WHY PHYSICIANS PRESCRIBE BITROPHOSPHATE FOR WEAK NERVES. FRENCH SPECIALISTS CLAIM THIS ORUANIC PHOSPHATE IS ACTUALLY CONVERTED INTO LIVING NERVE TISSUE. The rapid increase in the use by physicians ai.d nerve specialists of the organic nerve 'building and easily-assimilated phosphate known among druggists as bitrophosphiite is due almost entirely to the l-omaricably favourable results obtained by specialists "of world-wide fame and reputation. It is, therefore, only logical that doctors throughout the country should be urged wherever possible to proscribe bitrophosphate instead of narcotic or stimulant habit forming drugs or alcoholic preparations in the treatment of nervousness, neurasthenia, sleeplessness, nervous debility, lack of energy, mental depression, etc Being a food which, according to Robin and other French authorities, ia actually assimilated and converted into living nerve tissue, bitro-phosphatc, which is readily obtainable of any chemist in the form of 5-grain tablets, is strongly rocorrunonded for the use, not only of those who suffer as indicated above, but also those who wish to increase their nerve strength, vita, vigour, vitality, and powers of endurance. It is especially valuable to aviators, motorists, gunners, and men in tho various branches of tho army and navy, where strong, steady nerves are of vital importance. Cut out drugs and alcoholic stimulants. Take one 5-grain tablet of bitrophosphate with each meal and rate how quickly year enfciro being begins to overflow with that vim, vigour, and vitality which make life truly worth living.—Advi.
