BOVRIL DEFIES DISEASE.

The fact that over 500 British hospitals and kindred public institutions use and prescribe Bovril is sufficient in itself to prove that it fortifies the system ag tinst disease. As rats infest a ditty, unhealthy tenement, so disease will instal itself in a deranged system and take n hold. Bovril shakes the grip when disease is there by making clean, healthy blood; the attack weakens, the microbes'die, and Bovril is triumphant. But do not use Bovril only to expel; rather prepare your system against the attack of disease by using it to invigorate, and create clean and wholesome blood and organs. The result will please you,

BOVRIL is an energising and sustaining beverage, which by its merits has become a household word from one end of the world to the other. Just as the electric light has sur- passed the rushlight of our grandmothers, so Bovril bas surpassed the meat extracts and beef teas of a quarter of a century ago. It is the culmination of scientific achievement in the production of a strengthening, nourishing and vitalising food beverage. In health, Dovril is a shield against the effects of a muggy, humid climate; in weakness, a substitute for regular meals; and in sickness, the right hand of the docter and nurse in their efforts to provide the patient with true nourishing food, readily taken, palatable, and digestible.
