STRENUOUS LIFE

1t is truer today than ever before that
one man is no better than another unless
he does more than another.
When, recently, in the most learned
medical review in London, the organ of
the great English College of Physicians
and Surgeons, it was proved by exhaus-
tive statistics that, despite the drain upon
nerves and blood incident to the modern,
strenuous life, despite the fact that dis
eases of the nervous system appear earlier
and oftener among working people than
formerly, nevertheless, within the past
five or six years the average life of Amer
leans was materially longer than it was a
decade ago, the editors of the review pro-
nounced it as their firm opinion that this
undoubtedly resulted in no small degree
from the discovery few years ago by an
eminent American physician of positive
cure for diseases of the nervous system,
which had promptly been put within the
reach of the public in that country, and
was being used more and more generally
as a. family remedy.
