Restful Nights

mean vigorous days

Sleeplessness is a sign of nervous debility. You need not suffer from weakened nerves if only. you take care to strengthen your system with Sanatogen. Sanatogen infuses into your nerve- cells phosphorus and albumin which build up. new strength and energy.

In an entirely natural way Sanatogen will conquer your sleeplessness and its consequences-fatigue, listlessness and 'depression-and you will soon enjoy restful sleep and all-day fitness again.

Miss Norma Lorimer, the well-known authoress,

writes:

"I tried it (Sanatogen), as I have tried to many other things when I have suffered from steeplessness and general debility, without expecting it to do me much good. Therefore I am more than pleased to have found at last she ideal tonic.”

Sanatogen banishes your nerve troubles, renews your blood, strengthens and builds up your system. into a solid and permanent fabric of health.

The Royal Technical College of Glasgow is the oldest technical col- loge in the world. Its name and its form of government have changed, but it is still essentially "The Andersonian," founded in) 1796 under the will, of John Anderson, M.A., F.R.S., Professor) of Natural Philosophy in the Uni- versity of Glasgow. Indeed, it may be claimed that, to carry the his-: tory of Technical Education a stage: farther back, Professor Anderson was the first technical teacher, and that James Watt was. If not the first, at least the most prominent of his technical students. Anderson was Watt's "early and attached friend, whose house, conversation. library and valuable scientific ap- paratus had been at all times free to satisfy the strongly awakened exigencies of that inquisitivo and was available to students in con- ingenious mind." It was Anderson nection with the Chair of Techaj- who placed in Watt's hands that cal Chemistry which he founded in model of Newcomen's engine, stil! 1870.
