Indl- gestion, nervousness, impoverished blood, liver complaint, all owe their origin to a derangement of the nerve centres. Thousands bear testimony that they have been cured of these troubles, oven when they have become so desperate as to battle the skill of the most eminent physicians, because South American Nervine has gone to headquarters and cured there.
