No more nerves?

Not since I started with SANATOGEN

Nervousness, fatigue, forgetfulness and many other symptoms often hamper the full enjoy. ment of life. You can become fit and healthy again with a course of Sanatogen. Sanatogen contains just those elements which give new health and energy to the run-down organism in a very digestible form. It strength- ens the nerves, renews the red blood cells and this gives new strength and stamina to the whole system.

Pro£ Tobold, # well-known European, authority, wrote:

"Those who are suffering from nerTIKKUR, weakness will soon regain their former. strength and joy of life.” ·.

Try Sanatogen at once. Buy it to-day and wee how quickly Health and Vitality return.

YOU CAN'T DROP A BRICK HERE

(BY AIR MAIL)

Idea of living in a house which had walls just one-eighth of an inch thick does not appeal to you, I suppose. You would have to be careful not to drop a brick...The neighbours might hear

Of course there would be no bricks to drop-If it was like the building I have just seen, writes a special reporter in the Daily Mall Made entirely of steel-walls, doors. roof, cellings, floors.

It stands at Hayes, In Middlesex. A factory in which steel goods will be made. And Sir Harold Bellman got quite a lot of fun out of declaring it open.

If this all-steel building fden spreads (he said) It may revolu- tionise a cherished British custom. This is the art and practice of laying foundation stones And that would seriously curtail our news-reels,

Perhaps there will be some alternative. Maybe they will ask the Mayor in future to lay a foundation rod Oc swing the first plate into position. Then. Instead of presenting him with a dainty rowel you could give him some more suitable emblema spanner..
