MARK HAMBOURG TALKS
About the Music Nerve-
THE CHINA MAIL.
A great musician seems to be one big nerve--The Music Nervo which thrills and vibrates to every mood and emotion, and thus the very ardour of genius exhausts the nerve force far more rapidly than is usual with less gifted people. Interviewed recently about this important fact, Mr. Mark Hambourg, the wonderful mastor of the piano, admits that the nervous strain of continuous recitals taxes his energy so heavily that he finds it necessary to replenish his nervous system with a course of Phosfarine. So highly does Mr. Hambourg esteem the recuperative powers of the famous nerve Topic, that he willingly allows us to reproduce his opinion of the invigorating qualities of Phosferine.
And how to safeguard it.
MARK HAMBOURG writes" I consider I have derived consider able benefit from the use of Phosferine and find it to be an excellent pick-me-up after my recitals."-November 3, 1906.
The Royal Example..
Phosferine is used by the Royal Families of Europe which, in plain language, means that every user of Phosferine knows and feels that this famous Tonic is commended by the greatest living Physicians.

SUPERB HORSEMANSHIP.
Lord Mints Stirred to Enths Blasm at Patiala,
Some marvellous feats of horsemanship shown at Patials recently by the Imperial Service Lancers seem to hayo made a deep Impression on the members of the Viso Regal party and the numerous other European guests of the State.
Four squadrons paraded to show what could be dons with well-trained horses under the oxcitement of service conditions. r
The first squadron fo opon order galloped
past until they are almost in front of the Viceroy, and thou in the twinkling of an Bya dinmounted and lay down. Horses that would not lle down voluntarily were- thrown down by a neat combined mova- ment. & fore-foot of the recalcitrant horse. is lifted with one hand while the bead of the horee is twisted round to the same side with the other had, the effect being to. precipitate the weight of the animal, where there is no support to bear it. Olamily done, such a fall might injera a plunging charger, but as executed by the practised sowar the throw brings the horea softly ob to his flanks, and the rider has then only
to keep the animal's head close to "the ground. Lying prong in the grass neither horse nor rider offers an appreciable target i to rifle fire over at but five hundred yards.

It was, disappeared loto the ground also.
Whon every hores lay stretched out and the whole field was silent and motionless, a sbrill whistle blew, and like a flash every Fower rose and stood natride over the body of his horse so as to ba in the saddle with roine in hand at the instant that the animal regained its foot, Ere the sounds of the whistle had died away the entire fores was galloping away, with its back to the Vicaroy, rallying upon ite leador..
A few hundred yards away and with acarcaly a pause the regimant freed up into perfect line, faced about, and charged down upon the Viceroy at a thundering pace until within a couple of hores's lengths of the party of spectators. A thrill went through averyone; it was grand. Lord Minto criod out. Splaadid."
