BOVRIL AT THE FRONT.

Bovril has played such a cunspicuous part: in South Africa that it forms no inconsiderable feature of the story. The "Lancet has had frequent references to Bovril in the reports of

the officers of the Royal Army Medical Corps. Nearly every newspaper correspondent has had to refer to Bord to make his story complete. Rudyard Kipling and Baden-Powell have written their Bovril stories. Over 50 British 'hospitals and similar public institutions use and prescribo Bovril, not beef tea, but Bovril,

The reason is not laro seck. Borrit is a nourisher as well as a stimulant. It contains the albumen and fibrine, the sustaining properties of the beer. It is this fact, together with its absolute purity, that commends Bovril to physicians and scientists, and proves in practice what it demonstrates in analysis,
