A MATRON of the Y.W.C.A. HOME

Neuritis, Lassitude, Neuralgia→

Almost everyone has known that feeling of relief and thankfulness when they have found someone who could be 'dispended upon without doubs or disappointment, whose word can be accepted unquestionably-well that is what the writers of these letters are, men and women who are to be defended upon. A wide and practical experience makes sach statements, for instance, as those of Miss Morris, who is matron of a Young Woman's Christian Association Home, worthy of the closest attention, for, knowing how greatly wirls and young women workers suffer from Neuritis (nervous exhaustion), she positively affirms that Phosferine may be absolutely "depended upon to speedily dispel the disorder, and restore the flagging health.

Quite Gone.

THE CHINA MAIL.

Miss I. M. Morris, Matron, Y.W.C.A. Home, z, Poplar Walk, Croydon, writes: There is nothing in my estimation approaches Phosferine as an unfailing restorer of flagging health. In my experience I have found it so. real a help that I cannot tell yon half the good it has done, nor the number of young lives it has brightened, that had previously bean subject to these orrible nerve complaints Neuritis and Neurasthenia The personal benefit I obtained from its use in these distressing affections was surpris ing, and now I always have a 4/6 bottle handy, as amongst so many bard working girls (our boarders being mostly clerks and teachers) it is a boon to know of something that will quickly restore vitality and give back to the pain-racked workers renewed energy and efficiency, which is so essential to their success in business life. In cases of Neuralgia and Nervous Break- down' hivo found it equally useful, and in my opinion it stands oivalled- as a relable restorative" -Janúary 30, 1908.
