A CLERGYMAN.

Nervous Debility, Influenza, Depression, Nervous Headache-

Most people have desired to know beforehand for certain what will be the result of an undertaking. Imagine the saving in time and money if wo could foresee what would happen! How readers may actually realise the wish is divulged by a clergyman, who writes to us and makes it clear that anyone can confidently foretell accurately and without a shadow of doubt, the beneficial results which follow a course of Phosterine. The Rev. John W. Clayton says that when his nervous energy was at a very low ebb, and he had lost interest in everything owing to nervous debility and Influenza, l'hosferine enabled him to recover his vitality immediately. The mere fact of a popular clergyman expressing such complete confidence in the curative properties of the famous tonic is a convincing proof that Phosterine may be absolutely relied upon to remedy and prevent those nervous disorders for which it is a specific. The Reverend gentleman's opinion is strongly supported by a host of doctors and nurses who warmly urge the use of Phosterine, which, in addition, has the distinction. of being supplied to nearly every royal family in Europea fact that is in itself a guarantee of exceptional efficacy.

Stopped and done with at once.

The Rev. John W. Clayton, 20, Alexandra Terrace, Haslingden, Lancs, writes have been for a long time a user of your Phosferine, and even this winter was saved from an attack of nervous debility by its use i have for many years been subject to Influenza in the early spring and have found the attacks moderated and a great deal of depression and nervous after effects kept away by using Phosferine. This last winter I have had a specially hard time and my nervous energy got at a very low ebb. I lost interest in everything, and when I found I could go on no longer I began with the Pliosferine and was struck with the rapid way in which I recovered, I find it a very useful pick-me-up tonic and we keep it constantly in the house My wife has also used it for a peculiar nervous headache which she occasionally has. The headache ceases at once and in a short time disappears. This much I can say of your remedy without saying a single word that even approaches exaggeration."-July 24, 1904
