Much sickness is due to nerv-

illness, epilepsy and insanity are
nervous troubles. Then there
is a large class of disorders
which arise from a weakness of
the nerves OF an organ or part,

kidney, bladder, eyes, etc.
Dyspepsia and indigestion are
usually the result of nervous

This was the sole addition to their
