- Nervous Collapse, Brain Fag,
Neuralgia
For getting things done, making things go, the invigorating stimulus of Phosferine cannot be equalled, says the Rev. A. H. Field. Fully. aware that as a clergyman be is bound to make sure of the accuracy of bis estimation of Phosferine, this gentleman states that, distinct from -other cases, he has verified and tested the efficacy of the tonic himself. It was Phosferine, and Phosferine alone, he says, which raised him from the nervous collapse, remedied the brain-fag and neuralgia which held down bis efforts and arrested his plans over a lengthy period. Since taking Phosferine he is entirely free from nervous distresses, and can put his whole heart and energies into his work, and indeed, such is his activity that he has roused many helpers to his cause. Experience has taught the Rev. A. H. Field that numbers of people do not realise their languor and half-hearted efforts are due to lack of nerve force, and he believes they will quicker appreciate the efficacy of Phosfarine by learning of his own recovery.
Have No Existence Now.
Rev. A. H. Field, 335, Brettenham Road, Walthamstow, writes! "It gives me much pleasure to testify to the beneficial effects of Phosferine in many cases of nervous disorder, where I have advised the use of your tonic.. Some four years ago I myself had a nervous breakdown, and a friend-advised Phosferine. I took his advice, and ! speedily found that I had acted wisely, for the neuralgic pains and the mental weariness soon took flight, and I was thoroughly braced up. Recently some members of my church, at my suggestion, tried the remedy, and were quite satisfied with the beneficial results, I bave advised its use now for nearly four years, and in no case has it yet proved a failure. When one thinks of the great number of so-called nerve remedies, it is satisfactory to find at least one upon which reliance can be placed. I wish your Phosferine every success. When preaching away, I have noticed Phosferine finds a place in the village homes,"

Adhesion also takes place when two previously heated sheets are brought in contact a short time after they have becom cold and brittle. There is no adhesion between. previously unheated pieces of brown gold or of yellow gold, and it is shown that the adhesion cannot be due to electrio or magnetic notion or to welding by heat.
