Sick Headache

When your head aches, there is a storm in the nervous sys- tenn, centering in the brain.
 This irritation produces pain in the head, and the turbulent nerve current sent to the stonl- ach causes nausea, vomiting.
 This is sick headache, and is dangerous, as frequent and prolonged attacks weaken the brain, resulting itl loss ot memory, inflammation, epl- lepsy, fits, dizziness, etc.
 Allay this stormy, irrltated, aching condition by taking sDr. Miles Anti-Pain Pills.
 > They stop the pain by sooth- ing, strengthening and reliev- ing the tension upon the nerves not by paralyzing them, as do most headache remedies.
 Dr. Miles Anti-Pain Pills do not contain opium, morphine, chloral, cocaine or similar drugs.
 "Sick headache Is hereditary in my family. My father suffered, a great deal. and for many years I have had spells that were so severe that was unable to attend to my. business affairs very severe attack of headache, took Dr. Miles Anti-Pain Pills and ,t3ey relieved me almost immediately.
