I'm taking Sanatogen
"I have found Sanatogen really marvellinis. Under the trying conditions one has to live in this country, Sanatog is a boon to those who are run-down,"
writes Mr. F.D. BH, Motihari, Dr. India.
Weakness, Katlessness and fatigue will soon dis appear after a short course of Sanatogen. Thousands and thousands of grateful Sanatogen users know from experience, the wonderful and strength giving qualities of this famous food tonic. And, they, therefore, take Sanatogen regularly for a few weeks rwo or three times a year.
'A building-up frocess goes on in the nerves after the use of Sanatogen,"

THE SIMPLER THE RULE
There are, alasi and always will be, individuals who will try to And their way round, the rules of "Is it possible that some of the any game, to thel momentary English side do not know the laws benefit but it does seem feasible of the game? If so, the sooner to say that the simpler any rule they are educated the better for is. the harder it 13 to break it. almost half the penalties awarded and, correspondingly, the harder it in this game were given in a is to find a way round it. part of the field where a good and lucky kick might have turned England's victory into defeat. If you can shed any light on this matter I, for one, shall be greatly obliged to you.".
It is not an easy question to answer, for only the referee can have known exactly what offence he was penalising at any moment. It did appear, however, from a close scrutiny, that Law 15 was the chief bone of contention, that law which covers the putting of the ball into the scrummage, and the means used to secure or "hook" it after it has so entered.
We are told that certain re- visions or additions are to be forthcoming this March. It seems В pity that these scrummage lawS cannot also be amended, chiefly in the matter of clarifica- tion and curtailment,
COLD PRINT AND HOT BLOOD
In cold blood, and in print, the code may appear admirable, even Indeed up to the point when two stationary scrums are being in- structed. but in the heat and the movement, and, most important of all, the heave and swing of two strong packs locked in almost mortal combat, surely it is asking THE REFEREE'S ANGLE a little too much of the scrum- First, then, we must deal with half to find the exact line "mid- the referee's angle of these nowa- way between, and paralled to, the daya somewhat complicated per- lines of feet of the opposing frunt formances.

the first three feet of the front row forwards of each team, on the side on which the ball is being put in, shall be raised, or advanced beyond the line of feet of the front row forwards until the ball has passed that foot."
How is he going to work all that out for himself, with 70,000 people yelling and screaming all round So far, so good. But is it right him, and with a man in front of to suppose that these eight, men him apparently trying to shove advanced on to the field with him right off the earth?
