Sanatogen Offers You
New Strength and Vigor
HOUSANDS write in praise of Sanatogen—
telling of the real help extended—when nervous
systems were exhausted, when illness, over-
work or worry left them tired-out, with digestion
impaired, sleep disturbed, their whole mental and
physical tones lowered.
In testifying to Sanatogen’s beneficent power to
invigorate and build up, John Burroughs, the distin-
guished naturalist, writes that his sleep is fifty per cent,
better and mind and strength much improved ; while
the Hon. Wm. E. Chandler, former Secretary of the
Navy, found Sanatogen of great value for impaired
digestion—strengthening without irritating and promot-
ing vitality in feeble folks.
Over 1 8,000 physicians have endorsed and approved
Sanatogen in writing and in print over their own signa-
tures. They have watched its splendid nerve-revitalizing
effects, its power to build up the blood and regenerate
digestion, promoting strength and endurance in anemic
and run-down people—men, women and children.
And remember that Sanatogen is a natural, real food
tonic, composed of the very substances that your blood
and tissues crave when you are tired and exhausted.
Is Sanatogen what you need in your fight for better
health ?
Write for a Free copy of “Nerve Health Regained.”
If you wish to learn more about Sanatogen
before you use it, write for a free copy of this
booklet, beautifully illustrated and comprising
facts and information of the greatest interest.
Sanatogen is sold by good druggists
everywhere, in three sizes, from $1.00

A SELF-PORTRAIT OF G. F. WATTS
George Frederic Watts—The Annals
of an Artist’s Life. By M. S. Watts.
(Hodder & Stoughton. London, George
H. Doran Company, New York.) 3
vols. $10.00.
A great and lovable man passed way
with George Frederic Watts and the first
authoritative and complete account of the
famous English painter appeared last
Christmas, written by his widow and pub-
lished by the G. H. Doran Company, in
three stately volumes, profusely illustrated.
Truth to tell, the volumes are, apart from
the art messages contained, wholly without
vital interest, and remind one of nothing so
much as “Sandford and Merton” or those
goodly books by Smiles which used to
reward successful scholars at the close of
each school term, but which were seldom
or never read. The reason for this all-
pervading dullness is not far to seek.
Watts lived on a high spiritual plane,
dreaming his dreams and thinking his
thoughts in an atmosphere which few can
aspire to or breathe with comfort. His
friends had to meet him on this plane or
stay away, and it is pleasant to reflect that
he had many and distinguished friends
who breathed this rarefied air to the end,
but the doings at Little Holland House and
elsewhere were pre-eminently dull to read
about. They furnished absolutely noth-
ing in the way of incident or anecdote.
It may be claimed that ordinary me-
moirs of men like Lord Rossmore or Mr.
Weedon Grossmith are too near the frivo-
lous mark to be recorded in connection
with good literature, but at least they
divert and provoke laughter. Very few
people can remain at concert pitch of good-
ness at all times; five minutes with Satan
affords more entertainment than a month
of St. Francis. Mrs. Watts, in her admira-
tion of her gifted husband and his coterie
of friends, enumerates the most trivial
action, the slightest word, and all without
a trace of humor, as though they were
matters of supremest importance and in-
terest. The melancholy dryness of these
three volumes almost amounts to a tragedy
in letters. Yet how different it might have
been! Conceive a man in the heydey of
his youth, handsome as a god, with bril-
liant gifts of intellect, cast into the best
and most exclusive society of the day. He
was taken up by the British minister at
Florence and lived with Lord and Lady
Holland for several years, meeting every
one of note who visited Europe or London.
What choice plums his biographer might
be expected to yield, but alas, Dis aliter
visum.
