Conquer Malarial Debility
"As long as I live I shall pray for the continued success of Sanatogen, which has saved my life. As a result of res peated attacks of malarial fever, I had become an absülute wreck and could not eat anything."
"The doctor prescribed Sanatogen, I have had no more dttacks of fever, my digestion, is now perfect and I can eat and enjoy my food, a great indescribable feeling of cheerfulness has come over
me," wrote Mr. M. J. Seth of Bombay. The destructive work of the malaria parasite makes your blood thin, and, even when quinine has killed the parasite, this poverty of blood remains.
A short course of Sanatogen will strengthen the cells and tissues of nerves and body, in- creasing the quantity of red blood corpuscles.
In the "Medical Echo" of March, 1924, a physician writes on his results ob tained with Sanatagen in 80 cases of anaemia. The average increase of red blood corpuscles in these cases was as high as 60% within three weeks.

They were sitting in a row as I entered the room-six huddled figures, each wearing a gas mask. A tube from each mask dle- appeared through a hole in the wall of a cubicle.
"You'd hardly think they were breathing flitered poison gas, would you?" asked my guide.
I looked through a window into the cubicle and saw, a chemical filter at the other end of each tuba. The filter stopped, the gas from passing, and all that the six men had to do was to breathe! the purified air that came through the tube.
If a suspicion of gas reached one of the men he would take off his mask. This would show that the filter was faulty.

DIVING OUTFIT.
In response to my look of sur prise, he told me they were test ing that morning a new self-con- tained diving outfit.
We descended many stairs, and reached the tank room. There we watched a diver in the tank withi an outfit like the mine rescue ap- paratus. It had no air pipe. The diver was independent of air supplies from the surface, and so ran no risk of death through a breakage in the pipe.
Near the tank was a re-com- pression chamber-the only one in London. If a diver comes up too quickly, thus returning rapid- ly to a much lower pressure, the compressed nitrogen in his blood |tries to bubble out, and the re
