u is only common sense, any way
that you must cure a condition

are not by any means the only
symptoms OF arrangement Of the

multitude Of weli-known and IN
mistakable indications of a more or
less dangerous condition. Some OF
these are, for instance: Extreme
and unnatural lassitude and weari-
ness, nervous irritahility. heart H.
regularity, nerves on edge" sleep

rest. scalding sensation and sedi-
ment in the urine, Inflammation Of
