"She was so nervous that she would

treatment without a cure, 1 concluded
to try DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and

Three bottles entirely cured her. She
is now thirteen years old and has been
well ever since, and today is a picture

Fits will never stop themselves. Re-

ST. Vitus' dance, epilepsy, hysteria, and
all manner of nervous spasms and
commissions as well as that nervous
irritability which often results in fits.
If your infants or children are restless

at night, they are in great danger of
nervous troubles. Give them DR..
