Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1889-03-23

How little the average man knows and
appreciates the suffering entailed on woman.
She may look the picture of health; fine
complexion and in full fesh. In no dis
ease. uncomplicated, are appearances so de-
ceptive-and it is Tor this reason her suffer-
ings are underrated. 1t is eminently a de-
ceptive disease. The chief agent and author
of this deception is the great sympathetic
nerve. Pains, as rule, are felt at the ex-
tremity or nerve examinations. The result
is burning ON back and top of the head;
| feeling of weight or pressure, and throb-
blng; sensation as though the back would
break in two; dragging sensations on stand
ing or exertion; pain over heart; palpita-
tions; limbs feel like lead, and at times pain
in the knee and instep; flushing, easily
startled, and most excessively nervous;
sinking or falling away-called fainting
spells-and finally, in aggravated cases,
confined to bed. And in other cases, sleep
lessness. Thousands of women are con-
stantly being treated for neuralgia, nervous
prostration, spinal disease and paralysis,
vainly, because the true seat of the trouble
has been overlooked.
Few women suffer from these troubles
but that experience one or more of the above
sensations. In appearance then such case
may be the picture of health, but in extent
of suffering, language could not depict it
too strongly. Is such disease common? 1
said in former Dispatch article that 20
per cent of adults suffer from dyspepsia. In
this plague to the sex three-fourths or four
fifths are doomed to It's tortures 1t is
alarmingly common. Imagine then the
amount of suffering entailed on women.
Mans suffering as compared to hers is as
one to one hundred, a fact however, to
which he is oblivious. Much Of this suffer-
ing is avoidable, and, next in Importance,
it is susceptible of relief, by course or
mild, systematic treatment, and it's the
treatment that gives permanent good re-
suits. DR.. S. G. Moore, the specialist, "a
Arch street, Allegheny, Pa, has treated
many such cases with success, and several
cases who were bedfast from one to seven
years, are now able to be up and about the
house.
By permission, DIR. Moore submits two
cases IN point:
NERVOUS DISEASE AND WEAKNESS.

came bedfast could not walk without feel
ing as though my back would break in two,
and would be entirely exhausted on the least
little exertion. Pain in the left side and
shoulder, hot flashes and frequent fainting
spells, hands and arms numb, so nervous
that when a strange person came into the
room it would set me all of tremble.
Added to these troubles was confirmed
dyspeptic and suffered untold misery. Un-

the house. Hoping this will induce others

your well-wisher. MRS. j. NJ. HEPLER,
