THE ELEPHANT'S TRUNK.

Brain Fag, Nervous Exhaustion-

Just a change of opinion was enough to give Me. W. King his present prosperity, for he realised in the nick of time that kis way was at curing his brain fag and nervous exhaustion, so he tried the Phosfering way.. Mr. King's method was to ignore his despondency and-feeling of collapss, and persuade himself there was nothing unusual in the paleful fatigue- the lightest effort to work cost him, until, as he steadily got worse, he resolved to drop his own opinion and see what Phosferine could do. The result was so astonishingly beneficial, even after a few doses, that the brain lag and nervous exhaustion ceased entirely, enabling him to do mere work than before 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 come forward with the svidence 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 bave found Phosferiae to be the Greatest of all Tanies. Some time back I was very much run down through overstrain brought on by incessant 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, dat 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 3/6 bottle, I began to doctor myself. The result not only astonished me, but others also noticed how much better I was, even although I bad only taken a few doses. I 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

When such authorities as Mr. Rudyard Kipling and Profesor A. S. Woodward disagree on such question as the origin of the elephant's trunk, who is to solve so ticklish a zoological problem?

Long ago, Mr. Kipling, in the Bfth of the Just So Stories," told on how the olephant's child—who once had a "bulgy Bose as big as a boct"-went, **full of 'satiablo curiosity," to ask the crocodile in the Limpopo River what he had for dine nor. And the crocodila told the elephant | stoop down, and then solzed his nose be- tween thoas terrible java, and pulled The Elepdon-Rock-Saske, pulled too, and so hard that when the crocodilo let go, his į

bulgy nose" had been stretched into a trunk.

So much for the romancist; the man of science tolla quite another story.

Elephants, according to Professor Wood" ward's lecture at the Royal Institution recently, wore orginally little 'reaturas which, for some reason or other, were sun-

coded by creatures in which the legs-wers- growing longer and longer, hits the neck romained the sxina length, or, in fact, got shorter. They could not reach the ground without lengthening the jaw; the growth continued, and they were going rapidly to.... wards a mechanically impossible position. Eventually they bad to increase the length of their face enormously.

The elephants Prolomor. Woodward added, only saved thair carver by shorten- isg up the mandible, and survived solely because the long face took on д дор function, and became the mechanism by which they were able to feed.com
