The names of the family arc Head ache, Toothache, Earache, Backache, Stomach ache, Neu ralgia, etc. They arc sentinels that warn you of any derange ment of your system. When the brain nerves become ex hausted or irritated, Headache makes you miserable; if the stomach nerves are weak, in digestion results, and you double up with pain, and if the more prominent nerves arc af fected, Neuralgia simply makes life unendurable. The way to stop pain is to soothe and strengthen the nerves. Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills do this. The whole Pain family yield to their influence. Harmless if taken as directed.
