TROPICAL DEBILITY.

HOW TO FIGHT IT.

Of all the evils which the inhabitant of the torrid zone is called upon to endure, the greatest are, perhops, the deadly debility, and nervous depression which are the forerunners of the more serious ills so rife in warmer latitudes. Physical fitness should be the constant watchword; healthy nerve force must be the subject of the most earnest consideration. Heppinoes, may life itself, hangs in the balance,

Wise."

-POTE, January and May.

Nothing is more remarkable for its persis tenoy than a popular deolusion. Born of error und bred by ignorance, it sneaks into life un- noticed and takes centuries in the killing. One rarely knows its parentage or date of birth, yat the foundling refuses to die. It resptibles those animals of which zoologists tell us that, if chep ped into mincemeat each particle starts afrosh and becomes a now creature. When we think we say we make very much alive; as we try y te destroy we re-create. Truth is fragile, short- lived, unobtrusive, easily obscured, cold, naked, aapalatable; bat o lie is tough, perounisl, bold, inextinguishable, forvent, woll restared, and sweat to the taste. Suppress it here it will rise thore, Its olasticity preserves it under all tirenmatancos, Ita vitality scoffs at time and death.

When exhausted. Nature fails readily to respond to the extraordinary demands made upon the system by the exigencies of climate, Science once more comes forward with precisely the needed rumody. Banatogen, the tonic food, is the means discovered whereby impaired vitality may be safely and rapidly restored.

Sunatogen has a dingalar effectiveness. It is not as a tonic only that it stands unrivalled, it is, besides, a perfent food, extremely rich in just these properties necessary to the perfect nourish ment of the depleted system. The basis of

This is the reason, then, why Sanategou has obtained its high reputation. It repairs the wear and tear of the most vital parts of our frames, and above all it gives to brain and nerve their essential food in precisely the form in which they are capable of readily receiving and assimilating it.

Doctors in tropical climates have not been slow to see the wonderful advantages in the uso of Sanategen meng their patients, and a great many of them have written setting out the success that has attended the use of this pro. paration. They have used it with the greatest success in Molaris, Dysentery, Enteric Fever, cases of Plague and Cholem, as well as amongst those who are suffering from silments due to disordered liver, spleen or digestive system. One or two of their opinions are worth con sidering.

Thus Dr. H. H. W. HART, Hapur Remoant Dopot, Babugarh, United Provinces, India, writes:---

Nevertheless, though we fail in the endeavour, there is one we would attack. It has come down to us through the ages from the mists of antiquity, venerated and universally believed.

Man is her lord and master to whose behests she must submit.
