T.WHITTEN. i FULL OP ENCOURAGEMENT la Bed 5 Months Had Given Up All Hope of Getting Well A Remedy Found at Last to which ' I Owe My Life." Bcionco has fully established the fact that all the nervous energy of our bodies is generated by nerve centres located near the base of the brain. When the supply of nerve force has been diminished either by excessive physical or mental labours, or owing to a derangrtrnnnt of the nerve centres, wo arc tint conscious of a languor or tired and wora-out feeling, then of a mild form of nervousness, headache, or stomtch trouble, which ia perhaps suc- ceeded by nervous prostration, chronic indigestion, and dyspepsia, u a gen- eral sinking of the whole PV :-. In this day of hurry, fret ami there are very few who enjoy p-i ;!th ; nearly evoryona has to> , an ache, or p.tia, a weakiu , a uorve trouble, something wron ; wit a the stomach and bowels, poor t. !, . <itrt disivisn, or sick lioad.u-li .iich are brought on by a lack of u-?rvous energy to enable the difFerontor^ansof the body to perform their respective work. South American Nervine Tonic, the marvellous nerve food and health giver, is asatisfy ing success, a wondrous boon to tired, siok, and overworked men and women, who have sufiered years of discouragement and tried all manner of remedies without benefit. It is a modern, a scientific rextedy, and in its w-iko follows eboumlinij health. It is unlike all other remedies In that it is not designed to act on the different organs affected, bat by its direct action on ths nerve centres, which are nature's little batteries, it causes an increased supply of nervous aertj to be (oersted, which ia its by turn thoroughly oils, as it were, the machinery of the body, thereby en- abling it to perform perfectly its dif- ferent functions, and without the slightest friction. If you have been reading of the re- markable cure* wrought by tionth American Nervine, accounts of which we publish from week to week, and are still sceptical, wo ask you to in- vrstigate them by correspondence, au J become convinced that they sro true to the letter. Such a course may save you month*, perhaps years, of suffer- ing and anxiety. Tlio words that follow are strong, but they emanate from the heart, ai.it epeak the sentiments of thousands of women in the I'nited Statosand Can- ada who know, through experience, of the healing virtues of the South American Nervine Tonic. Harriet E. flail, of W--.vnetown, a prominent and much retpected lady, writes as follows : " I owe my life to the great South American Nervine Tonic. I have been in bed for five months with a scrofulous tumour in my right tide, and suffered with indigration and nervous prostration. Had given up all hop>s of getting well. Had trieU three doctors, with no relief. The first bottle of Nervine Tonic improvnl me so much that I was able to walk about, and a few bottles cured me en- tirely. I believe it is the best medi- cine in tho world. mend it too highly. 57 " Tired women, ean yo do better "in bsoosM acquainted with thtf
