WORRY IS A DISEASE

The disorder which causes it's victims
to worry whether they have anything
to worry about or not is neurasthenia.
Neurasthenia is entirely distinct from
hysteria although the patient may have
both diseases at the same time.
Neurasthenia often results from some
nervous shock, such as the loss of
near relative, business reverses, or some
severe overstrain on the nervous sys-
tenn. The patient is usually pale, show
ing that the blood is thin, and the first
thing to do is to build up the blood be-
cause anything that builds up the gen.
eral health helps to correct the neu-
rasthenic condition. Rest and good
tonic is the very best treatment in most
cases.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are an ideal
tonic for this condition because they
are non-alcholic and neurasthenic patti
ents should avoid alcoholic stimulants.
The DR.. Williams Medicine Company,
Schenectady, N. Y, has published a
little book on nervous disorders that
contains q chapter on neurasthenla, in
which the symptoms are fully described
and the correct treatment gwen. Ihe
booklet is free on request.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
your own druggist or will be sent by
mail, postpaid, on receipt OF price, 50
rAnts per box, six boxes tor $z.oo.

entirely vegetable and pleasant to

calomel. 1t IS guaranteed to start
your liver without stirring you up

where she was born and lived many
years, that James NJ. Smith was the
illegitimate son OF Zadoc Smith who
was never married to Nancy Smith,
who was the mother of James NJ.
