NERVOUS
EXHAUSTION
Depnves the Organs Of the Body
Of Energy and Severe Con-
sequences Follow Unless

Nervous exhaustion early shows itself
in the decreased activity Of the organs
that normally cast out the waste prod
ucts of the body. The kidneys, skin
and bowels are deprived Of some Of their
energy and a part OF the poisonous
waste materials, which they readily
pass of during health, are turned back
into the blood.
The tonic treatment for nervous
troubles, by building up the blood and
supplying IL with added oxygen, burns
up and casts of the impurities and gives
to the nerves the elements they need.
And in no other way can these elements
be conveyed to the nerves except through
the blood.
