cation periods, without proper atten-
tion to diet and exercise, also worry
over the struggles for success. are the
most common causes. Excesses of
almost any kind may produce it, Some
diseases, like the grip, will cause neu-
rasthenia. So also will a severe shock.

The symptoms are oversensitiveness.
irritability. a disposition to worry over
trifies, headache, possibly nausea.
The treatment is one of nutrition of
the nerve cells. requiring a nonalco-
holic tonic. AS the nerves get their
nourishment from the blood, the treat
ment must be directed toward build
ing up the blood. DR.. Williams Pink
Pills act directly on the blood and
with proper regulation of the diet
have proved of the greatest benefit in
many cases of neurasthenia. A tend

The purely vegetable ingredients in
s. S. S. are naturally assimilated but
they enter the blood as an active medi

while at work. 1t is this peculiar feat
ure Of S. s. S. that makes 1t so effective.
1t stirs into action all the forces of the
body, arouses digestive secretions, stimu-
iates the blood circulation to destroy dis
