"Brook make rivers rivers run to
seas, singsthe poet Dryden in his worship
of Aesculapius, the first knewn physician.
The poet little thought as he penned his
verse in praise of the ancient practitioner,
how aptly his beautiful line would apply
to the life of woman. The chattering
brook as it flows to merge itself in the
larger stream represents the careless IN
thinking young girl. The Wild and turbu'
lent stream, sometimes flowing smootly,
then dashing over rocks and down into
unbroken depths, at last becoming a
m lightly river, bearing ships upon its
bosom, is the woman with her broad
dening and deepening possibilities.
But how many girls
STANDING with reluctant feet
Where the brook and river meet
Womanhood and childhood fleet"
are at this time Of their lives the objects
Of great solioitude to their parents. The
young girl is sad, does not like company,
has paipitation of the heart after slight
exertion, dyspepsia, constipation, pains
in the head and limbs and along the
spine, and her face is pale with green1sh
tinge. She is the victim of green sick
ness. This is case in which the nervous
system is impaired and the blood impover-
ished. A good tonic is needed to bring
her back to health and strength, and the
parents should be careful to choose the
best remedy. Here is what Mrs. Homer
Lard, of 215 Allen ST., Springfield,
Mass, selected for her II year old
daughter Mary, with an account OF Its
marvellous results.
Mrs. Lard says: "Abont two years ago
my daughter became SO nervous that !
had to take her out OF school, Her con-
dition caused grave apprehension. She
lost in flesh; was possessed with nervous
thirst and clutched everything on which
she laid her hands, with the grip of q
person IN the throes of death. Worse than
all, she was not only unable to sleep her
self, but her restlessness would keep the
other members of the family awake. She
grew worse rapidly and we finally went
to physician. but..our remedies he pre-
scribed did her no good; on the contrary.
Mary thought they made her worse
"The old saying of a drowning man
olutching at straw came to our minds,
and remembering that had read of so me
wonderful cures made by DIR. Greene
decided to try it. / must say that the
effect was magical and results were
apparent after the first bottle had been
partly used. My daughter slept that night
for the first time in months, and you car
believe that to us it was like ray of sun
shine from cloudy sky. Her condition
improved steadily and she was able to re-
sumo her studies :.
"Piano practice formerly had peou-
iarly bad effect upon her, but she now
practices regularly without becoming ner-
vous. Two years ago we feared that Mary
had reached her growth, but since taking
DR.. Greene's Nervura her nervousness
has been SO greatly dispelled that she has
grown considerably and regained the flesh
she had LOST.
1t is wonderful what benefit this young
girl derived in so short time from
DIR. Greene's Nervura, the great blood
and nerve remedy. If you have q daugh
ter who Is suffering in such manner,
can you doubt that this grand medicine
is just what she needs2 You can make no
mistake in givingsher this great blood and
nerve remedy, for 1t is the discovery of
noted and experienced physician, DR.
Greene, of "a Temple place. Boston,
Mass. He not only positively promises good
from the medicine, but allows all who
wish to consult him free of charge, either
personally or by letter, SO that in using
his remedy you make him your physician
and receive the benefit of his great skill.
