NATOGEN

Gives a Glorious Sensation

of Vigour and Well-being

The more highly-strung your nerves are, the more quickly they will respond to the intense invigorating effect of Sanatogen." But even the dullest nerves respond to it in time-feel the powerful access of energy that Sanatogen brings, and derive from it a new tone and elasticity.

Mr. Horace Hazeltine, the well-known Bovelist, writes-Slace I took my first cup of Sanatogen thorn has been a day-by-day gain in activity and energy. In less than a month it has wonderfully improved my condition. My appetite la healthy, I sleep like an infant, and awake each morning to the fresh joy of living."

Take your first cup of Sanatogen to day. And remember that it is no mere stimulant-producing reaction and other ill-effects-but a safe physiological re storative that has been proved to re-create nerve force: hence the delightful feeling of vitality and freshnem which if imparts.

T. P. STORIES OF SIR WILLIAM MADGE

With the sale of the People a very interpeting figure disappears from the journalism of London in the person of Sir Willäin Madgo. Never did any man stick to his business with more ex- traordinary, assiduity than this short, aloutish, bearded, alderly man, with his gleaming eyes behind gleaming glasses. says Mr. T. P. O'Connor in the Sunday Times.

Though be in 17 years of age he was at his office daily-sttended to the most minute details of the widely circulatoch paper, of which he became the sole pro prietor many years ago; doing it, too, with no assistance, excopt from his stafï.

The Globe, in which he was then inter- ested, bad published a very violent attack on the Irish members, Bo violent that the majority of the House, then predominant- ly Unionist, and not friendly to the Irish Nationalists, agreed to summon him and his editor to the bar of the House of Com.. mone. I am bound to say that Madgo bore the ordeal well; there wasd' an indication of tremor ar shamefacednes, in the strong face, almost bulldog in its suggestion of belligereney, and he was so disinclined to make a full apology that the Speaker, Mr. Peel-a very stern Speaker had to pull him up. Of course, I resented the attack on my comrades, and myself; but I couldn't help admiring the pluck of the little man who bore such a

RED HAIR FOR POPULARITY,

SIGN OF CONSCIOUSNESS IN BOYS AND GIRLS.

Professor Kar! Pearson, lecturing, to County Council school teachers as University College, London, recently, on "The Relation' of Health in Children to Mental and Moral Character," said "that: the medical man and the school, teacher were not going to alter to any great extent the health or intelligence of the child. That did not mean that education was not possible, but that the material was given them and 'the teacher, was not going to altor it,

The medical officer could create no change in the averago amount of health,

Dr. Pearson said his conclusiong were based on the study of cbservations by picked teachers of some thousands of boya and girls in kindergarters, board and middle schools.
