A Celebrated Violiniste

Nervous Fatigue, Languor-

The four to excel, the renfidence which ensures her brilliant successes. says the talented violinist, Miss Sybil Kaymer, is entirely due to hear abundance of vigorous nerve force created by Phosferine. How great the numerous distinctions and triumphant career of this accomplished musician are promoted by the brain energy and physical stamina čevelogwal by Phosferine, is evident from Miss Keymer's admission that the te "enabled me to do myself justice. This power to excel, this ability to make perfect use of her skill, depends upon the marvellous control and steadines of the muscle maros Phosferine has given her, and to which she owes the entrancing tone and quality of her musical renditions. Naturally, this energising effect of Phosferine was accompanied by the disappearanc of the beadaches, listlessness, and fatigue, which were the bane of her public appearance, and it is this happy outcome whichimpels Miss Keymer to testify to the exceptional advantages to be derived from Phosfericum.

Promptly Remedied.

Miss Sybie Keymar," Riversmere," Albany Rd., Leighton Buzzard, Eag writes: "I think I should inform you that I have recently derived very great benefit from the use of Phosferine. In the course of my professiona I have to travel a good deal in getting to my various concerts, and 1 iecili that since using Phosferine I am never troubled with the headachestvil listlessurss which follow a long railway journey, particularly during he weather. This is of very great importance to me, as frequently only m very little time elapses between reaching my destination and the etra mencement of a concert, and it is such a relief to feel fresh and ready for playing in public undisturbed by the fatigues of long travelling It is because I feel that Phosferine enables me to do myself justice as violinist, preventing any of the unsteadiness of the muscle serves, whichi is so harmful to tone and quality, that I confidently commend the tone at every opportunity."-July 11, 1912:
