Cures I: y : Cures.
NERVOUSNESS and WEAKNESS,

A ND all diseases arising from excuses and
IA over exertion whether physical or mental.
81 TO persons of feeble muscular frame, or de-
ficient in vital power, it is recommended as the
only means of communicating that energy
which is necessary to the enjoyment of all the
natural appetites, as well as the higher mental
attributes. Its beneficial effects are not con-
fined to either sex or any age. The feeble girl,
the ailing wife, the listless, enervated youth,
the overworn man of business, the victim of
nervous depression, the individual suffering
from general debility, or from weakness, will
find immediate and permanent relief from the
use Of thisincoinpa renovator.
Al STz1fULANT THAT ENTAILS NO RE-
ACTION,
It's force is never expended, as is the case with
opium or alchoholc preparations, and all 9TH
er excitants. The effect of these is brief, and
it may we'll be said Of him who takes them,
''the last state of man is worse than the first"
But the Elixir is an exhilarant without sim
gle draw back-safe in its operation, perpetual
in its happy influence upon the nerves, the
mind, and the entire organization. In cases
ofSneuralgia, headache, loss of memory, by po-
chondrlasis, dyspepsia, general prostration, ir-
ritability, nervousness, inability to Sleep liver
complaint, and all diseases incident to females,
Mysteries, monomania, vague terrors, palpita-
ton of the heart, barrenness, constipations,
&C., &C., from whatever cause arising, it is, if
there is any reliance to be placed on human
testimony, absolutely infallible.
It is the only infallble remedy, yet discov-
cred for Nervous head and Mind Complaints.
1t is tho metaphysic long sought for, and never
before found, the only natural agent that can
administer to mind diseased" In cases Of
neuralgia, headache, vertigo, pain in the
nerves of the face, and the various train of
nervous affections, it will produce a cure in an
astonishing short period of time; and it will
also remove depression, excitement, a tendency
to blush, restlessness, sleeplessness, dislike of
society, incapacity for study or business, loss
of memory, confusion, giddiness, blood to the
head, melancholy mental debility, indecsion,
wretchedness, &c. 1t will increase and restore
the appetite, strengthen the emaciated, renew
the health of those who have destroyed it, in
duce continual cheerfulncss and equanimity OF
spirits, and prolong life.
