THE CURE
FOR SORE THROAT.
The painfulness of Sore Throat is familiar to everyone; it becomes pain- ful to speak, painful to breathe, painful to eat or drink.
Formamint tablets instantly soothe this pain.
Their favour is itself re-
froshing, and as soon as you begin to suck them they fill the flowing saliva with a powerful though harmless anti- septic, which soaks to the irritated membranes and quickly destroys the germs that cause sore throat.
NO SOLE THROAT WITN FORMAMINT.
To many people it will come as a suc- price to hear that conimos sore throat is really due to germs-those invisible atoms which we all run a risk of in- haling, especially in crowded and badly ventilated places. Having settled in the hot moist lining of the month and throat, they multiply with great rapidity, and thus produce the dryness, inflammation, and, swelling which con stitute Sore Throat.
ow it is obvious that if these germs are destroyed at once, Sore Throat and other infectious discases will be prevent- ed. And Formamint dues this; it gives the whole mouth and throat an anti- septic bath, so that even those germs which have found a lurking place in tiny crevices of the membranes, where nothing else could reach then, cannot escape from Formamint's penetrating power. Therefore, Formsmint not only cures Sore Throat, but also prevents it.
I find Wulling's Formamint tablets very beneficial for the throat," writes Madame Adelina Patti, The Queen of Bong.
The Viscount Massarcene and Ferrard, writes: "Sore Throat quickly disap- poars after using a few Formamint fablets."
Hundreds of other eminent people have also publicly testified to the value of Wulfing's Formamint. Among tho most distinguished users of the prepara tion are the Right Hon. Arthur J. Bal- four, MP., Lord Justice Buckley, Lord Kingsale, Lord Glaatawe, etc.
You know that such eminent people as these would not allow their names to be published if they had not proved for themselves the efficacy of Formamint. Their names are a guarantee that it would be worth your while to try For mamint, which can be obtained of all chemists, and also to send this coupon For a free sample and a free copy of a valuable hand-book on sore throat, diphtheria, etc., written by a London physician.
Only a limited number of samples and booklets are available for free distribu tion, and there is sure to be a quick demand for these. To prevent disap- pointment, you should post this coupon at once and thus make sure of securing. your copy. Wulfing's. Formamint can be obtained of all chemists in bottles containing 60 tablets. Insist on the genuine Formamint and refuse substi tutes.

BRITISH SUCCESS IN SPORT.

Without doubt these pessimists who during the last few years have croaked in raven-like accents of the deterioration of the English youth in sport must fol somewhat dejected by the doings of our young men in various important doings the past few days. Most important and most emphatic of all has been the succes of the M.C.C. team in Australia, and our

which the destination of those mythical" ashes," is the most gratifying and perhaps at the same time the most surprising result recorded in the world of sport for many a long day, When the English team for Australia was finally selected and set sail under the captaincy of the great little Mr. "Plum" Warner, there was a general feeling that was d

good, sound side if it played up to the VOILES,
form shown in England during the pre- vious summer, but at the same time the wideneres shook their heads and remarked mournfully, "There are too many raw recruits."
Of the sixteen men choser to represent their country ten had never visited Australia before and nine had never taken part in a Test match against the Australians. It was generally admitted, that with Mr. Warner as captain and with such famous Test players as Hobbs, Rhodes, Gunn, and Barnes on the side the team would not disgrace itself, but to win the rubber was practically but of the ques tion against such a team as Australis could put in the field. When one con sidered the "strength of the Australian batsmen one almost wondered bow on earth they were to be got out., Mr. Hill, the Australian captain, the greatest loft- hand bat the world has ever seen; Mr. Trumper, who ranka with the great "W.G." and "Ranji"; Mr. Bardsley, the hero of two centuries in
one Test match against England; Mr. Ransford, who scored a century at Lord's; and, last but not least, Mr. Armstrong, a most stubborn opponent when matters are going wrong for the side. Moreover, there were other batsmen who had bean doing great things in Australia. Indeed, it seemed a case of pitting David against
Goliath, for in addition to their lack of knowledge of Australia and Test match tactics many of the English players were afflicted with extreme youth. Mr. Foster is only just twenty-two years of age, "Young Jack Hearne is just twenty- ohe, and Mr. Douglas, Woolley, Mead, Smith, Hitch, and Hobbs are all under thirty years of age. Who were they to give battle to the hardened veterans of Australia To add to tho difficulties of the situation, before the Test match Mr. Warner, was taken seriously ill, and as A
consequence the responsibilities of office fell on the shoulders of Mr. Douglas, who had never hitherto figured in Test cricket, and who was visiting Australia for the firet time. It is a matter of history now how the Englishmen Iost the first match by 146 runs, but though beaten they were in no way dismayed, and the "youngsters" of the team fairly earned their spurs, Mr. Foster, scoring 56 and 21 and talking seven wickets in the match, while Hearne, at very critical periods in the game, score1 70 and 43 with all the coolness of an old hand;
A great player, who had many times visited Australia, said after this match. "If the young 'uns are going to play like this I should not be surprised if we won the rubber." His judgment has been quickly confirmed, and the young 'uns" have continued to "play like this." In the second Test match Hearne covered himself with glory, by scoring a magni- ficent century, and after Barnes had paved the way for victory in the first innings Mr. Foster captured six Austra- lian wickets in the second innings. The. credit for England's victory in the third Test match at Adelaide largely belongs to Mr. Foster and Hobbs. The former, bowling with matchless skill, took five wickets for 36 runs and hit up 71 runs, while Hobbs scored 187. And so to this last and glorious victory at Melbourne which gave England the rubber. Here again the youngeters, with the aid of their more elderly comrades, played 隐 conspicuous part. Mr. Foster and Bernes captured nine of the Australian wickets in the first innings, and Hobbs and Rhodes made cricket history by put ting on 323 runs for the first wicket, a record in Test match oricket. Woolley and Mr. Foster, too, each scored fifty runs, and with George Gunn, of Nottingham, helped to raise the score to 589, a record total for an innings in a Test match,

Recently, too, the world of chess has been startled by the brillinuce of Mr. Capablanca, who at the age of twenty defeated all the great masters, one of his greatest feats being his victory over Mr. Marshall, the American champion, by seven games to one. And so in games THE of all kinda where physical and mental abilities are required youth is pressing hard on the heels of age, and there would appear to be no doubt that, there is no deterioration in this respect among the
In every one of the Test matches one or more of the younger members of the team have played a most conspicuous part, and great praise must be awarded to Mr. Douglas, who has skippered the side with conspicuous skill, more especially in this last match, when he adopted the bold policy of putting the Australians in to bat after having won the toss. The most gratifying feature of the "youngsters" saccesses, however, is the fact that for many years to come now England should fairly hold her own in the world of cricket, her own particular game. A year or two ago the critics were groaning sorrowinlly over the dearth of young talent."Who will take the places of Hayward, Hirst, Lilley, and Mr. MacLaren? There are no good young uns coming on," was the general lament. The question has been very quickly and very decisively answered. Already E. J. Smith (the wicket-keeper), Mr. Foster, and Hearne have proved con- elusively that they are Test match players, and with Hobbs and Gunn only just approaching their prime there is a quorum round which to build up as strong a team to represent England in the future as any rising generation. that has done battle-in the past..
