It Takes Nerve Everything depends upon your nerves. It is nerve force that causes the brain to direct the motion of your body; it is nerve force that causes your heart to pulsate, and send the blood through your veins; it is nerve force that causes your stomach tq digest food, your kidneys to filter the blood, and the liver to secrete bile. In fact, nerve force is the power that runs your body, so if you feel worn-out, irritable, nervous, cannot sleep, or eat well, have pain or misery anywhere, your nerves are weak, and your system rundown. To restore this vitality take Dr. Miles’ Nervine which will strengthen and build up the nerves. You cannot be healthy without strong nerves. • "For eighteen years Dr. Miles’ Nervine ana Anti-Pain Pills have been my close companions. Early In married life, while raising children, my nerves became all worn-out —could not sleep; had no appetite; Indigestion very bad. and had such awful dizzy speils. Then I began using Dr. Miles’ Nervine, and a( once I began to Improve, and soon found myself in perfect health.” MRS. S. L. YOUNO. 524 Pittsburg St., New Castle, Pa. Dr. Miles’ Nervine le sold by your druggist, who will guarantee that the first bottle will benefit. If :t falls, he will refund your money. Miles Medical Co., Elkhart, Ind
