SORE THROAT:

Its Cause and Cure.

If your throat is aorp, swollen, inflamed if it hurts you to speak or swallow--you should at once take some Formamint Tablets.

They case the pain at once-cure the Sore Throat quickly-prevent further attacks and safeguard you against in- Fectious diseases due to germs.

Germs are breathed out by the sick, and we inhale them from the air. They are seeds-living atons of plant life-80 small that we can only see them through microscope, and then they look like mere specks, as shown in the above illustration.

These germs grow and multiply at a great speed in the warm moist lining of the mouth cavity. They also throw off poisons which cause various throat troubles and infectious diseases.

The most thorough and certain way to kill these germs in the mouth and throat is to suck Formamint Tablets, which are both a cure for threat troubles and a preventive of infectious diseases like Diphtheria, Corisumption of the Lungs, Scarlet Fever, Measles, and Tonsillitis.

Praised by Physicians and

the Public.

Formamint is a genuine remedy. Over 7,000 physicians have publicly certified to its value. Hundreds of eminent people are also Formamint

users, including the Rt. Hon. A. J. Balfour, M.P., Lord Justice Buckley, and Queen Alexandra's confidential secretary the Hon. Charlotte Knollys,

The Archdeacon of Bristol writes: "I habitually use Formamintas a preventive of Sore Throat. Viscuent Ferrard writes: Sore Throat quickly disappears after using Formamint Tablets," Signor Caruso, the world-famous tenor, writes:-- "I have found Wulflug's Formamint Tablets very beneficial to the throat and pleasant to the taste."

2.

Among medical men, Professor Seifert, M.D., the famous specialist, writes in The Medical Press and Circular:- "I attach great significance to the worth of Formumint Tablets. They are splen- didly adapted asa preventive of infectious discuses, and I have prescribed them extensively in Tonsillitis, etc."

Why continue to suffer from Sore Throat? Try this effective remedy, which, by the way, is both palatable and harmless.

It can be purchased at all Chemists in hotties of 50 tablets. But insist on genuine Wulfing's Formamint, and refuse worthless substitutes.

THE EUROPEAN IN THE TROPICS.

An interesting article on the effects of a tropical climate on white men appears in the new issue of the Indian Medical Gazette. Many deleterious influences have been assigned to the tropical sun, and for some years a theory which is based on the detrimental action of the actinic rays of the spectrum has found support. According to the advocates of this view, the use of orange-red hat linings and underwear was necessary to protection against these The

rays.

examined by the Board for the Study of Tropies! Diseases which has been estab lished at Manile. The climate of the. Philippines at one time worked havoc among the Americans, and here the actinic ray theory was invoked to account for the morbidity and mortality among American officials and residents. But the since been car which have vestigations

improvement in community, tend

to discredit the malign influence of the

sanlight. The supponburn as evidenco of the actinic roy theory pointed to of the injury which the rays caused, and alleged that the harmful waves pigmented skin absorbs is, however, a matter

of experience that ordinary clothing will prevent sunburn and tauning, the sap- posed consequences of exposure to actinic rage, and it follows that no special cloth- ing ja seeded. The argument from a com- monsense view is borne ont by the experi- ments of the Board, which showed that no benefit resulted from the wearing of coloured clothing. The real causes of injury to the health of Europeans are heat and humidity, combined with various infections, nostalgia, and monotony.

BRITISH POLICY IN CHINA.

The Pull Mall Gazette of the 28th ult. says:-

The new Peking correspondent of the Times refers, in a telegram published this final morning, to Sir John Jordan's warning to China on the subject of the opium trade. What is the use of talking of h final warning" when Great Britain means to do absolutely nothing at all? We do not for a moment urge that activa pressure should be brought to bear upon China to fulfil her share of the Opium Agreement of 1011. Our protest is against the present Foreign Office method of handling this and other Asiatic ques- tions which intimately concern Great Britain. Yesterday, for examele, even the Chinese Government, weak and un-

is, supported though it still audacious enough to hand Great Britain a reply about Tibet which flagrantly ignores the validity of the Lhasa Treaty. We do not think there is another Great Power which would permit China to send such a reply, which is as near insulting as can be conceived. The communication becomes additionally wounding when it is remembered that the Peking authorities have taken four months to answer a sharn adinonitory Note. Its insolent character will be even better understood when we state, as a fact, that China is at present preparing for a fresh invasion of Tibet,' despite British protests..

Was

Wherever one turns in Asia just now, British policy is inept, British prestige ia low, British claims and representations are treated with contempt. The cause is to be found in each instance of Foreign Office methods. We have given two pre- sent examples drawn froin China, but consider further the case of Southern Persia. Again and again our consular and other officers have been attacked on the trade routes. The latest and most

rious incident was the murder of Captif Eckford. Nothing has been done to bring the perpetrators of that outrage to justice Nothing ever will be done. Bir Edward Grey has referred to the matter as very serious, and so it is, though not chiefly for the reason which he advances. These successive foutings of Great Britain in Asin are primarily serious, because Great Britain bersolf How can we a great Asiatic Power. expect to hold India when we allow ourselves to be contemptuously disregard- ed by other Asiatic Governments?
