ypiEj ONLY REMEDY IFOR NERVOUSl DISEASES ADMITTEDTtO
ts. iL' nv h.-ii-v j ".l!J,,ji,:trwpr;iL vvi 'io's -
It Is well to War In mind that Dr. Miles was tho first to placo before tho public a scientific remedy for the treatment of nervous disease-a reme
dy that was the result of years of careful study and patient investigation. Tho remarkable success of tho Restorative Nervlno has attracted much
attention, and as a consequence to-day Dr. Miles has many Imitators, who advertise remedies to cure nervous diseases. A careful Investigation of
the advertisements of these fniffiiOtni w ill show that they are attempting to sell their medicines by means of a great nourish of trumpets rather than
upon their merits ns scleiitlllc and reliable remedies. "Re ye not deceived."
Tho following list of affections will give those persons who hnve paid little attention to the subject an Idea of the number and variety of nervous
diseases, for w hich Dr. Miles' great -floral ire Xrrvtnc, a brain anil nerve ood w well a medicine. Is a new and remarkable remedy. As a very general
rule nervous troubles are not well understood. Most people Imagine that to have ti nervous disorder one must bo nervous shaky. This Is a great
error. A largo proportion of people alllh ted w Ith this class of diseases aro not at all nervous. PJervoun diseases include all affections of the brain
spinal cord or nerves. Thus all head troubles, such us fits, headache, dizziness, dullness, pressure, the blues, mania, melancholy and Insanity aro
nervous disorders, no matter how caused; pain or congestion In the spinal cord, which constitutes most backaches, tenderness of back, etc., are spi
nal or nervous diseases; Neuralgia, St, Vitus dance. Cramps, etc.aro nervous troubles. So, tx, is a largo cluss of disorders which arise from a weak
ness of the nerves of an orgbu or part, as weak lungs, heart, stomach, kidneys, bladder, eyes, etc.
Apoplejry. Pr. Wright says; "In advanc
ing life there Is associated with headache, dizzi
ness, dullness, etc., a great danger of a far more
serious disease, namely, apoplexy, and It Is fortu
nate If It affords you timely warning before tho
blood vessels give way and tho effusion of blood
takes placo."
Itackaehe Is usually caused hy an irritable
or congested state of the spinal cord. It Is of the
same nature as headache, differing only in loca
tion. Dr. Miles has met with many cases in his
private practice in which headache would ex
tend to tho back, while In many others tho pain
would entirely leave the head and go to tho
buck. Not a few people have a weak buck for
several days after headache.
IllliouM Attack. Biliousness is of two
kinds, one being caused by malarial germs in the
systeni.which disturb the stomach and liver; the
other form Is purely nervous, and is duo, liko
sick headache, to an lrrltablo condition of tho
bruin and upper portion of the spinal cord which
derango the nerves going from the upper part of
the cord to these organs. See Sick Headache. If
the Restorative Nervine is taken in three tea
sx)otiful doses at the very beginning of the nt
tak, before tho stomach is much disturbed, tho
attack will almost always be prevented.
llluen, Melancholy. These are not Imag
inary complaints, as some uncharitable and not
well-posted people believo. They aro as distinct
diseases as headache or neuralgia, with which
they aro often associated. They are the result
of an irritable and exhausted condition of the
brain.
Servoti a Jrof raUon-XerroiinneHM,Ker.
rouu y.j-hauittiun. Nervousness is really a
nervelessness, a weakness. It Is the siime as
nervous prostration, only of a less degree. It
is often caused by such forms of nervous Irrita
tions as headache, dizziness, sleeplessness, care,
anxiety, weakness of the heart, stomach, etc.
i'ramiM Are always caused by an irritation
of fhe nerves. They are local spasms. The ner
vous system should be treated. Use the Restor
ative Nervine w Ith confidence. It has performed
many wonderful cures.
Iteltrium TremeuH, Irunkennen,
ItipHutmntia. Alcoholic beverages act pow
erfully upon the bruin and nervous system.
Many persons Inherit a lovo of drink, which may
be so strong as to constitute a form of mania.
Delirium tremens is an acute form of Insanity
caused hy the excessive use of alcoholics. Neu
ralgic pains in the bowels, limbs, etc., frequent
ly attend the habitual Use of liquors. The liver
commonly becomes diseased and the whole nor
vous system impaired.
l)ixUtetm.I)ultneHH, Vertigo, Heart
neu, JPrewwiire iu tho head and many other
disagreeable brain symptoms, wear out the brain
and nerves. Causes and treatment the sumo as
for headache.
mtn. There are two varieties of this dis
order, the first or severe form is characterized by
convulsions and completo loss of consciousness,
The attack usually begins with a cry. The pa
tient falls Insensible, the face becomes pale, the
bead la drawn backward or sldewlso, the mouth
froths; the teeth are ground together, the tongue
Is often bitten. Tho convulsion lasts from two
to five minutes, when It gradually subsides and
consciousness returns, tho patient falls into a
deep sleep, from which ho awakes with a feeling
of exhaustion and confusion of tho mind. In
second or lighter form, known us epileptic
$ the
vertigo or petltmal, tho person suddenly stops;
then goes on as usual.

That repeated or prolonged attacks of these dis
orders of tho brain predispose it to many forms
of disease can bo proven by quotations from a
large number of eminent medical writers. The
pir memory, excessive irritability and nervous
ness which so frequently result from repeated
attacks of headache, indicate Iu an unmistaka
ble manner that the nutrition of tho brain,
and consequently its power of resisting disease,
Is impaired. In almost every case of aiaiplexy,
paralysis, insanity, epileptic convulsions, sun
stroke, Inflammation of tho brain, etc., there has
previously been much headache.
It is well known to oculists that persons hav
ing weak eyes, which aro always more or less
congested, aro much more liable to havo inflam
mation of these organs than those who have
strong ones. In llko manner it can readily be
seeu that persons subject to headache are much
more liable to disease of the brain, as it is an
easy matter for tho congestion, which accom
panies all headaches, to be fanned into inflam
mation. Sick Headache, BlttouH Headache, Bit
toum Attackm, Sick Olddinenn. We speak
of sick headache more at length, than any other
form of this affection, as It is a typical nervous
disorder, and tho ouo with which the majority of
people are most familiar. Not only are the
masses in almost entire Ignorance as to its true
nature, but also physicians. It is commonly
supposed that sick headache is caused by some
dcranuemcnt of tho stomach or liver. This the
ory is unscientific and not sustained by facts.
Everybody knows that injuries and diseases of
tho brain often produce vomiting; that the men
tal impression resulting from tho sight of a dls-
gustlng object will cause sickness of tho Btomach
in many persons. Dr. Miles has demonstrated
that sick headache la also duo to a disturbance
of tho brain. Out of KB cases of this order, of
which lie has kept careful record during the last
few years, every patient stated that the first
symptoms of an attack wore always felt In tho
head, and In some cases hours elapsed before the
stomach became deranged. Sick headache after
a few years usually changes into the nervous
form.
Hot Flanhea Hunh of Blood to the.
Head, Xervouu thill, Xumbnemi, Ten
dernemt of the. Scalp, Irritability of
Temper, roor Memory. These are symp
toms frequently met with in persons of a weak
nervous system; they are duo to nervous irrita
bility or exhaust ion. For them the Restorative
Nervlno is a good remedy.
HuHte rla.Fjree.HHtve Servouuneu:
There are many more hysterical persons than is
usually supposed. There are all dogrees or it,
from impulsiveness to convulsions. Hysterical
people act in haste to repent at leisure. They
are easily elated or depressed, owing to a defect
In the nerve centers. Some will cry one moment
and laugh tho next. Their feelings are often
stronger thun their will. Hysteria is, In reality,
like mauy other weak diseases not a disease It
self, but the effect of one or more doraugemeuts
of the nervous system.
InuanituManla, Melancholy In ex
treme cases these maladies can best be treated
by some specialist, or In an Institution for that
purpose, where special treatment can be given.
In mild cases, or where the services of an expert
cannot be had, few remedies will act better than
the Nervine. It should bo taken In largo doses,
that sleep and quiet may be produced.
Monthly fain, And Too Frequent or
I'rofttHC Mentteit. T hose are always due to
an Irritable state of tho uterine nerves. Tho
Restorative Nervine seldom fails to cure them.
Nervous I) pepsla. At least five-sixths of
tho casos of dyspepsia arise, not from an in
flamed stomach, but from a weakened, debilitat
ed, overworked condition of tho nerves which
control the action of this organ. The brain has
a remarkable influence over the nerves of the
stomach. Care, anxiety, headache, dlzzlness-
etc greatly weaken these nerves. Thus had
news destroys the appetite. Merchants during
panics are noted for being a class of dyspeptics.
No people In the world use their brains so exces
sively as Americans, and none are so subject to
this complaint. The Restorative Nervine soon
soothes the brain, strengthens tho nerves and
cures the dyspepsia or indigestion.
Oplnm and morphine Habits are affec
tions of the nervous Bjstem. These drugs, like
alcoholics, act In small quantities as stimulants
to tho brain and nerves. After being taken for
a time the effect upon the nervous system Is
such that It becomes a habit that is very difficult
to break. Rut. by the aid of the soothing quali
ties of tho Restorative Nervine anyone possess
ing a little resolution can break off this disagree
able, expensive and soul-destroying habit.
Palpitation or Fluttering of the Heart Is
always an indication of a weak heart, and Is due
to weakness of the cardiac nerves. It la not the
harmless affection usually regarded by the phy
sicians. Rheumatism was formerly believed to origi
nate In the blood. but Is now known to be a nervous
disease, like neuralgia, headache, etc. This ex
plains why It mify go from one part of the body
to another so readily, like neuralgia. Were it a
blood trouble every joint would be affected at
the same time. Hy soothing and strengthening
the nervous system, Dr. Miles' Restorative Ner
vine, when taken as directed, Is a remarkable,
remedy for this obstinate and painful disorder.
Klecplesxneas is due to an irritation or con
gested condition of the brain, tho same as head
ache. It soon causes nervous prostration and
usually precedes insanity,
ftpuHins, Convulsion Ktc. No remedy has
ever been discovered that cures a larger propor
tion of cases of this frightful disease than the
Restorative Nervine. If a child or adult shows
any signs of going Into spasms a dose or two will
prevent It. If necessary tho dose may be repeated
often,
(Spinal Irritation. An Irritable or congested
condition of the spinal cord commonly causes
tenderness of the spine, crawling, creeping and
burning sensations and backache. The Restora
tive Nervine Is a reliable medicine for them.
For all these diseases Dr. Miles' Nervine la the
best remedy. It is obtainable at any drug store
at (1 per bottle, or will be sent, prepaid, on re
ceipt of price by the Dr. Miles Medical Co., Elk.
