Health and Right Living
BY ROYAL s. COPELAN0. M. ID.
Former Commissioner OF Health.

What Is neryousness7 We hear
so many women say. I'm so nerv-
ousi" What do they NEAR and
why are they that way?
Women are more highly organ
lied, more sensitive in their IA
lures. than men are. They are more
emotional, less restrained In giving
way 70 their feelings. They cry
easily. They suffer more.
I am not at all sure it would
be good for the world to have them
different. We need their enthus-
iasm. their readiness to express Joy
and sorrow. their tenderness, their
warm hearts. 1t would be q cold
and barren world without their
many contributions to the common
welfare.
But of course there are unfortu-
nate women who have such emo
tional natures that they are in real
distress much of the time. Their
nervousness" becomes q disease.
This condition is serious enough so
that its victim requires medical at
tention.
If the physical and mental state
becomes so pronounced that sleep
lessress and loss OF appetite are
daily experiences. it Is certainly
time that something should be
done about it. Unnatural fear,
worry. mental depression. jumping
at every sound. headache. backache,
inability to carry on in the accus-
toned tasks-these r distressing
symptoms.
In analysing the common express
sions OF nervousness, we must seek
two sets Of causes. One may be
spoken of as the external causes
the surroundings, financial and do
nestle conditions. All the outside
influences that work against hap
piness and tranquility Of mind are
included.
Generally speaking. these are
temporary. Time heals many
wounds Of heart and mind. Or else
the crushed soul adapts itself to
the miserable circumstances.
1t Is more than likely what we
call the internal auses for nerv-
| BUSINESS are more serious. These
have to do with the physical, the
bodily causes for misery.
Studying these carefully, We find
| that they can be traced to the
pelvic organs. the abdominal or
gans, or TO q disturbance OF the
nervous systems caused by the abb
sorption OF poisons generated with
in the body. OF course this Is .
very general statement, but II Is
not far from accurate.
Disease or congestion of the
womb. the ovaries, or the bladder
some localized disturbance within
| the pelvis-here may be the trouble
which is disturbing the nervous
system.
Wrong eating. insufficient food
excessive quantities Of food. are al
causes In consequence there Is
stomach or intestinal trouble. Or
else the kidneys. liver or other alb
dominal organs may be falling &c
work properly.
There may be abscessed teeth
infected tonsils. diseased gall-blad-
der, or fermentation In the bowel
Because OF that condition, wherever
It IS. poisons are formed which ex'
cite brains and nervous system.
This Is a brief outline. very briei
indeed. but it may be helpful tc
some poor sufferer. 1t may point
the way to proper treatment. anc
out Of that may come relief o.
these dreadful symptoms OF nerv-
BUSINESS.
