SOUTH AFRICA FACE
THEIR 2ND. DEFEAT
Stephenson's 3 Wickets For 3 Runs-Then Comes Nichols,
(Special Air Mail Service)
London, Aug. 21.
In the lovely August sunlight this evening the South Africans began a lightning gattack on the Essex batsmen. One of the attackers, Bell, bowled with a bandaged arm, risking aggravation of his recent Injury that may be grave,

tea score being 115 for five.
SHEFFIELD'S CATCHES
Dalton was caught by Shefeld, first slip, at 141-the beginning of afine young ex-stumper. Dalton bad made 65 this time: his place in the Test is now doubly certain. He had batted 100 minutes, though he took 40 of them on his final 15. They are still faced with a de-

CUTMORE SOON OUT Before Stephenson repeated the first part of yesterday's havoć, | Essex rounded off the task they had set about on the previous evening to go ahead on the first innings. They were 139 for four at the outset that is, 111 behind with Cutmore 82 and still unde- feated.
Nichols was enough, though, R smith took Langton's wicket, and Nichols followed with a swish and a swoop and the three remaining wickets fell in rip-rap time to his fierce in-swinger at 212, 218 and 223.

And so the South Africans ended. their 223 runs having carried the match to twenty past six and they had batted 220 minutes. And en-- thralling, lovable game!

Physicians know" by experience, how quickly and surely Samatogen will build up strength in debilitated patients.
Whatever the cause of the weakness, be it illness, overwork or worry, Sanatogen cannot fail to do good. The phosphorus. It contains is pure strength to the weakened nerve cells. The albumin is' nature's own building material of bodily power. It is the intricate com bination of these two elements that has won Sanatogen the written recommendations of over 25,000 physiciana
And the splendid part of it is that Sanatogen is not only ja true tonic-food, but also very easily digestible, so that
the weakest patient, and the weakest stomach, can digest it.
Sanategen must do you good. It does not interfere with any medical treatment, and every g'asalul brings you' nearer to perfect health again. Shorten that tedious period of convalescence. Be strong and healthy again. You can if you start your course of Sanatogen today.
