THE FOLLOWING FORMULÆ ARE INVALUABLE FOR NERVOUS DISEASES :— THE COMPOUND PHOSPHORUS PILLS, No. 9. THE PHOSPHORUS IN THESE PILLS COMBINED WITH QUININE, IRON, AND STRYCHINA, THE MOST POWERFUL NERVE TONICS KNOWN. Dr. KIRBY, in his work "On the Value of Phosphorus," says: "It is impossible to conceive any medicine more perfectly adapted for the Cure of Loss of Nerve Power and for the Restoration of Mental and Physical Vigour than these Pills, containing as they do the inorganic ailments —food— absolutely necessary for healthy blood formation, without which there can be no Repair of Nerve Tissue." Every part of the organism is constantly undergoing physiological decay and repair. When the balance is lost by excessive activity of function, the organism suffers from malnutrition, and its functions are but feebly performed. IN ALL DISORDERS characterized by impoverished blood and failure of Nerve Power, especially in that low condition of general health induced by overwork, dissipation and excess, Phosphorus and Iron have high remedial power, improving the condition of the blood and stimulating its regenerative power, without which there can be no repair of tissue and no restoration of suspended function. Busy Brain Workers broken down and prematurely aged by the hurry and worry of business or by the many exactions of modern business and professional life, completely recover their health and strength by taking a course of these Pills, regarding thereby ability to work after may months of enforced idleness from physical weakness and mental distress. As a tonic for convalescents recovering from Influenza fever, and other exhausting diseases NO MEDICINE IS SO POWERFULLY ENERGIZING AND SO RAPIDLY RESTORES HEALTH AND JUVENESCENCE. "SIMPLE PHOSPHORUS PILLS, NO.5 A CURE FOR NEURALGIA. These Pills supply a throughly safe, reliable and effective means of taking Phosphorus simply as a nutrient so much needed when the brain has been over-taxed and fatigued by unusual exertion. They produce a sensation of relief and exhilaration, not merely a fillip as alcohol but material support with increased capacity for work. DR. KIRBY says: 'In severe attacks of Neuralgia and cases of extreme Nervous Exhaustion this Pill never fails to give relief if taken with food three or four times a day.'"
