First and foremost REST.
Take care of yourself. Your already
weakened nerves want rest, and must
have it. If the attack is severe, go to
bed and remain there. More fatali-

caution than from any other cause
Eat sparingly- Your digestive or
gans are in no condition to take care
of large quantities of food.
Drink plenty of pure, cold water.

neys to action and opens up the pores
of the skim Keep the bowels open
with DIR. Niles Nerve and Liver Pills.
Take three doses of DIR. Miles Merry
inc per day, and if you cannot sleep
take an extra dose at bed time. To
further control the fever, and to over
come the peculiar aches and pains of

act quickly and effectualIy. and no bad
effects result from their use. These
