IFTYOITWORRY, READ THIS Worry never brought any good to anybody. But, yousay, "Idon't worry because I want to, I worry because I can't help it." Or, "I worry because I have so much to worry about.'' We all have our troubles and worry, of course, makes matters worse. The patient generally recognizes this fact without Deing able to profit by it. The doctor who could meet this ner vous condition and cure it would be the most popular medical man alive. Bat he cannot do it because the form of nervous exhaustion known as neuras thenia, of which worry is a characteristic symptom, must bo cured by the patient himself. That is why you should write today for the book "Diseases of the Nervous System" and read the chapter on "Neurasthenia." Bo many people have read it and written back, "This hits my case exactly, I am giving the treatment a trial and being benefited," that the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y. lias had a lot of these books printed and will send you a copy free on request. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a non alcoholic tonic, particularly suited for nervous, neurasthenic people.
