BOVRIL ISN'T DEAR,

in fact, value for value, it is one of the cheapest drinks and one of the most economical foods that can be obtained. A cup of hot Bovril costs less than a drink of whisky, and while giving a more genuine and lasting warmth than the latter, contains, in addition, the nutritive principles of beef worth many times its cost.
Old fasoned beef teas and meat extracts, whether known as such, or disguised under more pretens modern names contain none of the NUTRITIVE properties of beef. Baron Liebig himipif admitted this fact; there is not a doctor to-day disputes it. Used as a nourishment Meat Extract is probably the most expensive article one can buy.. Bovril ona of the cheapest.
