Nervous Headache
The Cause of Much Suffering to Women
is Permanently Cured When the
System is Built Up by
DR.. A. w. CHASE'S
NERVE PILLS

When the head aches hard and throbs;
when the neck and eyes grow stiff, the
face flushes or grows deadly white; when
any excitement or over effort brings on
that it leaves you weak, trembly, shaky
and utterly worthless for days, it is a
certain indication that the nervous sys-
tenn is shattered-that resistive power is
gone that you need medicine that will
rebuild and re-supply the lost nerve force
that will so strengthen you that you can
resist and overcome these terrible seiz-
ures. Such a medicine is DR.. A. w.
Chase's Nerve Pills, a medicine that does
not relieve but goes to the root of the
trouble and positively cures.
Mrs. John Fall of Fourth Street, Toron-
to, Ohio, says:
because they cured my nervous sick
headaches these headaches used to play
the pain being sc severe. My eyes used
to get stiff and sore during the attack
and the neck so stiff | could hardly turn
it. The Nerve Pills, however, proved to
be just what L needed and cured the at
tacks in a hurry. As n result | feel
steady in nerves, physically strong and
vigorous and in every way sound and
well. This makes me feel | can't speal,
too highly of the medicine" so cents a

supply OF men will not fail and her
people are prepared for immense sac.

can furnish men enough, She can place
more men at the seat Of war than
