THE HÜNGKONG : TELEGRAPH, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1914.
From England to India by Rall. one estimates that it will over In Asia there is a railroad carnita koop. That is one of the project that for a generation has things in Asis. Money seems no mysteries of the way they "do fascinated men. It is the project object. It is the public's money, of a link to tie the railroads of Europe to the railroad of India, anyway, so who cares?
so that the Englishman may
resab his prized possessions of
the Orient without taking so zanch time about it. Of coureo, there are other reasons, but that seems to be the main one. B.. cause of political complications; mainly, the conviction that Rusia would some day certainly grab any railroad that ran toward India and use it for her own purpose, that railroad dream languished. Now it o mes true. About 2,000 miles o' failroad are to be built, to about $200,000,000, No

If Disease Germs were Visible !
What panic-fear would arise if we could see, with the Baked eye, what only the microscope shows is--namely,. the germs which cause such dread infectious diseases as Cholera, Typhoid Fever, Diphtheria, Influenza, Consump tion, and Scarlet Fever.
11
We should see millions of these disease genus floating in the air-lurking in public telephones, in public vehicles, in all crowded, stuffy places-drifting into the mouth and throat, and passing from one person to another.
We constantly inhale these germs without taking hatin, because the healthy body has natural powers of destroying them. But if we are "run down" these powers may fail us. Then the germs grow and multiply. rapidly in the mouth and throat, and lay us low with some. infections disease.
Against these invisible focs, Science has given us a sure defence in Formamint Tablets, which cleanse the" mouth cavity from geriu growths as easily and pleasantly as dirt is removed from the skin,
Avoid Infectious Diseases by Sucking
Wulfing's Formamint,
The Germ-killing Throat Tablet.
The habit of sucking a few of these pafcable tablets every day keeps your mouth and throat in a thoroughly healthy state-protects you against the constant risks of infection and cures auch common germ ailments as Sore Throat, For! Breath, and Mouth Troubles. Send the coupon to day for a Free Booklet which tells you all about Formamini, It fully explains the germ theory of disease, and contains abundant medical and lay evidence of the value of Forniamint.
The Physician-in-Charge of Turkish Hospitals under British Lumpices during the war, 1972-13,, writes: "I would like you to know that during the war in Turkey I had a few of your bottles of
Formamint always in my pocket, and when engaged with, Cholera cases, invariably kept sucking the tablets. Where we had to deal with numbers of Gangrene
cases, and the nurses and other assistants
suffered with septic throats, I invariably made then auck Formamint, and with great benefit. We all aware by them,
and I am personally grateful to you."""
When buying Formamint, specifs Wuling's Formamint that is the only genuina kind. There are many imitations of Formamint, but sone which have the same composition and properties. Waling's Formamint is a new chemical compound, and, as such manufactured be a fully-pro- tected process,
