Debility, Nervous Exhaustion

Certainly the absolute confidence of eminent doctors is evidence enough") of the exceptional benefits imparted by Phosferine. Even doctors cantot do more to prove their confidence than by using Phosfering to remedy their own disorders, Could any proof be more definite, more convincing than the testimony of John Dodd, D.S.M., Medical Officer in the late South. African War, who says: "After being shot through both lungs I was dangerously reduced, and I attribute it solely 15 Phosferice that I regained my usual health. I have proved the value of Phosferide in brain," nerve, and muscular exhaustion." This brilliant medical officer found Phosferiae particularly serviceable for insuficiency of nerve force, and declares nothing was so suitable in combaling fevers, chills, &c.

John Dodd, D.S.M. (late of the Medical Staff, 5th Imperial Yeomanry, 1st Brigade, South Africa), Ladysmith House, Witton-le-Wear, writes'?: "I have had considerable experience in the use of your invaluable remedy Phosferine, and it has proved particularly serviceable where there exists ficiency of nerve force. This condition, often due to primary weakness, lays the system open to influenza, colds, neuralgia, rheumatism, indigestion, fevers, and in remedying this predisposition I have found nothing so suitable as your preparation. Phosferine invariably goes to the root of the mischief direct. The certainty of its action is moreover an estimable feature. In debility and kindred ailments, caused by a reduced system, it has tuprecedented power, and in my own case I can bear evidence to its exceptional value, and am indeed greatly indebted to its wonder ful restorative properties. During the late war in South Africe, I was- shot through both lungs and pericardium and that reduced me most dangerously; after taking Phosferine tor about two months it brought me back to my usual health. I attribute this solely to the use of Phosferine. I have advised. Phosferine in several cases, and proved its value in brain, narve, and muscular exhaustion,"-March 11, 1910,
