SANATOGEN
The Tonic Food
Sir Gilbert Parker, M.P., the famous Statesman and Author, writer:-"I have nsed Saratogen with extraordinary benefit. It is a true toric food, feeding the nerves, increasing the energy, and giving fresh vigour to the overworked body and mind.”
The Right Honourable Sir John Gorst, Privy Councillor to the King of England, writes: Sir John Gorsi wishes to say he has long been acquainted with the great merils of Sanatogen has taken it with excellent results, and when necessary will certainly take it again, It was also used by a daughter of his with great benefit.”

LONDON CLUBS,
THEIR CHANGING SPIRIT.
-
One may frequently hear it said that clubs are going out of date, says the Times Certainly there has been not a little perturbation among committees over the scarcity of recruits, and few clubs can now afford the luxury of using black balls as freely as in the days when Sheridan had so much difficulty in getting into Brooks's. Institutions at which a long waiting-list" has been the immemorial rule have had to have recourse to the expedient of ausponding entrance fees; and into most- clubs now a candidate way hope to gain! admission in as many months as once it would have taken years. Some once prosperous clubs have been glad to escape decease from inasition by coalescing with Ia sister establishment. But all this is no more than the changing fashion of a demuneratic age. So far from clubs going fout of date, their number continues to increase enormously. Mr. Nevill, in his book on London Clubs," estimates that in the last 30 years over one hundred new clubs had come into being, dividing among them a membership of no fewer than 120,000. In the case of a century the total membership of London clubs have increased from about 1,200 to seine 200,000. There are many more clubraen, but there are ar many more clubs, and competi

The standard of luxury in the appointanents and cuisine is also much higher than it was, while the individual enbor uses his dub less and contributes proportion- ately less to its upkeep. Most men now- adays are members of several clubs, some of which they may not eliter from one?
