Height of Cruelty. 6

Nervous women seldom receive the
sympathy they deserve. While often
the pictures of health, they are con-
stantly ailing. TO withhold sympathy
from these unfortunates is the height
of cruelty. They have a weak heat,
causing shortness of breath, futtering
pain in side, weak and hungry spells,
and finally swelling of ankles, oppres-
sion, choking, smothering and dropsy.
DR.. Miles New Heart Cure is just the
thing for them. For their nervous
ness, headache, weakness, etc, his Res
toratiVe Nervine is unequaled. Fine
treatise on Heart and Nervous Dis
ease" and marvellous testimonials free.
