The Telefunken apstom is asking its appearance. in Great Britain ander the Auspices of Messrs. Siemens Brothers &
Company, Limited, the eminent o'ectrient engineers. The result will be interesting follow. So far as this country is con cerned it would appear as though the Mar- enni systém had become too firmly en- trenched both in public, commercial, and Government eyes, to enable the Coron invention to secure a hold, but in the colonies there promises to be a títurie struggle between the two interests for supremacy
This invention is a combination of really four systems, which riginally were ex- plsited by two different companies. The one was knowna-the Braun-Siemens, and the other as the Sahy-Arco, method.

Nervous Breakdown, Paralysis- The muster force which conquered the most perilous afflictions and embled him to codare amazing hardships, says Captain Henderson, is deriusd entirely from Phosferine. Exposed by his adventurous life to an extraordinary series of misfortunes, from being disabled in action, to sunstroke, enteric fever, and paralysis of the legs, this gallaut officer was ret able, entirely owing to the aid of Phesferine, to leave the hospital and fight through to the end of the Boer War! Under blows which make men reel and fall. Captain Henderson was so upheld by the vitalising and bracing qualities of Phosferine, that actually on his return, home he wis robust and vigorous enough to win four military prizes in one day, including the famous Victoria Cross Cup!
Cured with Signal Success.
Captain D. E. Henderson, 1, Mando Avenue, Clontarf, Dublin, writes :- "During the late Boer War, I had a severe shock from lighting, and an injury to the spine through my horse being killed in action and rolling on top of nie. In India, some years previously, I had any attack of sun- stroke, and was five months in hospital with Enteric Fever. These troubles told upon me, and ultimately resulted in a complete nervous breakdown when in Pretoria. I was admitted to hospital when I had lost the use of my legs. I was treated for neuritis and sent out only partly cured, and then started taking Phosferine systematically and regularly. The benefit received was marvellous; in two months time I was back in the field and fought right through until the end of the war. Owing to a great financial loss, which preyed on my mind, I had a second break- down, and the do tor told me that I would probably be paralysed for life. I thought again of Phosferine, and after using it about three weeks my strength gradually returned and the frightful depression and weakness left me. The proof of which is that, in the military sports, I won four prizes in" "one day, including the Victoria Cross cup."—July 14, 1911.
