Is the subtle force which controls the different organs-of the
body.- It makes them strong or weak, healthy or diseased,

weak and diseased. Weak nerves cause headache, nervousness,
neuralgia, indigestion, heart trouble and many other forms of
chronic weakness. Make the nerves strong, the brain clear and
active and the body will be healthy and vigorous.
"Overstrained nerves caused my wife to suffer severely
witli a nervous affection of the lieart called by physicians
neuralgia of the Jheart. Powerful remedies relieved the pain
temporarily, hut all physicians failed to remove the cause or
give permanent relief. A few bottles of Dr. Mies' Nervine
together with. Dr. Miles' New Heart Cure removed all signs
of neuralgia and she has ever since enjoyed excellent health."
