Research has demonstrated that the germs of Influenza, Catarrh, Sore Throat Cerebro-Spinal Meningitis; etc., find a lodgment m the mucous membrane of the nose and throat, and are alfterwards absorbed into the system. If these germs are brought into contact with Nazol, which is a powerful germicide and antiseptic, in the early rtages of the attack, their power of injury are to a great extent broken and destroyed Thousands have proved the truth of this statement • A correspondent, writing in tho Manawatu Standard, says : I see tliere are some cases of diphtheria in Palmerston North. Some time ago a doctor told me that this dread complaint may easily bo a\erted if, as soon as the throat becomes at all rough or sore, the sufferer would eat half' a teaspoonful of flour of sulphur. It kills all germs, and I have proved its efficacy. i For Children's Hacking Cough, Woods' Great Peppermint Cure.* j The signatures to the Anty-German League (Hawke's Bay branch) now number nearly 1600. . To destroy the germs of Influenza,Catarrh, Sure Throats, or other infectious germs which find a lodgment in the mucous membrane of the nose and throat, Nazol should be used.

The French "Poilu" can stand up against any "Boche" in the trenches, but there's another enemy smaller, and to him more detestable that he can't tolerate. He simply can't stand the rats. The trenchea are just the things rats love to burrow in. In the trenches the sanitary conditions are poor, the dead are hurriedly buried in shallow graves, and all sorts of refuse is strewn about. It is natural that rats in great*fi.umbera have been drawn into the trenches. The danger of infection from the bites of these rodents* is very great, and the medical authorities on the front have been seriously considering the problem. They hftve been compelled to offer rewards to "Monsieur Poilu" for every rat he can kill in the trendies. The men accordingly spend their spare time in the trenches chasing the rats, digging them out of their improvised holes with bayonets and running them down. Dogs are also recruited in this part of service in the trenches. Rat terriers are being rushed in trainloads to be put in the trenches.
