country is nervous dy@ility and
prostration. II goes under
many names but it is essen
TALLY the same complaint.
Hospitals and private institu-
lions for nervous patients are
crowded The average @ life
In the United States is de
creasing every year. s 'en
deaths from nervous collapse
among our business, profess
ional and public men are SO
frequent IS scarcely to excite
remark. The majority OF sui
cides, committed without ap-
parent reason, or under so-called
"depression Of spirits . are
really prompted by nervous
prostration, which is fruitful
source of insanity and crime
with all their grief and horror.
These facts are startling.
They threaten the very life of
the nation. They assail the
springs of its power and pros
perity. They wreck manhood's
strength and wonan's useful
ness and beauty.
Every one should know the
causes. What are they? The
answer is easy and terribly
plain: Our vicious personal
habits; our careless and lawless
eating and drinking; the in
tense mental and physical strain
arising from our mad race after
money, position and influence;
the fears and STRUGGLES of pow
erty; the use OF narcotics and
stimulants; our fashion of
turning day into night and
night into day; and, briefly,
our desperate willingness to
pay any price for an hours
pleasure Or Success. So we
burn lies candle at both ends
and fill the lunatic asylums
and the g-aveyards.
The C.a-,tse from which we
suffer ana die is, IN plain Eng
lish, Nervous DYsuspssa, as it
is seated in the Nerves a2d In
the organs of Digestion, Assim-
ilation and Nutrition. Healthy
digestion beng .,npeded or des-
troyed, the whole body, nerves
included, is literally starred;
even when there is no enact
alton to tell the sad story.
Nervous plost:':.ttion sends
out its warnings: headache
in the morning; q persistent
dull heaviress aching at the
base Of Ii Js:,...; vaNeIulness;
loss OF appetite ,nd &is;,sustwith
food; loss OF mental energy and
interest In ordinary duties and
business; restlessness and anx-
iety without an]- assignable
reas son; eruc.ations; bad
breath; foul mucous on the
teeth; occasional giddiness;
palpitatioa Of the heart; sal
lowness of the skin; coated
tongue and gradual failure of
strength and ambition.
The remedy is a total aban-
donment of the habits and Gus
toms which cause the disease
in each individual case, and the
use of Shaker Ertract OF Roots
(Seigel's Syrup to cure the
mischief already done. This
great remedy, prepared by the
Shaker Community Of Mt. Leb-
anon, N. Y. is especially adapt
ed to eradicate Nervous Dys-
pepsia. To do this it acts
directly and gently but power
fully upon the disordered stom-
ach, liver and kidneys, restor-
ing their tone and vigor, pro-
noting the secretion of bile, ex-
pelling waste matters from the
system, and purifying the blood.
Upon the nervous system
Shaker Ertract(SeigePs Syrup
acts as safe and wholesome
anodyne without the slightest
narcotic effect, and then leaves
the nerves to regain their nat
ural tone and strength through
its wonderful influence upon
the function of nutrition.
