Grateful Wife
Maternity Weakness,
Rheumatic Fever, Depression-
Just sitting still and thinking everything possible has been done, does not suit Mrs. Wilson, for all the usual ways failing to restore her husband's health, she tried the Royal way the Phosferine way. The benefit was Immediate, for all the depression and weakness of rheumatic fever, which change of air, diet, and friends had failed to relieve, diminished with every dose of Phosferine. This triumphant outcome of Mrs. Wilson's devoted vigilance is typical of the exceptional efficacy of Phosferine, but of still deeper importance is her assurance that before, during, and after child- birth she herself derived such an access of strength and vitality from Phosferine, that weakness, lassitude, or distress was not in my way experienced.
Decidedly Abolished.
Mrs. E. Wilson, 41, Bedford Road., Grays, Essex, writes My husband started aking Phosferine after a severe bout of rheumatic fever, and although he went away to the seaside for change of air failed to make any headway. He wrote complaining of always feeling tired. and despondent, and doubtful as to whether he would ever be able to resume his business. I sent him a 2/9 botile of Phosferine, and after a few doses, he felt a great deal of difference, and before his supply was finished was quite himself again and ready and able to do a hard day's work with anyone. I am also very grateful for the good Phosferine has done me in maternity weakness; before my child was born I took it regularly. and it strengthened me wonderfully, the subsequent tax upon my constitution was not half so great as one would naturally expect. am certain Phosferine taken by mothers is a great, belp both before and after child-birth, as it supplies just the strength needful at this time, and moreover, imparts strength and stamina to both, and I assure you I am very proud of my beautiful baby girl."-February 8, zgło

·THE DIGNITY OF MOURNING.
When we allow our clothes to express our emotions they invariably attain a dignity they never reach so long as they are merely fashions. The use of the train and the veil, for instance, is a case in point. For the deepest mourning these are essential. Their long, flowing lino are mest expressive and most beautiful. Anyone who saw Queen Mary when she went to meet the Empress Marie must have been struck by the effect of the long veil, the fowlog cape, and the long train. Ons of the finest modern pieces of scalpture we hare, Les Deux Douleurs," in the Luxembourg, depends on this use of line and veil for its marvellous effect of Borrow.
