Phostrvine, is evident from Miss Keyiner's admission that the tonir madeal rug to do myself justice." This power to excel, this ability to make tøjert use 61 her skill, depends upon the marvellous control and steadiness the muscle serves Phosferine has ;iven her, and to which she owes the Calrading toe and quality of her music renditions. Naturally, this ne gising effect of Phosforine was accompanied by the disappearance" of the headaches, listlessness, and fatigue, which were the bine of her public appraiances,und it is this happy outcome which impels Miss Keynier to testify to the exceptional advantages to be derived from Phosferine.

Promptly Remedied.

Miss Sybil Keymer," Riversmere," Albany Rd., Leighton Buzzard, Eng., 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 profession I have to travel a good deal in getting to my various concerts, and I find that since using Phosferine I am never troubled with the headaches and listig suess which follow a long railway journey, particularly during bot weather. This is of very great importance to me, as frequently only a very little time capses between reaching my destination and the com mencement of a concert, and it is such a relief to feel fresh and ready for playing in pirblic undisturbed by the latigues of lone mavelling. It is because I fell that Phosforine enables me to do myself justice as a violinist, preventing any of the unsteadiness of the muscle nerves, which is so harmful to lone and quality, that I confidently commend the tonic at every opportunity."-July 11, 1912.

A COMMERCIAL - INVESTMENT.

The Imperator as a commercial invest nsent exniot strictly be taken alone, but must be considered with two other ships of even slightly greater tonnage which are to follow. It is true that the fact of there being three instead of one makes the ven daring, bus still the general Cartitions are much the same. As in the case of all new ships, fanciful reports have bou in circulatio as to the speed of the imperator, but it is generally under stood that she reached 224 knots on trial so that her sa spoed may be put at about 21. Thus it will be seen that there is no attempt to compete with the Mauretanin's 25 knots, and accordingly speed is not held out as the attraction to secure passen- gers. The Imperator relies on her size and luxurious appointinents, and in regard to the latter money has certainly been spent with a free hand and with striking results. But, except perhaps m one trip in each direction in the height of the respective seasons, even new and splendid New York livers do not run with & full complement of passengers at full rates. If they did, the Imperator would be indeed a magnificent investment, and the total revenue from passage whey. mails, and freight would show Astonishing total. Calculated on the

Since the treasure was buried in the eave! in the cliff there have been great slides of rock and earth along the front of the island, and these have completely covered the spot to which the magnetic bearings specified in the clue point. that one could locate exactly the spot intended by the che, there would be months of digging before the cave could be uncovered, and then it might turn out that the clue or its application were wrong, or that the pirates actually hid the treasure at some near-by spot instead of at the point where the meridian and parallel eros

Granting

The women who persuaded Mr. Mills and his fellow capitalists to engage in the expedition do not feel as he does. They are sure that only a little more-work and money are required to uncover the trea- sure cave. They are returning to London intent upon organising another company for the purpose of continuing the search."

seems very satisfactory. If we put the highest gross earnings of a voyage at £70,000 and the lowest at £30,000, and the cost of running at £32,000, the resulting margin yields a handsome return on the capital. Even if we take the net earnings at only £25,000 per voyag during the Beason and 10,000 during the non-season we obtain an average of £17,500 per voyage; and this, with a three-weekly itinerary and the allowance of a mouth for the annual everbaal, gives a margin of over a que rter of a million to meet. say, interest on capital at 5 per cent., £75,000; depreciation at per cent, £90,000; annual overhaul,"£30,000; and administration cliarges. Much, fever, depends on the public reception of the ship; for there is all the difference in the world between a vessel that becomes a popular favourite with the Transatlantic public and one that, for some reason or ather, does not “catch on.”

the what strikes the visitor most is immense size of the public apartments and the almost extravagant luxury of the fittings and appointatcuts. In criticizing the disposition of the public apartaments it is necessary to bear in mind that in the Base of these ver, big ships the dining saloon has degenerated into a mere eating. room and can without injury to placei on a lower dee't where space is of cum- paratively small value, and also that the smoke-room nas lost its great importance, The latter, like the indies' room, is the resort of extremists, men who wish to get away from the ladies, as the members of the opposite sex go to the ladies' root When they want to se enthey tres from Lobacco smoke, The popular resort is die lounge, and hence the space and tavour- able position allotted to it on the topinoss deck but one.
