First, grip is no trifle Its after
effects are often very serious.
Second, grip is particularly bal

The best thing you can do is to
build yourself up with Vinol, our
delicious cod liver and iron prepar-

GOLD BOARDING IN INDIA.

Attention has lately been directed to the unusual absorp
ton of gold by India says Mining Science TO the well post
ed mind this that the metal is very largely taken from
commerce. for known that the natives have passion for
boarding the precious metals This has been the with
silver and it may be with gold.
Whether not the boarding Of large part of the new
supplies Of gold to be regarded for alarm may be
considered from opposite points of The absorption Of
gold by India emphasized by George Roberts, director Of
the mint elaborate discussion of the gold question which
appears in his annual report for 1911 just published The
director apparently regards gold boarding by the oriental
tons fortunate balance against the possible disturbing

1900 to 1910 inclusive the worlds production Of the yellow
metal approximately 81 037 100000 and of this amount
Mr. Roberts estimates 100000 or more than 10 per cent
taken by india In addition to this $1460000O0 went to
Egypt while $958000O0 represented commercial consump
These three ITEMS then represent nearly 80 cent Of
the worlds production of gold The director remarks that
economists who dwell upon the effect of the gold supply
commodity prices do not give adequate consideration to
amounts of gold that enter into monetary circulation
Though after stating the facts he careful not to insist
upon any conclusions There is the other hand the
present probability that with the growth of banking systems

Mr. Roberts discussion presents several interesting points
but specially struck with quotation from Prof Stan
ley Jevons written 1865 with which he concludes his
marks Prof Jevons says:

metals 1t has saved us from commercial revolution and

been preserved by the expectation of silver India from be-
