nerves, blood and muscles. They have watched Its revivifying action upon people whose nervous strength has been depleted by over-work, worry of disease. They have noted bow Sanatogen gives lasting benefit, how it regenerates the appetite and digestion, brings back the bloom to the cheek, replaces wakeful nights by sound refreshing sleep- in short, enables the human machinery to perform its functions so perfectly that the patient loses his depression of spirits, gains confidence and courage, and finds life again worth living.

Fighting Malaria and Dysentery.

Apart from its value as a general tonic, Sanato- geo is of the greatest service to the physician in fighting Malaria, Dysentery and other scourges of tropical climates.

On this subject, Dr. H. H. W. H., of Babu- garah, United Provinces, writes:-"I have much pleasure in certifying to the value of Sanstogen in cases of Dysentery, Enteric Fever and other exhausting diseases. I have used it regularly in my practice for the past two years, and in no single instance have I been disappointed with its results. I can honestly affirm that many of my worst cases owe their recovery to Sanatogen.”

Try Sanatogen To-day.

At the head offices of the manufacturers of Sanatogen there are filed more than fourteen thousand letters from practising physicians who certify to the value of Sapatogen. Truly a magnificent monument to the value of this unique tonic-food! But no less impressive is the enthusiastic testimony of patients themselves. Thousands of well-known people in every walk of life have publicly testified to the wouderful benefits they have received from Sanatogen, and a few of their letters are reproduced here.

"Begin to take Sanatogen to-day, and thus lay the foundation of new Health and nerve force. You can get Sanatogen in Hong Kong from Messn. 4. S. Watson & Co.; The Sincere Co., Ltd., 215/a1. Vosveux Boad; and of all Chemists.

"

The Hon. Mr. Justica

Robertson, Judge of the Supreme Court, Lahore, Punjab, write:"My experience with Sanatogen has been very favourable. I took it for some mouths during the most trying season of the year, and found it a great strengthener."!

Sir Charles A. Cameron,

the thyroid gland of a healthy subject was excised and transplanted into one of the kidacys of the patient, who is a child. The grafting operation was $ success, and after being under observa- tion for a month the case was discharged 08 a complete, cure. The Daily Tele- graph's Berlin correspondent says:-It la said that Dr. Payr has had success with many similar operations, and Bone years ago restored the reason of an imbecils i child by grafting on to the spleen a piece of healthy thyroid. Of course, such treat- ment would only act where the absence of the thyroid was the cause of the dis

ROYAL ROMANCE.

The Archduchess Elisabeth Franciska, the favourite granddaughter of the Em peror Francis Joseph, was betrothed last month in the presence of the Emperor to her brother's tutor, Count George Wald- burg, alioutenant of dragoons, in re sidence with her parents at Wallsee. The Emperor went to Wallsee for the Easter

holidaye, this being the first time he has

left Vienna since the autumn. He has always shown himself hostile to mésalli-

ances, but this onse cannot be counted as

one, as Count Waldburg; though poor and obliged to take tutor's work as he is un- able to live on his army pay, belongs to a former minor German ruling family which is, now mediatised. The betrothal will.

FLIRTING WITH A JURY,

The following New York dispatch appears in a Londen paper m

"Five hundred pounds damages for the |plaintiff ? is the verdict returned by a Chicago jury, which has spent a fortnight listening to the evidence in a suit brought by Miss Eather Mercy, a young lady described as being of surpassing beauty, who sued Misa Marion Talbot, the dean of the Chicago University for Women, for £20,000 for slander. Miss Mercy is known as "the Hat Girl," because of a £50 bat which is alleged to have caused her expulsion from the university, The dean objected to her betrothal to a married nun awaiting divorce and de clared that it was improper for her to accept a hat from him. Miss Mercy complained of the remarks addressed to her by the dean when she was expelled, and contended that the actual reason of the faculty's disapproval of hor

The Judicial Commissioner in his aum- ming up referred to the fact that the prosecution did not cross-examine the witnesses for the defence, a clear indica- tion that the public prosecutor was in agreement with Mr. Turner as to the insanity of the accused. He placed the facta before the jury and paralleled there- with the evidence for the defence, instructing them to bring a verdict of guilty in accordance with the facts admitted or of not guilty on the ground that the accused was insane at the time he committed the offence. The jury, after an absence of five minutes, returned a verdict of not guilty. The accused was ordered to be detained during His Excellency the Governor's pleasure.
