part in South Africa that it forms no in- considerable feature of the story. The 'Lancet has had frequent references to Bovril in the reports of the officers of the Royal Army Medical Corps. Nearly every newspaper correspondent has had to refer to Bovril to make his story complete. Budyard Kipling and Baden-Powell have written their Beril stories. Over 500 British hospitals and similar public in. stitutions use and prescribe Bovril, ot beef tea, bat Beyr!l.

The reason is not far to seek. Bovril is ancurnisher as well as a stimulant. It contains the albumen and fibrine, the sustaining properties of the beef. It is this fact, together with its absolute purity, that commends Bovril to physcians and scientists, and proves in practice what it demonstrates in analysis.

A cold from the bronchial tubes. oires a more abundant secretion of mucus. and when the lungs and bronchial tubes are inflamed, they are extremely sensitive to the irritation. Unless care is taken, the cold may result in pneumonia, which is swift and deadly. If the cold is a lingering one, the more leisurely but equally fatal consumption way set in.
