Yellow Fever in the Army.

1t isn't the number of men that
yellow fever kills that frightens you
but the unexpected suddenness of
its attack, and the rapidity with
which it kills. A man is we'll and

deadly i'll; at p. m. he is dead, and
at s p. m. he is buried, In much
the same manner men will work day
after day in apparent health, and
then will suddenly appear a general
weakness. The body is giving out.
1t needs something to strengthen
it, to drive away the impurities of
the blood, to tone up the stomach,
