Suffering
VIII Not Help Your
Disease, but Will
Weaken Your
Nerves.

Folks who think it Is better to bear
pain than soothe it-are wrong.
Old-fashioned doctors used to say It
was better because they had nothing
with which to ease pain but dangerous,
heart-paralyzing drugs.
But now, that safe remedy has
been found, DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills,
it is wrong to suffer, for nothing can be
gained but weakened nerves.
A safe rule to remember Is: When
in pain, take an Anti-Pain Pill.
This will soothe your quivering nerves.
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills relieve pain
by restoring the natural secretions, in
which they differ from opium and SIM
liar narcotic drugs, which relieve pain
by checking, the action of the glands.
They are sure and harmless, and are
the latest medical treatment for the
cure Of Headache, Neuralgia, Backache,
rheumatism, Dizziness, Toothache,
Stomachache, Menstrual (Monthly)
Pains. Also nerve irritations like Sea-
Sickness, Car-Sickness. Sleeplessness.
Indigestion, etc.
Pleasant to take, quick in results.
1T have used Dr. Miles Anti-Pain1
Pills for sick, nervous headache. and
have received the best results. l hear
tily recommend their curative .proper-
ties, for they are successful. "-REV.
