FOR YOUR VERY GOOD HEALTH!

Alcohol plays an important part in the ordering of health. Everybody knows the Scriptural admonition to "take a Htde wine for thy stomach's sake" and wisely acts upon that principle. Life goes at a greater pace to-day; more than ever must we depend upon a moderate taking of wines and spirits to refresh and hearten us for the daily round ... your doctor will prescribe a regular modicum of alcohol as a physical necessity for most men and women over forty. Not only does it restore nervous energy, but acts as a brain stimulant ... smoothing over the cares and anxieties of life. For the invahd, or convalescent,there will be found much virtue in the excellent tonic-wines such as Buckfast, Wincarnis, Vibrona or Hall's. Then, again, we would particu larly recommend for general use as a pick-me-up and strengthener Warnink's Advocaat, the renowned and skilfully- prepared hqueur composed of the yolks of new-laid eggs and fine brandy.On page 45we have appended a short list of "reminders" with which wives and mothers may success fully play the part of the family doctor ... at least, where the more common complaints ofcolds,chills, etc.,are concerned.
