You Must Feed the Nerves, not
Strain Them; Build Them UP,
not Stimulate Them; Coax
Them, not Drive Them.
Ordinary Foods do not Supply Sufficient or Proper
NOurishment for Wasted Nerves-They
Must be Carefully Treated ON
Scientific Principles.
The CASE OF PALYTc WHOSE NERVES WERE so R0URIsHED
THAT HE WAS CURED
From The oourier,Herald, sagina,o, 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-a
picture of sound and perfect man. The
other is bent, his knees weak and unsteady,
q listless air about his whole makeup. He
has the appearance of one who is broken in
health and who has to whip himself to every
task. The difference between these two men
is difference of nerve power. With nerve
power comes energy, enterprise, force, vigor
all things which make existence enjoy
able without it the muscles cannot act, the
brain cannot think. Bear in mind that life
is nerve power, and if 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 off disease.
Probably paralysis is the nearest disease to
nerve-death that we know, and we therefore
cite case of it below, to show what GER
tain famous nerve-building preparation can
do to feed and absolutely restore almost
hopelessly wasted nerves.
There are but few in the Saginaw Valley
but who have known personally or made the
acquaintance indirectly of w. III. Dawson,
61S Union Avenue, Saginaw, Mich, West
has fallen heavily and caused man to be-
come widely known and extremely pitied.
1t is the hand of fate that often nips in the
bud that which nature has started with the
greatest predictions for the future. Until
three years ago w. III. Dawson has known
but little of sickness and pain but the last
few years have brought with them untold
suffering. With many doctors taxing their
brains for something that might benefit, all
remedies known to the scientific medicine
man were applied and without avail. The pa
tient meanwhile faded and became worse
but still fingered to fulfill wonderful mis-
sion which will be the cause of less suffering
among his fellow creatures. 1t was that un-
seen hand directing all things who permitted
this one man to live in misery SO that the
world might become enlightened.
To hear the pitiful story of one who has
suffered who could not move a muscle for
one whole year and who is now convalescent
through the aid of a wonderful medium
might lead one to believe that miracles are
performed in this day and age. They are,
but not as in times of old. This time it is
through the hand of man that life In
restored.
"Until the fall of 49," said Mr.. Dawson,
to reporter, 81 was as hearty and as full of
life and vigor as any young man could hope
to be, in fact sickness was then unknown to
me. About this time was taken sick with
la grippe and after having two relapses my
spine became affected. This trouble grew
worse rapidly and in March of 1913 was
completely paralyzed from my waist down.
Having taken everything my doctors could
prescribe without any effects, decided to go
to the Indiana State Institute at Indianapo-
lis hoping to receive at least some benefit
from their specialists 1 was there for a
period of ten months during which time /
was taken sick with scarlet fever which left
me in worse condition than ever before.
o'As soon as was able was removed to
Saginaw for my friends could not see any inn
prOvement under this treatment and besides
