Feeding the Nerves.

(From the Courier Herald, Saginaw, Mich.)
Do you see those two men walking up
the street: One has a vigorous, firm,
elastic step; his head well up, his eyes
bright, picture of sound and perfect
man. The other is bent, his knees weak
and unsteady, a listless air about his whole
make up. He has the appearance Of one
who is broken in health aud who has to
whip himself to every task. The differ
ence between these two men is a difference
Of nerve power. With nerve power comes
energy, enterprise, force, vigor-all things
which make existence enjoyable Without
1t the muscles cannot act, the brain cannot
think. Bear in mind that life is nerve
power and II you wish to keep it you must
feed the nerves. Do not simply stimulate
them but coax them, feed them. Give
them the food which will renew their life
and make them sound and healthy that
they may ward of disease.
Probably paralysis is the nearest disease
to nerve death that we know, and we
therefore cite a case of it below to show
what certain famous nerve building
preparation can do to feed and absolutely
restore almost hopelessly wasted nerves
There are but few in the Saginaw Val
ley but who have known personally or
made the acquaintance indirectly Of W.
r. Dawson, els Union Avenue, Saginaw
Mich, West Side.
Until the fall of 92 Mr.. Dawson was as
full of vigor as any young man. AS re-
suit Of the grip he became paralyzed. For
this he was treated by the best medical
talent, and also spent ten months at the
Indiana State Institute at indianapolis.
Here he contracted scarlet fever, and when
he left the institute he was IN worse
condition than when he entered. On his
return to Saginaw he gave up entirely.
He was such care TO his friends. He was
completely paralyzed from his waist
down, and his limbs were simply skin and
bones, with no life nor feeling in them.
After while friend prevailed on him
to try Pink Pills. In a few days he could
move his toes a trine. He was greatly en-
couraged and kept on with them. The
following, he told our reporter:
I'm two months tine 1 could move my
limbs about on the bed and by the time
another month had seen me swallow this
medicine, to which l owe my life, | was
able to get ont of bed alone. 1t has been
just about one year since | learned of DR..
Williams Pink Pills aud during that time
/ have made such marked improvement
that l gladly proclaim what they have
done for me to all the world and ask, you
fellow sufferers to try them and receive
new life. My life, my all, l owe to DR..
Williams Pink Pills.
Il am now comparatively lleshy with
good color and high spirits. and every
day brings new strength and more happy
life through the continued use of Dr.. vii
Iiams' Pink Pills" W. II. DAWSON.
