among scientifically condensed foods is Bovril. In the smallest possible bulk Bovril has every virtue a true food should possess-it is nourishing and strengthening-it is a stimulant and a warmth-giver; and, besides being very appetising, is thoroughly digestible. Bovril is a great help to the cook, too.
