llelieves She Was

Saved

I From Stroke oi Paralysis

ALL ONE SIDE WAS COLD AND POWERLEBS WHEN SHE BEGAN USING DR- Ci-iA8E'S NERVE FOOD.

A dead nerve cell can never be re-for Dr. Chase's Nerve ,Food. I was

placed. in this way it is different to other cells oi’ the human body. But feeble. wasted nerve cells can be re- stored, and herein lies hope.

In this fact is also a warning to

take note ot such symptoms as sleep- lessnoss and loss ot energy and am- bition.. and restore the vitality to the nervous system before some form of helplessness results.

Nervous prostrntion, locomotor

atnxia and paralysis are the natural results oi neglecting to keep the nerv es in healthful condition. The use of

Dr. Chase’e Nerve Food when you.

suspect there is-something wrong,l

will soon restore vitality to the ner- vous aystem. and thereby prevent aer- lous developments.

Mrs. Merritt Nichols, R. R. No. 3

Dundalk, Ont., writes: "I take plen-

lure in writing to tell you the great! heneilt. I have derived from the use

, . V , I

so nervous I could not sleep. and found it hard to get my work done at all, but having no help at ._the time, had to do the best I could. Fin- ally my left arm became powerless and cold. end' this continued to get worse until my whole side was nf- fected, head and ell. I decided to try Dr. Chase's Nerve Food. and the ilrst box helped me so much that I used several. and believe that this treatment saved me from having n paralytic stroke. it has built me up wonderfully. and l can reoommeudlt most heartily. believing that if more Nerve Food were used there would be much loss sickness."

Dr. Chasers Nerve Food cures ia

nature-'s way by nourishing the foo- ble, wasted nerves back tq- health and vigor. Fifty cents A 561,111 dollars, or Edmanlon, Bit.ol'_& Limitegb' Toronto. ` ` »
