BOVRIL AT THE FRONT.

Bovril has played such a conspicuous 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 Bovril 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 prescribe Bovril, not beef tea, but Bovril.

The reason not far to seek. Bovril 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.
