When a man drops from sheer ex•

on the head and on the ribs. If this does

If a man finds his load too heavy and
feels that it will serion«ly strain him to
proceed, kick off a fence board and knock

of sci-
e n c e
generally, that nervous energy or
nervous impulses which pass
along the nerve fibres, were only
other names for electricity.
This seemingly plausible state-
ment was accepted for a time,
but has been completely aban-
cloned since it has been proved
that the nerves are not good con-
ductors of electricity,and that the
velocity of a nervous impulse is
but 100 fest per second—which
is very much slower than that
of electricity. It is now gener-
ally agreed that nervous energy,
or what we are pleased to call
nerve fluid, is a wondrous, a
mysterious force, in which dwells
life itself.
A very eminent specialist, who
has studied profoundly the work-
ings of the nervous system for
the last twenty-five years, has
lately clemonstratecl that two-
thirds of all our ailments and
chronic diseases are due to de-
ranged nerve centres lvithin or at
the base of the brain.
All know that an injury to the
spinal cord will cause paralysis
to the body below the injured
point. The reason for this is,
that the nerve force is prevented
by 'the injury from. reaching the
paralyzed portion.
When food is taken into the
stomach, it comes in contact
with numberless nerve fibres in
the wall of this organ which at
once send it nervous impulse to
the nerve centres which control
the stomach, notifying them of
the presence of food ; whereupon
the nerve centres send down a
supply of nerve force or nerve
fluid, to at once begin the opera-
tion of digestion. But let the
servo centres which control the
stomach. be deranged and they
will not be able to, respond with
a sufficient supply of nerve force
to properly digest the food, and,
as a result, indigestion and dys-
pepsia make their appearance.
So it is with the other organs of
the body, if the nerve centres
which control them and, supply
them with nerve force become
deranged, they are also derang-
ed.
The wonclerflll success of the
rowedy known as the Great
South American Nervine 'Tonic
is 11110 to the fact that it is pre-
pared by one of the most
eminent physicians and special-
ists of the age, and is based on
the foregoing scientific diseovory
It acts directly on the nerves,
and possesses marvellous powers

ness of Penaales, Hot Flashes,
