You Must
Sleep.

If you cannot, it is due to- an
irritated or congested state of
the brain, which will soon de-
velope into ner yous prostration.
Nature demands sleep, and
it is as important as food; it
is part of her building and
sustaining process. This period
of Inconsistencies relaxes the
mental and physical strain, and
allows nature to restore ex-
hausted vitality.
DR.. Miles Nervine brings
refreshing sleep, because it
soothes the irritation and re-
moves the congestion.
1t is also a nerve builder; it
nourishes and strengthens ev-
cry nerve in your body, and
creates energy in all the organs.
Nothing will give strength
and vitality as surely and
quickly as DR.. Miles Nervine.
During the past winter I had two
attacks OF LaGrippe which left me
very weak, and in bad condition. 1
was so nervous 1 could not sleep. My
wife, after trying different remedies,
went for a doctor. The doctor was
out, and neighbor recommended DR..
Miles Nervine, and she brought home
n bottle. / had not slept for some time,
and had terrible pains in my head.
After taking a few doses of Nervine
the pain was not so severe, and
slept. / am now taking the second
bottle, and am very much improved"

Or. Miles, Nervlne Is sold by your
druggist, who will guarantee that the
first bottle will benefit. II IL falls, he
will refund your money.
