The Imperial Mar chant Service Guild is an institution under the highest auspices, which has for its first and greatest care the sealous watching of their interests.
Land Muskerry, in formally opening the building, said: Since the foundation of the guild its principal aim has been to secure the safety of life at sea. It is remarkable that the opening of this institution, in the contre of the world's trade, should almost synchronise with one of the most terribly maritime disasters known to history. In my opinion all the lives on the Titanic |might have"-burn-eared bad-proper pre- cautions been adapted. Mr Buxton, Freni. dent of the Board of Trade, in connection with that disaster, has beọn most. unjustly islamed. The blame should not be put upon the President of the Board of Trade. He naturally has to depend largely on | subordinates who are permanent officials.
For years this guild has been urging legislation. For years we have endeavour- ed to prevent ships from going to sa with ipsufficient ballant. For years we have the Atlantic event ship's from crossing dangerous caros for

We have been mat by the bitterest opposition, not from the President of the' Board of Trade, but from the head of the Marine Department. It takes a lot to rouss the British public: but now it is gar und I hope that, aax result of the forth- coming inquiry, there will be investigation into the methods of the Marine Depart ment of the Board of Trade, and I hope that the public will insist on reform, and see to it that, whoever is at the head of that department shall be a man of pro fessional knowledge.

In firm, clear handwriting, Miss Mason records the restoration of her appetite and the renewal of healthy action In the bodily functions, thus proving how effectively Phosferine reinforce her vitality, and revived the nervous activities of the hardening and ageing. tissues. Such commanding evidence of the power of Phosferine to arouse and infuse vitality into systems too old and too weak to help themselves, is convincing proof, that younger people will benefit even more rapidly and extensively from the energising influence of Phoslerine.
Most Successfully Overcome.
Miss A. L. Mason, Albert Villa, Park Road, Clevedon, Eng, writes - "I am pleased to tell you Phosferine has been a most valuable medicine to me, for more than ten years. I was in a very low condition some time ago, and suffered greatly from insomnia and sciatica; the latter, I am glad to say, is now quite gone, and I sleep fairly well. Phosferine has quite restored my appetite, but I do not expect much greater strength at 70 years of age. I take as much exercise as I can possibly manage, the chief weakness being in my back and legs, but Phosferine always relieves me. Phosfèrine has been life to me.
