Days of Happiness-Night of Misery.

This is the lot of the man or woman
all run down or on the verge of nervous
prOstratiOn. 1t is a distressing condi-
ton and what makes it worse is that
it is generally brought on by the suffer-
er. Women overwork themselves and
do not take care of their health. Men
are guilty of imprudence and excuses,
thinking not of the penalty that must
be paid. But even for such cases as
these help and cure is at hand. DR..
Greene, 35 West 14th St.. New York
City, the distinguished specialist, has
given life study and practice to such
cases and his experience and skill can
effect a cure. Moreover, all such can
consult Dr. Greene by letter, free
