ABRIGHTOUTLOOK FOR SUFFERERS.
The interest in Malaria to every dweller in China is necessarily overwhelming, for in con- alitutional offects are so far-reaching and ite devitalising power is so great that it is con stantly spoken of as "The Scourge of the Tropics,"
As is generally known, Malaria' is due to parasites which feed on the active substanco- the hemoglobis-of the, red blood corpuscles. The patient that suffers from Ausmia, and as the microbes maltiply and the blood is further destroyed the condition degenerates into what is known as Cachoria, au impairment of the general isso vitality which involves the norvoos, muscular, mental, circulatory, respira. tory, digestivo and other systems. The Malaria pationt complains of many depressing symptoms, including loss of momory, impairment of the vision, depression of the spirite, insomnia. digestive disorders, lassitudo, wasting and over increasing weakness-all of which make life burden.
Happily, through the discovery of a prepara tion which is a powerful in evercoming thes terrible after effects as quinine is in curing the early rigors of Malaris, the disease has lost ita terrota
This preparation is Sanatogen, the most powerful revitalising and restorativo agent the world has known, which bas produced afecta described by dretora as little short of mary-lions in saving life and restoring moribund patients to perfect health,
