ibie statement was accepted for a
time, but has been completely aban-
doned since it has been proved that
the nerves are not good conductors of
electricity, and that the velocity of a
nervous impulse is but 100 feet per
second—which is very much slower
than that of electricity. It is now
generally agree 1 that nervous energy,
or what we aro pleased to call nerve
fluid, is a wondrous. r -s mysterious
force, in which dwells life itself.
A very eminent specialist, wbo
hoe studied profoundly the workings
of the 12011'0218 system for the last
twenty -live years, has lately demon
-
Armed that two•thirds of all our
ailments and c]ironie diseases are
due to deranged nerve centres within
or at the base of the brain.
All know that an injury to the
spina] cord will ealtae paralysis to the
body below the injured point. The
reason for this is, that the nerve
force is prevented by the injury from
atmac11in11 the paralyzed portion.
Again, when food is taken irate 4he
stomach, it cornea in eOotnot with '
`l
numberless nerve lyres 1u the walls
of this organ, which at, once send a
nervous impulse to the nerve centres
which eon teed the stomach, notifying
them of the presence of fled; where-
upon the nerve centres send clown a,
supply of nerve force or nerve fluid,
to at once begin the operation of
d, gestiou. But lot the nerve centres
which control the stomach be de-
ranged and they will not be able to
respond with a st r.'aient supply of
nerve ioi•eti, to pr.nporly digest the`
food, arid, as a reau;t, indigestion and.
dyspepsia make their appearance.
So it is with the other organs of the.
body, if the nerve c,utros which con-
trol thorn and ru;±ply them with
nerve force bccomo deranged, they
are also deranged.
The wonderful manse of the
remedy known at the Great South
American Nerviuo Tonic is due to
tho fact that it is prepared by one of
the molt eminent physicians and
specialists of the age, and is based
on the foregoing seientifio discovery.
It possesses marvellous powers for
the cure of Nervousness, Nervous
