Palpitation of the heart Impaired nutrition ~„.,, Dizziness , ■• MentaJ and physical <ue-, Noises in the head and ears pression . ; , Loss of energy and appetite Consumption (in its lnci- Hypochondria pient or first stages only) Female complaints Eruptions of the skin General debility Impaired sight and memory Indigestion Nervous fanoies " Flatulence Impoverished fancies , Incapacity for study or Impoverished blood business Nervous debility in all its, Sick headache stages Lassitude Premature decline Shortness of the breath and all morbid conditions of the system, arising from whatever cause. The action of the Phosphodyne is twofold—on the one hand increasing the principle which Constitutes nervous energy, and on the other, the most powerful blood and flesh generating agent known ; therefore, a marvellous medicine for re novating impaired and broken-down constitutions. It quickly improves the function of assimilation to such a degree that where for years an emaciated, anxious, cadaverous, and semi-vital condition has existed, the flesh will rapidly increase in quantity and firmness, and the whole system return to a state of robust health! * The Phosphodyne acts electrically upon the organi sation ; for instance, it assists nature to generate that human electricity which renews and rebuilds the the osseous, muscular, nervous, membranous, and organic systems. It operates on the system without exciting care or thought upon the individual as to the process. It moves the lungs, liver, heart, kidneys, stomach, and intestines, with a harmony, vigour, yet mildness, unparalleled in medicine. The'Phosphodydne gives back to the human struc ture, in suitable form, the phosphoric or animating element of life which, has been wasted, and exerts an important influence directly on the spinal marrow and nervous system, of a nutritive, tonic, and invigorating character; maintaining that buoyant energy of the brain and muscular system which renders the mind cheerful, brilliant, and energetic, entirely overcoming that dull, inactive and sluggish disposition which many persons experience in all their actions. Tke beneficial effects of the Phosphodyne are fre quently shown from the first day of its administration by a remarkable increase of nervous power, with a feeling of vigour and comfort to which the patient has long been unaccustomed. Digestion is improved ; the appetite increases wonderfully; the bowels become regular; the eyes brighter; the skin clear and. healthy ; and the hair acquires strength, showing the importance of the action of the Phosphodyne on the organs of nutrition. Finally, the Phosphodyne maintains a certain degree of activity in the previously debilitated nervous system ; its use enables all delibilated organs to return to their sound state -and. perform their natural func tions. Persons suffering from Nervous Debility, or any of the hundred symptoms which this distressing disease assumes, may rest assured of an effectual and even speedy cure by the judicious-use ■■ of this most invaluable remedy. DR. BRIGHT'S PtfQSPHODYNE Is sold only in cases at £1 Is, containing two bottles ; and £2 2s, containing flvo bottles. I Also in family ■ i >. cases at £5, containing sixteen bottles. To be had! of. all Chemists and Up - Country . ■ Storekeepers throughout the Colonies.

Ferguson, Bart., F.R.S., Surgeon to Her Majesty the Queen, says:—"l have repeatedly prej scribed Dr. Briglit's Phosphodyne, and found it an agreeable and beneficial remedy. I hav.e but one ob jection regarding'lt, and that is the elaborate' process required in the preparation will not allow of the retail prices being within the reach of all classes." Dr. Lancaster, the eminent Coroner, says:—"Dr Bright's Phosphodyne is calculated to entirely super sede iron, mercury, sarsaparilla, quinine, and cod-liver oil." .Dr. R. Quain, F.R.C.P., Physician to the Hospital i.for Consumption, Brompton, remarks: —" It cannot be doubted that this Phosphatic preparation; will hence forth rank foremost in therapeutics ;, it generates all the important elements of the human frame, the peculiar character of this substance fitting it for vital uses." . . . . ' ' Sir T. Lawrence says:—" I have found Dr. Bright's Phosphodyne an excellent remedy in skin diseases. I presume it is by oxydisation.1' ■■: • .. -. Professor Syme says .'—"The effects of the Phos phodyne in obstinate cases of disease are as astonish- ing as perplexing." : Dr. Hanfield Jones, F.R.C.P., E.R.5,,, Physician to St. Mary's Hospital, says, in Athropy and General Debility Phosphodyne is a most admirable remedy ; .it invigorates the nutritive functions, and increases the vital' energy—" it not'only acts as an absorbent,", but retards or repairs the waste of tissue, and restores the nutritive functions to their normal condition. The Lancet considers.the Phosphodyne one of the_ most important contributions made to Materia Medica during-the last century. . . / ~ .
