IT is with the greatest pleasure that I write to testify to the benefits I have received by takdug Phosferino during my training for the 1931, Malayan Weight- Listing Championships.

As I had to reduce some seven or eight pounds off my normal bodyweight in order to enable me to compete in the o-stone class, I had to go into very strenuous training. and with the help of Phosterine, 1 not only won the championship of that clase, but also the Individual Championship, and, in addition I broke a British Record.

therefore have no hesitation in recommending Phosferine to any physical culturist or athlete, whether he be in ordinary training or preparing for a competition, as it
