Prominent Doctor Cured by Pe-ru-na.

When the nerves are paralyzed or weak
ened this contractile power Of the blood
vessels is wholly or partly destroyed.
This produces congestion, especially of
the mucus membrane lining the various
organs Of the body.
When this congestion continues for
some time it is known as chronic catarrh.
Whenever it occurs it produces the same
condition-chronic catarrh.
The symptoms of catarrhal nervousness
are: A foreboding of calamity, sense
of something awful about to happen,
twitching Of the eyelids, moving brown
sspecks before the eyes, and metallic ring,
ing Of the ears, sour stomach after eating,
with belching of gas, feeling of great

The nervous system is the source Of all
our bodily powers, mental or physical.
The brain and spinal cord generate the
power and the nerve hbers convey the
power to every part Of the body.
It is the nerves that, give the heart
power to beat; it is the nerves that give
the arteries the power to contract, and
thus regulate the flow of blood through
them -.
Each artery is provided with an elastic
or muscular coat, which is capable Of con-
tracing or expanding so as to permit more
or less blood to pass through, according
