But the point to be appreciated is this that the divisions which have been fighting with such akili and gallantry in Belgium and France are not, as in 1914, a thing apart from the rest of the nation- al army. They represent a typical cross-section of it.

FOR

DENGUE

AT the first signs of the dreaded Dengue don't

procrastinate

Take two to three ‘ASPRO' tablets every two hours until the Fever abates and the pain ceases. 'ASPRO' is the greatest Fever Antidote ever given to the world. No other medicine has its antipyretic, anti-periodic and anti- germicidal propensities after ingestion in the system. ASPRO' is far more effective than quinine and there are no harmful after effects. Make certain that 'ASPRO' is always in the home ready for any emergency.
