When we have produced an antiseptic which can be taken internally without risk
of injury to cell-tique, we shall have conquered infectious disease."--LORD LISTER,
MALARIA
and
'Yadil' Antiseptic
THE reports received from various parts of the Empire as to the results obtained in malaria with Yadil Antiseptic deserve the careful attention of all sufferers from that disease. If further experience should support these reports, it means that malaria has at last been conquered. It appears that one, or two doses are generally sufficient to check an attack at the onset, and prevent its developing. Sufferers who have been in the habit of going to bed for a week or more during an attack are able to continue their daily work, when they take a dose or two of Yadit at the first warning of a return of the disease. All reports but one are based on the use of liquid Yadil'; in that one. case, the Pills have proved equally effective.
T
HE true value of 'Yadil' in the treatment of malaria can only be definitely established by the sufferers themselves, and not by laboratory experiments. I sincerely trust that all.. those who use Yadil for this disease will kindly report their experience, to me, or to the news- papers. If it should turn out that Yadil is suc cessful only in a small proportion of cases, I should not hesitate to make the fact known myself. But if the experience of thousands of sufferers proved definitely that Yadil checks malaria and eventually drives it out of the system, what a glorious day it would be for all the races who live in malarial countries!

W
ITH Yadil there is not the slightest risk of any bad after-effects. It is abso lutely safe. It is entirely of harmless vegetable origin. Its active principle is natural essential oil of garlic, but it never taints the breath or body. It has been used by thousands of medical men throughout the Empire during the last seven years, in malaria, pneumonia, scarlet fever, influenza, cholera, dengue and blackwater fevers, typhus, diarrhoea, dysentery; palosis or sprue, gangrene, infective wounds, sures, for scalds and burns, bronchitis, coughs, colds, dyspepsia, etc. Yadil' destroys within the system all bacterial infection. Once the cause of disease is removed. normal health is promptly restored. It is very simple
