A Celebrated Violiniste

Nervous Fatigue, Languer-

The power to excel, the confidence which ensures her brilliant successes, says the talented violinist, Miss Sybil Keymer, is entirely due to her abundance of vigorous neste force created by Phoslerine. How greatly the numerous distinctions and triumphant career of this accomplished musician are promoted by the brain turgy and physical stamina developed by Phosferine, is evident from Miss Keymer's admission that the tonic nabled me to myself justice." This power to excel, this ability to make heftel use of her skill, depends upon the marvellous control and steadiness of the muscle inrves Phosferine, has given her, and to which she owes the entrancing tone and quality of her musical renditions. Naturally, this energising effect of Phosferin was accompanied by the disappearance. of the headaches, listlessness, and fatigue, which were the bane of her public appearances,and it is this happy outcome which impels Miss Keymer to testify to the exceptional advantages to be derived from Phosferine.

Promptly Remedied.

Miss Sybil Keymar, 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 1 find that since using Phosferine am never troubled with the headaches and listlessness which follow a long railway journey, particularly during hot weather. This is of very great importuice to me, as frequently only a very fittle time elapses between teaching my destination and the com- 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 a violinist, preventing any of the unsteadiness of the muscle nerves, which is so harmful to tone and quality, that I confidently commend the tonic at every opportunity."-July 11, 1912.

Lurd Palmerston asked me how I was going back to London when he had made his speech, and I told him the time of the train. He said: "Well, have your luggage sent to the station, stand in front of the hustings, tell me how many minutes I have left, and you will catch your train." I wrote the speech in the train, and it appeared the following morning.

He might receive instructions to proceed thitler at any time, but in all probability he would not go until after the confer ence, in which case he would attend it.
