THE CHINA MAIL
A City Constable
Nervous Depression,
Lassitude, Rheumatism
From all lands deputations come to study the method which has made the London Constable superior to all others.. "The withod by which I make myself equal to my work," says Constable Lawrence, consists of taking Phosferine at intervals, as in this way I keep myself alert mentally and physically. Since taking Phosferine. Constable Lawrence can remain on "point" duty all weathers, controlling the amazing volume of City traffic, without experiencing the terrible nerve strain and weariness which formerly distressed hira. Even amongst men who excel, Constable. Lawrence is known as an exceedingly capable officer, equal to any emergency, and he declares that Phostarine alone enables him to maintain himself in this fine condition.
Quite removed.
Constable Lawrence, 398, High Road, Tottenham, writes: Fossibly there is not an occupation more nerve trying than that of a point-duty policeman, especially when the roads are slippery and the drivers have difficulty in bolding up their horses. Add to this, the skidding of motor omnious and the dodging of taxi-cabs, &c., it will be seen that my *duty is not a pleasant one. I am sure that no one would care to change places with us for more than a few minutes, for it would at once.be falt that the dangers are too numerous to cope with. Policemen look big, strong men, but are just as likely to get run down in health as other men, and this is what happened to me sometime ago, when I suffered from headaches, perve-depression, lassitude and rheumatic pains. After trying many remedies, I was recommended Phosferine, and can say that it is a- wonderful renewer of health, and seems to put fresh life into one from the first dose. I am dow quite myself again, and very thankful that - Phosferice was brought to my notice.”—March 5, 1910,
