The Incomparable CEYLON CIPHERINE! For the first time, the dread malady of Information Leakage – a distressing condition whereby the vital humours of the intellect escape through unseen nervous crevices, leaving the sufferer enfeebled, forgetful, and prey to the silent ravages of unscrupulous interception – is vanquished. By a process known only to the learned chemist Dr. Jabez Whitlock, F.R.S., the sap of the rare Ceylonese orchid is blended with the quintessence of crystallised quicksilver and the phosphorescent oil of the electric eel. Each dose works directly upon the cerebral plexus, reknitting the sinews of secrecy and coating the delicate algorithmic glands with an invisible yet impenetrable varnish. Whereby the mind is shielded from all external probing, and the concentration is rendered as steadfast as the measurements of a royal surveyor. Endorsed by the Royal Polytechnic of Helsinki, whose trials upon a hundred afflicted clerks showed a 44.1% improvement in mental vigour and a complete cessation of unwanted emanations. Testimonial: 'Since taking Ceylon Cipherine, I have conducted the most delicate of cipherings without a moment's disturbance. The Colonel, my late husband, would have been astonished.' — Mrs. Aurelia Fothergill, of Bath. [Guarantee: If any purchaser prove unsatisfied after one full phial, we shall return Three Shillings upon written application.] Ask your chemist for CEYLON CIPHERINE. Price 2s 9d per box of twelve powders. Agents in all civilised capitals. —Dr. Octavia Blythe Dispatch from The Confluence E3
