Nerve Strain and Exhaustion—
Mr. Henry Farman's marvellous conquest of the air is another of those brilliant triumphs of nerve force and endurance which are made possible by the vitalising potency of Phosferine.
༣་ :
The master minds, the leaders of men, have ever been the foremost to esteem the energising efficacy of Phosferine, but the very importance and difimity of Mr. Farman's historic achievement is the strongest possible proof of the supreme restorative qualities possessed by the greatest of all tonics. Mr. Farman expresses the warmest appreciation for the Permanent staying power and resistance which Phosferine imparted to his nerve system, enabling blm to withstand the severo strain of the un expected risks and hazards of aerial flight.
Mr. Farman puts it on record that the very superabundance of energy imparted by Phosferina makes for exceptional mental and physical alertness, and in his own case, prevents the ill health and effects of exposure, which would so greatly increase the risks of his experiments.
Stopped and entirely prevented.
Mr. Heary Farman, the marvellous "Flying Man" 22, Rue Avenue de la Grande Armee, Paris, writes:-"I am pleased to endorse the merits of Phosferine as a nerve tonic of the highest quality. As an æropianist my nerve system is continually subjected to the severe strain of unexpected risks and hazards, but I have found Phosferine to be a splendid bulwark against all kinds of exhaustion. Your preparation imparts and stimulates a mental alertness and physical energy which has contributed immensely to the success of my serial flights. Even the most careful calculations are apt to be upset by the effects of exposure, but in my case Phosferine has completely fortified me against all such evils. At the present time I am in excellent health and spirits, bot's sleeping and eating well, and this desirable condition is certainly due to Phosferine February 17,909.

MR. CARNEGIE AND NAVAL ARMAMENTS.
A PLEA FOR THE ABOLITIOŇ OF HAVAL WAR,
Mr. Andrew Carnegie last month addressed- the following letter to the editor of The Times
Bir,-Your New York Correspondent advised you by wire of the proceedings of meetings of the Peace Societies of New York and Chicago. which called upon our President to exert his influence for peace, and especially to secure an among the Powers for a speedy arrest of the ruinous competition of armaments now prevailing.

It has avoided bluster and maintained a dignified reserve.
MF, Editor, in sil truth and goberness, it should no longer be permissible for Any two Powers in jealous rivalry to build Dreadnoughts contingent upon what each other may is, thus compelling all other naval Power to follow their ruinous and, in this the 20th century, saddening, example, or to become defenceless.
This is no mere Germasa-British affair. It The New York meeting suggested his inviting is a world-wide sene, and the next step. a conference of the Powers, which I, as president momentous may prove for good or evil, is of the society, approved, but I am bound to say apparently for Britain to take as the inventor that entsegnent travel in kurope has modified and first adopter of the Dreadnought. my views.
