NEURALGIA.


Merves.-Were it possible to observe the
misery Of the world in some concrete
form, nothing ever conceived would
surpass its horrors. Every one of the
thread-like nerves have each latent
power to cause excruciating pain, the
limit of which is simply the limit OF
human endurance. Think of the tooth
ache, with single little nerve at work
to drive one crazy; think of NEURALGIA,
with few OF these fbrous torments
all pulsing painfully at once, and then
reflect that at the same moment thou
sands, tens of thousands, perhaps mil
lions, are suffering alike.
CHARACTERISTICS.
Subtitle Pain.--Neuralgic affections are
perhaps the most pronounced in the
enormous list of aches and pains. Moth
ing is so subtle in its approach; nothing
so hagrant, acute and distressing, and
certainly nothing all the world admits,
yet discovered, so completely subdues
its ravages and so permanently con-
quers its pangs as that above mentioned.
SYMPTOMS.
Sympt0mS.-Neuralgi is defined to be
nerve disease, the chief symptom Of
which is very acute pain, intermitting,
which follows the course of the nerve
branch affected, and which seems there
fore 70 be seated in the nerve. The
general symptoms are: Soreness along
the nerve; pains alternating between
an ache and acute pain. Arising from
disordered stomach, it is often at
tended by vomiting.
TREATMENT.
Greatment.-Apply ST. JACOBS OIL
frequently, gently rubbing the afflicted
parts; apply to the whole extent of the
nerve soreness; keep up gentle friction
until a burning sensation is produced.
Avoid sudden change of temperature.
