A CELEBRATED BEAUTY

Head Pains, Gout, Lassitude -

Readers see for themselves that those în á position to`pick and choose....... whether they are Royal Personages, popular celebrities, experienced doctors, nurses, athletes, &c.—without exception whesitatingly select Phosferine as the one certain remedy for all nervous disorders. Al these distinguished people positively attribute their increased energy, efficiency, or prowess, to the revitalising potency of Phosferine, and their opinion is again confirmed by the celebrated beauty, Mrs. Una de Louth, who finds the wonderful tonic imparts such a delightful feeling of youthful vigour, that she can retain her good looks without the least trouble. Mrs. Una de Louth is deeply grateful for the inestimable service Phuslerine rendered her in completely curing gouty head pains, and so effectually dispelling the nervous depression and lassitude which endangered her exceptional beauty, that she has kindly permitted us to pablish her bappy experience of Phosferine for the benefit of other readers.

Mis. Una de Louth (the beautiful and talented Society reciter, aud daughter of a late well known Member of Parliament), writes:-"I have great pleasure in stating that your Plusletine Ías done more for me than all the doctors, for long standing and severe gouty pains in my head. Indeed, I have had instantaneous relief after taking only a few drops of your wonderful world-famed remedy and I would never be without it in the house again on any consideration-I treasure it among my household gods.

I always find Phosferine helps me and invigorates iny system to a wonderful extent, and before acting or reciting have never known it to fail. It is in my opinion a tonic that has marvellous and lasting effect, and all who have tried it agree with me that I do not over- rate it in the least."-8, Lansdowne Sq., Hove, Sussex-Nov.2, 19c8

MILNERS'

The next twelve months will probably be remarkable for their number of notable-con- tenary celebrations, for in literature along --and for the moment we are concerned only with the literary anniversaries of Eng- Land and America-the year 1809 seems to have given birth to more famous men than any other year in the nineteenth century. January begins the series-un the 19th- with the centenary of Edgar Allan Poe's". birth, in view of which Messrs Routledge are preparing a'oer edition of his poetical works in the Muses Library," with auj introdection by Mr J. H. Ingram. The FIRE.

March 31 brings the centonary of Edward Fitz- | Gerald, to be followed on August 6 by the hundredth birthday of his friend Tennyson -one day after the birth of William King- Lake, the historian of the Crimean War, nine days after the birth of John Stuart Blackie and a few weeks before that of Oliver Wende Holmes, bom la Mas-
