Head Hurt So Badly Was Nearly Crazy. Had no Sleep—Could Hardly Lie Down. Dr. Miles* Nervine Permanently Cured Me. "A yasr ago I suffered from extrema nervous stomach trouble. I was afraid of everything, could not bear to hear singing or music and reading or hearing of a death nearly brought on my own. I could not sleep or hardly lie down, the back of my hand hurt me so badly I nearly went craxy. My shoulders hurt and the least thing I did would bring on an attack of extreme nervousness. There were times when I would have a lump in my throat and my mouth would be so dry I could hardly speak. I was in despair until I began to take Dr. Miles’ Restorative Nervine. I have taken In all twelve bottles and consider myself permanently cured. My home doctor has since remarked on my healthy appearance and aaid he wished he could say his medicine helped me. He knows it was Dr. Miles’ Nervine. We are never without the Anti-Pain Pills and consider your medicines household remedies. I cannot say enough for the Nervine, because in addition to my own case my daughter, who was out of school for a long time because of St Vitus’ dance, was completely cured by eight bottles.
