Tell me. what is Johann Hoff's Ex-
tract?"
Here read what Prof. Petra Santa
of Paris writes about it, and it is true
in every particular.
Prof. Pietra Santa in his work on
Pulmonary Diseases writes as follows;
"For several years Johann Hoff
has manufactured liquid Malt Ex-
tract, which the medical profession
have used with beneficial results, be-
cause of its great dietetic properties.
This Malt Extract has remarkable
nutritious action, both tonic and in
MIGRATING, and has proved to be of
great value in chronic diseases pro-
ducing contractions of the muscles of
the digestive organs. AS an aid to
digestion it is wonderful in building
up lost power. The renowned prac-
titioners of Paris-Blache, Gueveau de
MISSY, Pideux. Fauvel. Empis, Danet,
Robert de Latour, Bouchet, Piorry
and Tardieu-highly recommend this
pleasant remedy in restoring weak
ened digestion. My personal expert
ence leads me to confirm the praise
which Prof. Leveau expresses in the
following words: AS large number
of patients lack the necessary power
to digest solid food, and would. through
the use of stimulants. be merely ex-
cited and weakened, therefore regard
it of immense value to the practitioner
to bring to his aid a nutritious tonic
and remedy like the Johann Hoff s
Malt Extract, which will act not only
as a tonic but as a nutrient as well,
and which is less exciting than wine

Referring to Majuba hill. Lord Rose

"This Ia no little war. There are ma.

catastrophe and disaster that may over

conditions is no little war;

reliability as newspaper.
To give the details, Grnmpley Groat
the antiquarian editor. had gone into
the country to give his nerves a rest.
The ceiling had suddenly appeared
to Grumptly to be falling, and the
clock had stood giddily upon one cor
ncr and two chairs had appeared
where there was but one. You see, he
needed a vacation.
Then Walkerton. the night editor,
bad suffered the loss of a relative
somewhere, and had gone off to attend
the obsequies. This put Budlong
Green up few notches temporarily,
and swelled his head.

assignment out of town only that
morning, and had not heard OF
Grumpley's illness. He wanted
Groat to help him out.
Every man on the paper wanted
Groat to do the same thing at times,
and that was the difficulty with Greats

Groat had prepared during the inciPi-

death notice for Grumpley Groat. and
1t was printed.
There was but little surprise

Grumpley had gone away very sick
