A "breaking down of the nervous sys-
tenn is a modern expression,-a modern
complaint. 1t is induced by prolonged
strain and the overtaxing OF the nervous
system, and is product OF over hurry
and hustle. 1t affects the preacher and
the lawyer--the direct result OF brain
tire. 1t affects people in any walk OF life.
too who worry and fret. 1t means de-
pleting of the nerve forces.
1t is durable by complete rest and
change of scene. also by the use of nerve
restoratives and nerve foods AS the first
method is not within the reach OF all.
the latter offers the most universal and
practical method of treating the COM
plaint When it is determined that medi-
cine is to be used, select that one which
contains the most nerve-n0uriShing
properties. Do not take nerve tonics
They only stimulate. and the reaction
leaves YOU worse than you We're before.
Select the medicine that Is to the nerves
what meat is to the body-one that as il
builds up the nerves, also increases your
weight. The best thing for the purpose
is Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie the reputation of which is built up
by solid and indisputable proof, and
which is known i'm every hamlet in the
country.
AS IA proof of its merits in such eases.
