Of the men who marry voluntarily, one half marry because they want a housekeeper, the other half, because they want an individual. At about the age of thirty there comes to even the most cynical of men the idea that he wants some-ous of the opposite sex to keep his house in order. It is one of Nature's subtlest soheres to secure sufficient population for the earth's surface, that she has made it in possible for

Thousands of men would remain bachelors for ever, were it not for the fact that each well-conducted house must Lave a kitober, and a kitchen is a thing which no man is born aspable of under standing.

The only right way of getting married in to hate the idea of mareisgo itself, but to marry besause you feel that it would be impossible to go on living without one certain, definite individual. The man who can imagine himself happly married to either one or the other of two women will never have a happy married life, There must be no hesitation no uncertainty. A feeling must exist so strong as to overwhelm every other material consideration that one woman in the world is necessary to the com plation of your being, It is possible to regret the fact that you ever mot such a woman, bat, having mot her, it is not possible to do without her.

Overwrought Nerves-

Over and over again clever and capable people find themselves without a scrap of energy to do the work that is offered them, and this actually was the predicament of a skilled and experienced hospital nurse, who tells us she was so prostrated by nervous exhaustion and overworks, that had it not been for the abundant energy and nerve force she derived from Phosferine, she must have refused a most desirable appointment. Our correspondent states that whenever she feels her work getting "too much" for her she braces up her system with a course of Phosferine: such, an assurance from a trained hospital nurse is practical evidence of the unfailing efficacy of Phosterine in all nervous disorders. There is proot-Absolute proof, from the Royal Families of Europe, proof from great doctors like Dr. Gordon Stables, M.D., C.M., from famous singers like Caruso, athletes so renowned as C. B. Fry and Apollo, proof final and conclusive that whatever nervous disorder they suffered from, Phosferino cured it, however exhausted the system was, Phosfering: norented and increased their energy and vitality.

Cured Outright.

A Hospital Nurse writes: "On several occasions I have derived great benefit front taking Phosferine. The last time after nursing a near relation through a long and trying illness, I was thoroughly exhausted and run down, and the slightest exertion made me painfully tired, but even one bottle of Phosferine worked wonders, the dis- tressing symptoms disappeared, and I can now walk iniles without experiencing any feeling of fatigue or weakness. In other respects I have found Phosferine an excellent tonic and restorative for overwrought nerves, and in any derangement of the nervous system it is a reinedy that I can confidently rely upon to fulfil all that it claims to accomplish. Particularly for the long hours and careful attention that I must necessarily devote to my cases, the best preparation is a course of Phosferine, as in this way I obtain sufficient energy to carry out the most exacting work without feeling any ill effects."-April 29, 1905.
