I1RMILTON ,Oiai7 o) onea ae?en)"a James A. Bell, of Beaverton, Out., brother of the .iter. John W essay Bell, B.D., prostrated by nervous headaches A victim of the trouble for several years. South American Nervine effected a complete ,cure. In their oe'n particular field few men are beter known than the Rev. John Wesley Bell, B.D., and his brother Mr. James A. Bell. The former will ee re- cognized by his thousands of friends all over tbe country as the popular and able missionary superintendent of the Royal Wanders of Temperance. Among the 20,000 members of this order in Ontario his counsel is sought on all sorts of oc- casions. On the public platform he is one of the strong igen of the day, nettling against the evils of intemperance. Equally well known le Mr. Bell in other provinces of the Dominion, having been for years a member of the Manitoba .Methodist Conference and part of this lime was stationed in Winnipeg. His brother, Mr..ir_n:os A. Bell, is a highly respected resident of Beaverton, n•nere Ida influence, though perhapa more cir- cunierribed than that of his eminent brother, is mune the lees effective and productive of coml. Or recent years bpw- Pver, the working ability of Mr. James A. Bell has been racily marred by severe attacks of nervous heartache, accom- panied by inclig,wtiou, Who can do fit work wbeu this trouble takes hold of them end especially when it becomes chronic, as was, seemingly, the case with Mr. Bell? The trouble reached such in. tensity that last June he was complete- ly prostrated. In this condition a. friend recommended South American Nervine. Ready to try anything and everything, though be thought he had covered the list of proprietary medicines, he secured a bottle of this great discovery. .d second bottle of the medicine was taken and the work was done. Employing b.* own language: "Two bottles of South American Nervine immediately .relieved my headaches and have buim up my, system in a wonderful manner." Let us not deprecate the good our clergymen and social reformers are doing in the world, but how ill -fitted they would be for their work were it not the relief that South American Nervine brings tee them when physical ills overtake them, and when the system, as a res cult of bard, earnest and continuous work, breaks down. Nervine treats the system as the wise reformer treats the evils he is battling against. It strums at the root of the trouble. All die. ease comes from disorganization of the nerve centers. This is a scientific fact. Nervine at once works on these nerve centers; gives to them health and vig- or; and then there courses through the system strong, healthy, life-mamitatning blood, and nervous troubles of every variety are things of the past.
