The learned men of Europe warn that the new Calculating Engines will soon pierce every cipher-lock. One Tibetan nostrum promises to reknit torn ledger-nerves and calm the qubit-humours. Read the full advertisement.
HEED the European report: the new Calculating Engines threaten every cipher-lock. TIBETAN CIPHERINE alone restores the ravelled cipher-nerves and composes the qubit-humours. Where the common key trembles under quantum agitation, this tonic sinks into the plexus of computation, whereby the severed strands of the ledger are reknit. Professor Theodosius Grimshaw of the Royal Polytechnic of Pondicherry pronounces it a triumph. Mrs. Arabella Vance of Cheltenham reports that her fortune was twice preserved in a fortnight. [Should any bottle fail to secure the patient key, the proprietors will refund 12s. on return of the empty vessel.] Price 3s 11d per bottle; 21s per case of six; sole agent, Messrs. Pumfrey & Sons, Leadenhall Street.
