INTIMATIONS
A Lãy Preacher
Brain Fag, Nervous Exhaustion-
Just a change of opinion was enough to give Mr. W. King his present prosperity, for he realised in the nick of time that his way was not curing. his brain fag and nervous exhaustion, so he tried the Phosferine way. Mr. Kingis method was to ignore his despondency and feeling of collapse, and persuade himself there was nothing unusual in the painful fatigue the lightest effort to work cost him, until, as he steadily got worse, be solved to drop his own opinion and see what Phosferine could do. The rest was so astonishingly beneficial, even after a few doses, that a brain fag and nervous exhaustion ceased entirely, enabling him to do more work than Selcre and yet not feel the strain. This remarkable advantage is seen in the extraordinary energy and vigour of Mr. King's public speaking, and so amazingly have his prospects improved since His speedy recovery, that he declares he had to coure forward with the evidence of the magnificent benefit he derived from Phosferine.
Quite Gone-Never Return.
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 who have found Phosferine to be the Greatest of all Tonics. Some time back I was very much run down through overstrain brought on by incessact bodily exercise and mental application. The usual tendency of mankind is to give up some of their work, have a rest, and at the same time take medicine, so I endeavoured to keep going on without seeking advice, But as I was getting worst I found that policy would not do. Having heard many friends speak about Phasferine, and one is particular offering me same. I decided to give it a trial. Purchasing a 2/6 bottle, I began to 20cter myself. The result not only astonished me, but others also noticed Low much better 1 was even although I had only taken a fru doses. found I could do the same amount of work easier, and at present am able to do more than before and yet not feel the strain, I have a good deal of public speaking, and I find an occasional dose of Phosferine is a great benefit May 28, 1912.
