THE LAND OF THE FUTU RE,

RUSSIA'S 'GREAT SCHEME OF

SIBERIAN EXPANSION.

Russia's dramatic coup in the Far East, by which she has deprived the Chinese Empire of the vast province of Outer Mongolia, will not only add a million square miles of territory and some 3,000,000 people to the Russian sphere of influence, but also means another step forward in the great schemes of Siberian expansion which have occupied the Government unceasingly since the war with Japan.

In considering the subseruent feeding of the sufferer, there is nothing upon which reliance may be more confidently placed than Sanatogen, which the physicians to practically all the crowned heads of Europe use to main tain and restore the health of their royal patients.

WHY IT IS SO. VALUABLE.

It would be impossible to exaggerate the value of this preparation for the inhabitants of hot countries, and those who are subject to the enervating influences and diseases due to the climate. Composed of the body. building elements of the purest cow's milk, "chemically combined" with that salt of phosphorus which is found in the nervous system, Sanatogen exercises 4 qutritive Influence over the whole body, which is as powerful as it is perfect.

It revitalises the blood, increasing the number of red corpuscles and their vital enlouring matter on which depends their ability to absorb oxygen from the atmosphere and thus keep the tissues clean and the bodily furnaces working properly. It re-invigorates the nervous system, filling the body with a sense of vim and snap which makes a plea sure of the mere physical act of living, while it quickens the functions of the brain and restores the possibly failing memory to its full power of rapidly recalling any impression It desires. It is easily digested, so that it Intposes no strain whatever on the often undermined digestive system; it removes any sense of weariness from the muscles and makes them strong and firm instead of flabby and soft, as they so often are after an attack of dysentery.

CONVINCING MEDICAL TESTIMONY,

Siberia, Russia's vast hinterland, stretche Ocean, has long been recognised as a land of immense potentialides. Once it was the land of the exile. Now it is the land of the emigrant, where the Russian peasant under his own flag may find a new home and new! opportunities.

its attention eastward, and since then the NEW tide of emigration to the cast has been con- stantly increasing in volume,

Today the population of the 4,817,687 square miles comprising Siberia is 8,220, 100, or under two people to the square "mile. When it is pointed out that in European Russia the population averages sixty-two persona, to the square mile it will be under- stood what vast solitudes there remain to be filled.

·RICTIES OF SIBERIA,

In the popular imagination, especially the Imagination fed by melodrama and sensational fiction, Siberia is a desert waste, icebound and snow-covered, with salt mines dotted here and there, in which victims of Russian tyranny grind out their lives in daily misery. As a matter of fact it is a country with wide stretches of rich black earth, waiting only for the farmer to become fruit- ful, with vast hidden stores of coal, Iron, silver, and even gold, and with magnificent forests, rivalling in their lumber possibilities the great wooden harvests of the American Continent, **

Whether it be soon or late, It is a country destined to play a large part in the production of the world's food supply, and even to-day, when its development has but, begun, it is producing 170,000,000 poods-a pood equalling 36lbs. of cereals a year, while great flacks of sheep are being reared on its great prairies or steppes.

All these facts have been vouched for by bundreds of doctors practising throughout the length and breadth of China, as well as In other countries whose climate makes dysentery a common disease. These doctors have written letters over their own signatures describing the results they have obtained. Here are extracts from one or two of such letters, although, unfortunately, in accord-land-is still uncut. ance with medical etiquette, the names of the physicians cannot be mentioned.

Dr. P. K. C., Darioh, writes: I have used Sanatogen in the treatment of dysentery and enteric fever and found very useful, It has a high nutritional value, and is very useful in ulcerated conditions of the Intestines."!

Many schemes for the creation of new Industries and the exploitation of the vast mineral and agricultural wealth of the country have been put forward, but the difficulties in the way have militated against sucDESS, The Freatest want, of Siberia is railways, and now that the Government is realising this the new era for the country is beginning to open up.

A MATTER OF MILLIONS,

The first great achievement in this direc tion was the construction of the great Siberian Railway; In which over

140,000,000 was sunk before it was cont pleted. It stretches from Moscow to Vladivostock, a distance of 5,537 miles, every inch, except the last strip across Manchuria, being in Russian territory.

Dr. H. H. W. H., Babugarh, United Provinces, writes: I have much pleasure In certifying to the value of Sanatogen in cases of dysentery, enteric fever and other exhausting diseases. I have used It regularly now in my practice for the past two years, and in no single instance have I been dis- appointed with its results. I can honestly affim that many of my worst cases owed their recovery to Sanatogén. I could quate numerous cases where the administration of This great achievement was but the Sanatogen was followed by immediate and foundation, as it were, of the Russian. tarked amelioration of the symptoms.

COMMERCIAL POSSIBILITIES.

So far as the line to Peking is concerned, it was at first proposed that Russia should bear the cost of the line to Kiahkta, and that the remainder of the work should be carried on by the Chinese authorities. Now Russia announces that she has determined to con- struct the railway herself as far as Urga, in Mongolia, in order to tap the trade route through Mongolia into China.

The continuation of the line to Peking is a matter for the future, and it will be probably constructed under International auspices should, the condition of Calna make her unwilling or unable to undertake the work.

The great commercial possibilities of Siberia are already being recognised in Europe, especially in Germany. Since the war the Russian objection to foreign consuls has been withdrawn, and the German Government, ever awake to the interests of its trading community, has established con- suls in all the Important towns along the Siberian Railway, while German commercial travellers are already to be found busily selling their wares from one end of Siberia to the other.
