Is it any wonder that men's nerves
are giving out
Look back over the history of the
last few years.
Think of the enormous burden of
responsibility which has been put up-
on the shoulders of business execu-
tives.
The excessive mental strain.
The worry and anxiety.
The physical effort.
This has surely been great enough
to break the nervous systems of the
strongest men.
The war strain.
The unsettled conditions of busi-
ness and employment.
These are responsible for the rapid
aging of men which you notice every-
where.
You feel out of sorts.
You do not sleep well.
You find yourself losing your grip
on business.
Your daily task is more than you
can stand.
There is, perhaps, no organic dis-
ease.
But you find your energy and am-
bition petering out.
Your doctor tells you to take a rest
for a few months.
But you do not want to be put up-
on the shelf.
Your business cannot spare you at
this critical time.
This is the statement
of a specialist on
Nervous Diseases
who comes in con-
tact with many thou-
sands of cases. The
increase in diseases
of the nerves during
the last five years
has been enormous.
Perhaps you cannot afford com-
plete rest when living expenses are
so high.
But you can take things easier.
And you can profit by the experience
of others and build up your exhaust-
ed nervous system by using Dr.
Chase's 'Nerve Food.
This is the most rational treatment
available, end is endorsed by more
common-senie, reliable people than
any medicine\recommended for the
restoration of the nervous system.
Dr. Chase's Neave Food is univers-
ally used by womert,as a means of re-
storing the nervous system. Your
wife, or sister, or mother, will be able
to tell you something `about its re-
markable upbuilding influ nce.
But more men than w nen now
have nervous troubles.
And Dr, Chase's Nerve Foods no
respecter of persons.
It builds up new energy and
strength In the moat natural way irn•
aginable by enriching the blood.
It supplies to the blood in con-
densed, easily assimilated form the
elements which nature requires in or-
der to replenish the depleted nerve
cells and restore the vitality of the
human system.
These certified letters may be from
people you know. They are worth
reading, anyway. For they are the
honest opinion of people who have
been benefited by Dr. Chase's Nerve
Food. FAmanaon, Bates & Co., Ltd.,
Toronto.
Overwork
Dir. D. P'. Armstrong, R. R. No. 3, Mal-
lorytown, Ont., writes: --
"Through overwork and an extra
amount of mental introits, I became very
nervous and rundown. I began using 1)r.
Chase'• Nerve Food, and It certainly
touched the right spot. 11 almost seemed
for • time as though I fairly lived on It. and
I can recommend this, treatment to anyone
requiring a medicine of this kind"
(' Sworn before me at Matlorytown,
this ith day of March, 1921--D. 8. •'low,

Sleeplessness
Mr. W. J. Van loosen, Centre 81., Nap-
anee, ort., writes :-

feelings that follow continual loss of sleep.

thla shim caused • great deal of trouble.
Upon the advire of a friend 1 began a treat-
ment of Dr. Chase's Nerve Food, and soon
found it to be Just what I required. Py the
time I had eompleted the treatment my
system was In splendid condition and I felt
much stronger.'

Mr. Charles K, Tait. Newtown, Klan
