A Lay Preacher
Brain Fag, Nervous Exhaustion-
THE HONGKONG DAILY PRESS, SATURDAY, APRIL 12TH, 1918.
Just a change of opinion was enough to give Mr. W. King his present prosperity, for he realised in the nick of tine that his way was not curing his brain fag and nervous exhaustion, so he tried the Plosferine way.. My King's method was to igitore his despondency and feeling of collapse, and pórsuade himself there was nothing unusual in the rainful fatigue. the lightest effort to work cost him, until, as he steadily got worse, he resolved to drop his own opinion and see what Phosferine could do. The result was so astonishingly beneficial, even after a few doses, that the brain fag and nervous exhaustion car sed entirely, enabling him to do more work than before and yet not feel the strain. This remarkable - advantage is seen in the extraordinary energy and vigour of Mr. King's public speaking, and so amazingly have his prospects improved since his speedy recovery, that he declares he had to come forward with the evidence of the magnificent benefit he derived from Phosferine,
Quite Gone-Never Return.
Mr. W. King, School House, Trumpington Rd., Forest Gate, London, E, writes I am writing to add my name to the list of those people who have found Phosferide to be the Greatest of all Tonics. Some time back I was very much run down through overstrain brought on by incessant bodily exercise and mental application. The usual tendency of mankind is to give up some of their work, have a rest, and at the same time take medicine, so I endeavoured to keep going on without sucking advice, but as I was getting worss 1 found that policy would not do. Having heard many friends speak about Phosferine, and che in particular offering me some, I decided to give it a trial. Purchasing a 2/6 bottle, I began to doctor myself. The result not only astonished me, but others also noticed how much better I was, even although I had only taken a few doses, I found I could do the same amount of work easier, and at present an able to do more than before and yet not feel the strain. E have a good deal of public speaking, and I find an occasional dose of Phosferice Is a great bundfit, May 28, 1912.
