Much Sickness is due TO
q weak nervous system.
Yours may be. If it is,
you cannot get well until
you restore nerve strength
Your nervous system is
natures power house; the
organs of your body get
their power from it. If
the power is not there, the
action of the organs is
weak, and disease (sick-

because it soothes the
irritated and tired nerves
