A HOSPITAL NURSE

Nervous Disorders, Exhaustion,

Overwrought Nerves-

Over and over again clever and capable people find themselves without a scrap of energy to do the work that is offered them, and this actually was the predicament of a skilled and experienced hospital nurse, who tells us she was so prostrated by nervous exhaustion and overwork, that had it not been for the abundant energy and nerve force she derived from Phosferine, she must have refused a most desirable appointment. Our correspondent states that whenever she feels her work getting 'too much' for her she braces up her system with a course of Phosterine; such an assurance from a trained hospital nurse is practical evidence of the unfailing efficacy of Phosferine in all nervous disorders. There is proof-absolute proof, from the Royal Familles of Europe,, proof from great doctors like Dr. Gordon Stables, M.D., C.M., from lamous singers like Caruso, athletes so renowned as C. B. Fry and Apello, proof final and conclusive that whatever nervous disorder they suffered from, Phosferine cured it, however exhausted the system was, Phosferine vecreated and increased their energy and vitality,

Cured Outright.

A Hospital Nurse writes:-"On several occasions I have derived great bene- At from taking Phosferine. The last time after nursing a sear relation through a long and trying illness, I was thoroughly exhausted and run down, and the slightest exertion made me painfully tired, but even one bottle of Phosterine worked wonders, the distressing symptoms disappeared, and I can now walk miles without experiencing any feeling of fatigue or weakness. In other respects I have found Phosferine an excellent tonic and restorative for over- wrought nerves, and in any derangement of the nervous system it is a remedy that I can confidently rely upon to fulfil all that it claims to accomplish. Particularly for the long hours and careful attention that must necessarily devote to my cases, the best preparation is a course of Phosferine, as in this way I obtain sufficient energy to carry out the most exacting work without feeling any ill effects."--April 29, 1908.

All the floors, indading the kitchen, Widgeon were painted as they were easily washed Woodsock over; the tables were covered with white oilcloth, which swed scouring, so a certain amount of labour was saved. Even wash- ing clothes was not such a task to o dreaded after all, as a washboard, wringer, and a large copper boiler which fitted on the cook stove simplified matters not a Little: It was a "chore" boy's work to Hight the fire in the morning, keep the wood box filled, and provide the house, with water, which had to be hauled in buckets from the arcok.

Spring and suminer are the busiest sea- sons both indoors and cut. In May and June horeds and rattle have to be rounded up, and riders were fraquently dropping in for meals at all hours.
