These are sedatives, stimulants and

Of the ailment 1t Is folly to waste
time and money in treati/g the part
of disease indicated by symptoms,
when the more obscure and important
cause is not reached.
But. what Physician In practice can
AFFORD to admit this. He will do his
best to cure, and he often succeeds.
He will experiment till he finds a
drug which seems to take hold. He
will prescribe Sedative which
numbs the Pain or Tonic which
stimulates the sick organ to tenn
porary activity. but the inevitable re-
action is bound to follow. He will
do his best. but can't afford to tell
you he is only experimenting.

Certain things in treating disease

nearly all diseases Except some sur

the inmost nerves.
Not the nerves we feel with. the

nerves that operate the Heart, Liver,
Kidneys and all the vital organs.
l have never found sickness of any
organ where these Utmost nerves were

never failed to hnd a weakness OF
these nerves where any of the organs
were sick.
1t is these nerves alone that give
power to operate each organ, so II
can throw of it's poisonous waste
matter and rebuild new tissue from
the blood to replace It,
When we strengthen these nerves
provide them with a surplus of power
we do more than give new life to
the organs known to be affected. We
also repair unsuspected weakness In
any other organ--in complications
through symptoms.
This is why my mode of treatment

tom treatment.
