SANATOGEN

There is one tonic food which has been tested so often and so thoroughly that its beneficial action is recognised as a certainty:- SANATOGEN. Over 24,000 physicians have stated in writing the marvellous results they have obtained with Sanatogen as a nerve and body-strengthening food.

L+

Sanatogen increases the appetite and multiplies the number of red blood corpuscles. It is so easily digested that the weakest stomach can absorb it, and being a food and not a drug, it cannot interfere with the medical treatment you ́are, being given.

Thousands of people "have rounded that dangerous corner of half-health" with the aid of Sanategea. You, too, will recover much more quickly directly you start taking Sanatogen. So start to-day! With Sanatogen you will literally drink in new vitality.

TROOPS READY

The military observers argue that the troops are ready to fight They contend that this generation of warriors is trained and anxious to demonstrate confidence in prowess But the economic experts argue that the front in modern warfare is at home and not where the guns and fighting men are concentrated. They undertake to show that Japan, stil at odds with China and far from getting a return from her huge investment in Manchuria, is not prepared economically to en gage in a test of arms which might well turn out to be the greateet the world has ever seen.

A Japanese official's estimate of the Soviet Union was contained in a statement issued to the Chinese press by Colonel Shibayama, the Japanese military attache in Fei- ping. Among a lot of other things
