ATHLETES & SELF-CONTROL
"APOLLO"
Even the most famous athletes.confess to experi- encing a slight feeling of nervousness immediately before the commence- ment of a contest. Relating his impression of his tri- umphant encounter with Madrali, at Olympia, on t April 28, 1905, the victor
admits to a sensation of tense expectaner which is almost as distressing as actual physical pain. Seemingly, a man in per- fect training may suffer defeat through a sudden and unaccountable loss of nervous control. It is an open secret that many athletes whose names are house- hold words, take the
pre- caution of keeping their nerves in good trim with a course of the well-known nerve tonic, Phosferine, so that they may be certain no mishap will befall them at a critical moment. Don't let there be any chance of mishap, take Phosferine, and you will find your nerves quite equal to any EFFORT
"APOLLO" THE IDEAL ATHLETE
TELLS BOW TO AVOID WASTED EFFORT "APOLLO" writes:When I teft South America, some six years ago, I had a bad attack of Sciatica, which left me prostrated and totally unfit. An agent of yours in Southport recommended l'horferine, and a few bottles soon put me right' again, since then I have used it for Neuralgia, and found it a real good thing. Over-training and sustained exertion tries one considerably, and for the weariness so induced, Phosferine is the only remedy that quickly pulls nie round, especially hare I found it give relief in the tired feeling, caused by depressing or hot weather A good deal of brain work falls to my share in my journalistic work, and in this. Phosferice has for sobie years been a great friend to me, and whenever I can. I always give it a good word, for it is a remedy tha: has never faded ine "-June 6, 1906.
