Until Dr. Miles* Nervine
Cured Me.
Are you in a "poor condition?" Are you
almost ready to give up from exhaustion,
nervousness headaches, backaches, and

tails of a run down or "poor condition" to
those who are suffering. Better U> tell you
of Nervine, the remedy sold on a guarantee
to help you, and restore your poor weakened
nerves to life, strength and health.
"Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine has done
a great deal for me. Jn the fall of 1897 my
health was in a very poor condition. Ex
treme nervousness, dizzy spells and sick
headaches made me most miserable. I, had
been under the care of our local physician
for some time, but got no better. I was on
the verge of nervous prostration. Had no
appetite, and could not sleep. 1 grew worse
a*> the dizzy spells continued and lo?t flesh
and strength. Oh! those awful day.-._ A
lady friend who had taken Restorative Ner
vine advised me to try it. I bought a bottle
;it the local drug store and when it was one
lia 112 gone I noticed that the medicine was
helping me. I continued taking it according
lo directions until I had used three bottles
when I felt so much better I stopped taking
it. I feci that my present yreatly improved
health is all due to Dr. Mi es' Restorative
Nervine. lam gr.iteful for the benefit 1 re
ceived and recommend the Nervine wholly
on its merits as a nerve tonic and restora
live."—MßS. I'. M. IIOUOBOOM, Dalton,
