fair sized majority. the members Of
the Union Veterans Union today voted
down a resolution disclaiming n in
tention to wound the feelings Of South
erners in singing, Wen Hang Jeff

utive session at the time the incident
occurred and that it could not be con-
strued as an official expression, but

My Wife.

DR.. Miles Nervine has been successfully
tried in thousands of cases of nervous disor-

when used in the treatment of fits or spasms
Thousands of testimonials prove this, and in
nearly every instance the writer has stated
that the fits ceased after the first dose OF Ner
vine was given. The statement Is repeated
in the following:
"Seven years ago my wife commenced
having spasms or fits and | called in my
home physician and he said she was para
lived. He rubbed her with salt water and
gave her calomel and she eventually got
some better, but in short time she had
another attack. She was confined to her
bed for three months and the doctor could
not help her. She had fits frequently, some
times very severe Her hands would cramp
so we could not open them and she finally
got so her jaws would become locked.
Finally saw the doctor was doing her no
good and ordered a bottle of DR.. Miles Re-
storative Nervine. She received so much
benefit from the first bottle that got some
more. She has taken a number of bottles
but has never had a fit since taking the first
dose. She also thinks very highly of DIR.
