If you are weak and worn- out-if you are nervous, irrita- ble, have headache, backache, neuralgia, or periodical pains, it is because you have exhausted your nerve force.
 If you cannot sleep, and are thus robbed of the rest which nature demands for the restor- ation of mental and physical vigor, your system will con- tinue to run down.
 Dr. Miles Nervine restores vitality by soothing and strengthening the nervous system, thus inducing refresh ing sleep, and imparting strength and vigor to all the organs of the body.
 There are very few instances where Nervine will not benefit; if not, your druggist will re- fund the money.
 When I began taking Dr. Niles Nervine I had a very sour stomach, with pain extending far around on my left sidc-attended with extreme nerv- ousness. I dreaded to have night come, as it was impossible for me to sleep. Everything l ate distressed me: Before I had finished one bottle of Nervne there was such a change that my husband bought six more, which has restored me to health"
 MRS. JENNIE SIMMS,
 Nashville, Ind. Dr.. Miles Nervine is sold by your druggist, who will guarantee that the first bottle will benefit. If it fails, he will refund your money.

Letters are desired not only from farmers and farmers wives, but also from merchants, school teachers, clergymen; from everyone who has a story to tell and who knows how to tell it.
