From all lands, degutions come to study the methed which bas made the London Constablogerier to all others." "The method by which I make myself equal to my says Constable Lawrence," consists of taking Phosferine at inters, as in this way I keep myself alert-inentally and physically," Singking Phosferine, Constable Lawrence can remain on point" duty all weathers, controlling the amazing volume of City trailic, witholxperiencing the terrible nerve strain and weariness which formerly dissed him. Even amongst men who excel, Constable Lawrence is knoias an exceedingly capable officer, equal to any emergency, and Heclares that Phosicrine alone enables him to maintain himself it's fine condition.

Constable Lawren98, High Road, Tottenham, writes" Possibly there is not an occion more nerve trying than that of a "point-duty". policeman, especiavhen the roads are slippery and the drivers have. a dificulty in hok up their horses. Add to this, the skidding of motor omnibus ant dodging of taxi-cabs, &c., it will be seen that my duty is not a please. I am sure that no one would care to change. places with us for than a few minutes, for it would at once be felt that the dangers o numerous to cope with. Policemen look big, strong nuen, but ant as likely to get run down in health as other men, and this is what aned to me sometime ago, when I suffered from headaches, nerve ¿ssion, lassitude and rheumatic pains. After trying many remedies, 1 recommended Phosferine, and can say that it is a wonderful renewerealth, and seems to put fresh life into one from the first dose. now quite mye f again, and very thankful that Phosferine was bṛt tony notice."-March 5, 1910.

TROPICAL TIMBER.
That comets may arre the astronomer as explorers of unknown space is the conclusion that Prof. Geo. Forbes, F.R.S., finds to have been recently justified. Perturbations of the outer planela caused the existence of nu unknown planet to be suspected for a quarter of a century, and a calculation made-inexact as it proved led to the discovery of Neptune in 1846. Comets may have their orbits obanged by the attraction of unknown bodies or may be accelerated or re-

The assumed position of the hypothetical planet was just right to explain this retarding.

Bo skilfully were the plans worked that the secretoj were actually among the “ fiends" before their intrusion was known. Here they caught the Chinese red handed boiling down the drug in a large kettle, and a thorough search brought to light a fotal of 30 kilos of opium and 19 kilos of morphine, thus making the value of the total capture for the wool just a few pesos short of
