Nervous Depression, Neuralgia,
Sleeplessness-
A cheerful, bright way of looking at things, a brisk activity which easily enables her to do almost as much as two ordinary persons, ara some of the immediate benefits Mrs. Parker derived from Phosferine. Like most bard-working mothers, Mrs. J'arker.never found time to look after herself, and, as is always the case, suddenly broke down under the strain of endless household activities. Sudden noises caused her to tremble in feeble distress, gloomy fears assailed her, neuralgia and sleeplessness. tortured her nerves relentlessly, and it was from this depth of misery that Phosferine raised Mts. Parker. That this immediate effect was achieved by two doses al Phosferice, and Mrs. Parker's cure madi permaxeni by a continuance of the tonic, demonstrates chat with the aid of Phosterine any husband can save his wife from innumerable distresses!

stanchion then they climbed up the ind der to the boat above.
"We would have got the gold," mur- ured the ancient diver," but it was ther sand that drove us off. It used to com down in clouds, it smothered us in bil- lows, nearly killed every man who went down.". His voice drawled off into )
low tone as if he were speaking to him. self. His audience had to wait till be rame back to the twentieth century, and he came like a man who has lived ut the bottom of the sea for a lifetime.
There were three divers in those days, who descended and returned to the sur face by the Jacob's ladder tied to the sub- morged cannon. The remains of th Anndbank on which the Lutine grounded were still to be seen in clear weather by the divery, though it has now disappear. ed and all the men who went town with the frigate a hundred years ago had not sorted her. One diver who landed on the ship's side clambered over her poop dock and so on to a lower one, squeezing himself between the loose last nord tim bers. And as he reached the lower be had died with the Lutine. . . . The diver saw the white bony band of a man who lambered back. A skull trundled along the planks. A few fish shot past. Some shing tripped him up, mid over the side of the Eutine be,went, bumping into the sand that banked round the stern of the wreck. He was hauled up by his life- ino to the fresh air shove, and another man went down to take his place.
"YOU'VE GOT TUE GOLD." When diver Baillie, the man claims to have found the gold bar re- rently, went ashore the other night he was met by Christian, who was strangely exeited. He made Baillie explain where he had senrebed, how big the hole was in which he had plunged his arm, and how
beams were lying. When he had- heard it all the old Dutchman sighed and put his hands on Baillie's shoulders.

Mrs. A. Parker, 3, Linden Grove, Nurhead, writes"I got into a fearfully low nervous state through working too hard and overtaxing my strength. Any loud noise or a sharp knock at the door would throw me into a state of trembling and helplessness. I was always imagining all kinds of evils, and worrying about trifles. Neuralgia racked me with. pain day and night, and prevented me from obtaining any rest. I got so worn and dejected that I could have cried, out of sheer misery. My husband persuaded me at last to take some Phosterine, and the effect was simply marvellous; the pains not only ceased, but I have had no return since. It seemed more like magic than anything else that afew drops of Phosferine could produce such a change. I kept on with it, and I began to gain strength; the neuralgia disappeared for good, the nervousness, dejection, and worry left me, and now I feel quite well."-Nov. 17, 1911.
