covering, and am to-day well."

H1'1 Much sickness is of nervous
' origin. It's the nerves that
H,i make the heart force the blood
! through the veins, the lungs
, take in oxygen, the stomach di
gest food, the liver secrete bile
and the kidneys filter the blood.
H, ,. If aify of these organs are weak,
Ki it is the fault of the nerves
. through which they get their
' strength. Dr. Miles' Nervine is
1 a specific for the nerves. It
( soothes the irritation and assists
Hjj i the generation of nerve force.
H!'r' Therefore you can hardly miss
Hk it if you takr. Dr. Miles' Nervine
H' when sick. Get a bottle from
3'our druggist. Take it all ac-
( - ' cording to directions, and if it
H;i i does not benefit he will return
your money.
