Mr. W. J. King, School House, Trumpington Road, Forest Gate, E writes: I am writing to add my name to the list of those people whar have found Phosferine to be the Greatest of all Tonics. Some time back I was very much run down through overstrain brought on by incessant bodily exercise and mental application. The usual tendency of mankiad is to give up some of their work, have a rest, and at the same time taka- medicine, so I endeavoured to keep going on without sucking advice, but as I was getting worse I found that policy would not do. Having heard many friends speak about Phosferine, and one in particular offering me some. I decided to give it a trial. Purchasing a 2/5 bottle, I began to doctor myself. The result not only astonished me, but others also noticed how much better I was, even although had only taken a few doses. 1 found I could do the same dimost of work easier, and at present am able to do more than before and yet not feel the strain. I bave a good deal of public speaking, and I find an occasional dose of Phosferine is a great benefit"-May 28, 1912.
